[ATTENDED: March 9, 2019] Sean McVerry
After seeing Aurora in New York last year, I knew I’d go see her again if she came back to the States. So I was pretty excited that she was scheduled to play Union Transfer. I bought three tickets–one for me, one for S. and one for T. This was going to be her first club show. She had been to an arena to see Katy Perry, but I thought this experience would be really different for her.
Going in, she honestly wasn’t quite as excited about the whole thing as I thought she’d be. I guess we’ve been to enough performances that this one didn’t seem very different. We found a great spot against one of the lower raised sections. This allowed S. and T. to rest against the wall and still have a great view.
Before the show, I listened to one or two songs from the opening act, Talos, and liked what I heard–atmospheric and keyboardy with high vocals and a cool rocking undercurrent. So I was surprised when a nicely dressed fellow came out with an acoustic guitar. (more…)
