Snow Patrol...A Tour For Lovers


No, not the folks who help riders and skiers off the mountain when they get in over their heads, but the rock group. I actually caught them in concert at Key Arena in Seattle on Tuesday night and they REALLY rock. Of course their music is absolutely fabulous, especially "Chasing Cars" *sigh*, but they also put on a totally sick light show and bang it out to the extreme. If you can catch them on their North American Tour, it is one that I would recommend that you see with someone you love...romance is definitely the genre of this tour and it is meant to be shared with someone you can wrap your arms around while you sing softly in their ear. Of course in the mosh pit it would be a good trick to hear anyone or anything but the band, but better to have someone to hold than not;-) Besides, why anyone would go to a rock concert and sit off the floor in the seats is beyond me. Not that I could hear or speak above a hoarse whisper for the next day or so, but who cares...too much fun!!! Oh, and the opening local band Steam Ship Under People, followed by Ok Go were totally bomb in their own right. Snow Patrol played out their gig and then followed up with a half hour encore...you have to love catching these guys at the the beginning of their tour;-)
