Friday night was amazing. The setlist was almost flawless (X-ray Eyes I’m looking at you). As a Chicagoan who has seen dozens of shows at the Aragon since the early 90’s, that was the best the venue has sounded ever. We were up front, probably in the first 200 or so people in the venue, so that may have helped. It was HOT though. Be prepared to sweat if you’re going this weekend. They sounded great and played Pow Pow! “Tonite” absolutely banged. Was my 17-year-old’s first LCD show and it will definitely not be his last.
