We The Kings / Feb 7, 2009 / Uni of ME / Machias, ME

One of the oddest shows I’ve been to in awhile. First of all, we found out the the show was at a university, which is fine and dandy. Then we realized it was in an auditorium. Like, with those shitty seats fold down seats that they only use in sketchy movie theatres (you know the ones – they have ‘Dollar Nite’ and only show outdated movies like Lindsay Lohan’s award-wining film “Herbie Fully Loaded” and “Drive Me Crazy” with the guy from ‘Entourage.’) So yeah, it felt like we were in a high school assembly. It actually turned out alright because this way you could see the stage well even from the back. This was one of the off-tour shows of The Secret Valentine Tour so unfortunately we didn’t get to see The Cab, The Maine, VersaEmerge or There For Tomorrow. Luckily We The Kings brought their ridiculous antics, great songs and a sweet new lighting set-up which more than made up for it.
