Grizzly Bear at the Orpheum - Sept 22


I saw Grizzly Bear at the Orpheum in Boston last night and it was probably the best show I've seen from them so far out of the four shows I've been to.  They were definitely much tighter than last time I've seen them in Boston and have quite the impressive light show these days (you can see some jelly-fish looking things in the photo above which were doing some crazy stuff throughout the night).  They played most of their new album (every song from it except "The Hunt"), as well as some of their older tunes ("Shift", "Knife", "Lullaby", "Two Weeks", "All We Ask", "While You Wait for the Others", "Cheerleader", "Ready, Able", and "Foreground").  My only real complaint was at times it sounded like they were a little stuck inside the songs they were playing with some of the tunes off the new album, but overall it was a really amazing show.  If you haven't checked out their new album "Shields" which came out Tuesday I highly recommend it.  Here's a track from it if you'd like to check it out.
