So I stole the title of this post from Patrick and TitusAndronicus.net. Very unoriginal of me, but Patrick's blog title was so perfect that I had to lift it.
Anyway, the title is in reference to the fact that we played a show at United Palace Theatre, opening for Vampire Weekend. Do I like Vampire Weekend? Do I dislike Vampire Weekend? My opinion of their music is irrelevant. What is will say is that these dudes put on an incredibly tight show, and had a lot of fun doing it. If you enjoy the Vampire Weekend records, you should see them live.
So, how did Titus Andronicus fare? I'll tell you what, playing to a crowd of 3,000+ people who didn't come to see you, with two band members that had never played a show with Titus Andronicus before, could have been a recipe for disaster, but in true Titus spirit, we endured. All things considered, I think that the show went pretty darn well.
Over the next few months, there will be lots of practicing done. We are going to work very hard to make sure that everybody at a TA show gets their money's worth. I hope you're ready, kids.....Titus Andronicus will be.
Here's a video of Sunday's opening number.
