Anyone seen a Destroyer show? I'm beggining to see what a grower Rubies is and I'm really hoping it translates well live.

Saw em befor Rubies, they rocked, surprisingly, even on the slower numbers. Usually Bejar isnt quite fucked up by the time the Destroyer set starts, so its pretty tight.

So it was OK. I'd give the show a 6 outa 10. The main problem was that they played the whole set on electric guitars when a lot of the album uses an acoustic, which MAKES Destroyers sound, imo. I know they just wanted to make it loud, but I would have been into the music more if it sounded more like it does on the album. The guitars were so loud, you couldn't really make out the vocals, which is another of Destroyers strengths.

I managed to takes some pictures of the opening band, Pequod, and Destroyer. You can see them here ---> http://www.flickr.com/photos/21279408@N ... 6275/show/

I screwed up and uploaded more of the Pequod pics and now I gotta wait till my upload limit resets, but you can still see a couple Destroyer pics.
