Low and His Name is Alive were pretty amazing on Tuesday night. Ethan, Courtney, and I went and met up with Mike and Matt. His Name is Alive played some really old songs, reaching way back to Home Is In Your Head for “Are We Still Married?” and at least one song that sounded familiar from Mouth By Mouth, later confirmed to be “Cornfield” by Adam. Of course, I’m sure alternate versions have been released from the many cd-r releases that have come out that I don’t have. It was like the show Rich and I went to in like 1997 or 1998. Weird. Low was much better than their last trip to Philadelphia and the sound was better than their first performance in the Unitarian Sanctuary. They don’t play many of the pre-Kranky era songs live these days. I would kill (ha ha) to hear “Violence” or “Above and Below”. Jess will be here this weekend and we’re off to see the Saxon Shore/mewithoutyou show downtown. It’s apparently sold out already, so you’re out of luck. It’s a benefit show, but I’m looking at it more like a battle of the bands and am expecting the Saxons to notch…
