Featured Review

I think the Death Cab show at the Greek theater was one of the best indie shows I have seen in a long time. Ra Ra Riot and Andrew Bird were incredible. Andrew Bird played during the rain and when he finished an enormous rainbow appeared over the back side of the theater. It was so huge you could see almost the whole thing, from beginning to end. Death Cab played a decent set with a lot of old songs and a few off their new EP. Ben was amazing as always and the lighting they had was just enough to set the perfect mood for each song. I would highly recommend this show.

Opening act(s): Ra Ra Riot opened and I thought that they were much better than The New Pornographers who played second. The lead singer of The New Pornographers sounded like he popped out of the Medieval Times. @

On July 19 Death Cab For Cutie played a great show at the park. It was the first time I had seen them in concert and it was quite unforgettable! Not only was their music good but they had excellent stage presence. They played all of their best songs and a couple of new ones. I was overall very impressed by their performance.

Fantastic and contemporary are only a few of the many words I can use to describe the amazing performance. They are an amazing band that has the abillity to sound as good on stage as they do in the recording studio. Benjamin Gibbard's voice was truly perfect the whole time he sang. Chris Walla's performance on the guitar was brilliant, especially when he faced the audience. Drummer extrordinair, Jason McGerr, was right on cue with his beats and Nick Harmer was probably the most lively person I've ever seen on bass (no joke). dancing and singing along with the music. I would have to say it was truely a crazy fun scene.

tears of joy. the location was great, the weather perfect. ra ra riot was surprisingly good, while the new pornographers were surprisingly bad, except for one of their singers who looked like Moses. LOL when deathcab came on, oh boy they were absolutely spectacular. they didn't play my favorite song so I yelled it out. we got an unbelievable encore, with my favorite song first! it was truly great. best concert I have ever been to in my life. the tshirts and other souvenirs were reasonably priced too. all in all, no disappointments.

McMennamins did a good job getting us parked, into the gates and meeting our needs while at the concert. Never a line at the porta-potties, but needed more ice cream vendors. The trees were a bonus.

Death Cab for Cuite (DCfC) chose two wonderful bands as intros.

The show that DCfC put on was great. Sound was very good as was the light show. Their stage presence great. Played all my favorite songs. I'll need to add a couple to my iPod too. The encore felt contrived, but I've not been to a concert in years so may be out of touch.

Death Cab has written some of my favorite songs of late. I enjoyed singing along to the coolest lyrics; "I will possess your heart", "Little Bribes", and especially "I will follow you into the dark" Being raised Catholic, that is just the coolest song ever!!! Thank you for this concert, my friend and I had a blast- we stood the whole time, and didn't even notice- these performers were just so energizing! Thank you Death Cab for Cutie, you all rock, and make our lives better as a result!

Death Cab rocked... which isn't really a compliment. The show was too rock-out for me. I've been a fan since their early days, and the whole middle of their set was songs from the new album played in full rock-n-roll mode. I was bored for half the show.
I'll always be a fan, but I hope they get back to more acoustic stuff soon.

Phenomenal. For someone whose two favorite bands are DCFC and T&S, the fact that this show even existed was a dream come true. Being able to go see it with my sister and two friends; well, words so great have yet been made to describe my joy. The great atmosphere at the Bowl along with the laid back feeling of picnickers surrounded by the hills was a cool and easy environment to watch in. And having TNP as the opening act? When the first band on stage is as experienced and amazing as they were, you know that you're in for a real treat. The entire time they were on, I was bouncing in my seat (practically knocked my sister off the seat during a few songs). As soon as they exited the stage (to a well deserved roar of applause), I began to get really excited, and before I even knew it, Tegan and Sara were on stage, playing all of their biggest songs. They stuck mainly to songs off of "The Con", but threw in a few from "So Jealous", and even reached back and played "Living Room". To end their set, they played a crowd pleasing and very rockin version of "back in your head". At this point, i thought that I had actually passed into another world. How could this night get any better, right? Well then with the sun setting over the iconic Hollywood sign the guys of Death Cab took the stage and began to play. The acoustics were amazing. We were sitting pretty far back, and it still sounded as if Mr. Gibbard himself was playing a private set in my backyard. They played through a lot of songs off of "Narrow Stairs", but also reached back and played many crowd pleasers off of other albums like "Transatlanticism" and "Plans". For me, one of the greatest sights was seeing my twin sister (a self-proclaimed "rocker" and metal fan) singing along to "Crooked Teeth" and "The Sound of Settling". What a great moment for us to share! The real kicker was the last two songs. At this point, the LA Philharmonic had come out and was playing amazing support behind the band. They completely thrilled the entire audience and had me half melted into the ground when they powered out "Soul Meets Body" (my favorite song ever, by the way =]), and then melted all of our hearts with an amazing first verse of "Transatlanticism". As the song progressed, they gradually built up the intensity of the music and at the end (during the repetitive lines of "i need you so much closer" and "so come on"), with the LA Phil filling our ears and shaking the ground beneath our feet, they hammered home the last 5 min of the song as coordinated fireworks exploded perfectly in time with each passing strum of the guitar. The end of the song blended perfectly into an explosion of fireworks rivaling the best that i had seen on any Fourth of July. Along with the thousands surrounding me I screamed, shouted, jumped, and managed to catch a precious thirty seconds of it on my camera. Whenever I'm feeling even a little bit down, i watch it back and remember how lucky I was to be able to experience something that, for me, was so incredible. How lucky I am.
