Tokyo Poice Club - Cine El Rey McAllen TX 03-12-2009

The show started a little late. Doors were supposed to have opened at 6:30, we waited until 7:10 to get inside. Didn't help much with the cold front we had come in the day before. Anyway, finally got inside, went straight to the merch table and bought a shirt and the "Elephant Shell" LP, noticed there was another band on he bill that i didn't see on the initial flyer called Ruby Coast. I didn't see the new flyer until after the show. They went after one of the local bands called Big League. After Ruby Coast was Ra Ra Riot, whom i had heard of but never heard their music before. Then came Tokyo Police Club! They practically played every song ever made by them, since they don't have too many songs released yet obviously, with two EP's and one LP. So every song was a sing along. People dancing and cheering the whole time, it even got a little rowdy, which was kind of weird. There were some drunks running around starting moshes during some of the more upbeat songs they played and even crowd surfing. I got hit in the head by a crowd surfer and was being pushed forward towards the people directly against the barrier in front of us for some time as well towards the end of the concert. The played all the songs off of the albums pretty much how anyone would remember hearing their recordings except for "The Harrowing Adventures of" which singer David Monks opened up the song with an acoustic guitar and then right when the song picks up he runs to the guitar tech to go get his electric and continue to finish the song. And the band started a slow instrumental opening for "Listen To The Math", one of my favorite songs. It was amazing the way they arranged the song live. They ended the concert and then left the stage and the crowd cheered for an encore for a couple of minutes. They came back out and played one of their songs and then had Ruby Coast and Ra Ra Riot come on the stage to sing a cover of The Clash's song "Train In Vain". They all sang and danced and ended the concert in a very memorable way. In all it was one of the most fun i'd had at a concert, mainly because i go to a lot of hardcore shows and don't get to see too many alternative/indie bands play. If it hadn't of been for lack of money i was going to go to their next show the day after at The White Rabbit in San, Antonio. Ah well.



here are the flyers for the show:




here are some of my pics:




















and this video i found, not from the show i attended but another one of the cover of "Train In Vain" in New Orleans, LA a couple days before.
