Two Door Cinema Club @ The Hollywood Palladium

This is a story about a concert i went to (in September) and absolutely loved. I went to see Two Door Cinema Club at the Hollywood Palladium, pretty damn cool right. But anyways, lets start with the opening bands, St.Lucia and The Friends. St.Lucia is one of my all time favorites and to be honest, their records don't do them justice, way better live. Their whole set had this feel good vibe that was absolutely lovely! And their bass player was hot.Then came the second group, The Friends. Their overall performance was OK, i really enjoyed the instrumentals and the lead singer had a unique voice, but what won me over(and lost the rest of the crowd) was how fucking weird they were. These were the only stage dives of the night, their outfits were crazy, and we channeled our energy to call out aliens during the show. It was awesome.
Partying between the sets, getting toes stepped on

The Hollywood Palladium is a huge venue, and there were an overwhelming amount of people there, and everything is general admission, which i prefer in small venues because you can just sit down inbetween the sets, but this was full on sweating bumping into people which was pretty cool and uncomfortable at the same time. Except for the part where this really large girl jumped on my toe and broke it. fun. But this didn't stop anyone from enjoying the headlining band. Two Door Cinema Club has this really classy feel to it, they're like an actually good British "boy-band" but they don't have that super popular crap sound. Their energy was also really good and they had everyone in the crowd singing. The bands talent pleases me so much, and i loved hearing songs off their new record "Beacon" sung live, because they were a fresh sound. I don't mean to be like one of those annoying music junkies that's like "They sound so much better live.", but they really do sound so much better live, just wow! Overall a pretty great concert that made so many amazing memories. And a broken toe.
