Headed up to the Granada for the Passion Pit show. These guys had been getting a pretty fair amount of buzz but had a slight bit of backlash I had noticed on their new album (which I have not yet listened to by the way). They were actually incredibly solid and brought some great dance/disco rock-ish kind of jams to the stage with pretty good energy. The crowd was very bizarre due to many reasons, including the Granada’s decision to have reserved seats for this show, which was basically a dance rock show, so there was a bit of a clash in styles right there.
Harlem Shakes was the opener and I thought they were actually really good for the brief amount that I heard them, but I missed 90% of their set unfortunately.
Anyway, they had some great songs, very upbeat and well done, although the crowd was kind of weird, it still was a solid show, though not quite mind-blowing, but very solid. I’m sure if I was more familiar with the songs I might have been a little bit more into it.

Check out all of my photos from the show below. Also, I have put up a new photo system that is going to take the place of the old gallery. It will be better integrated into the website and should be more user-friendly, check it out.
