Dean Wareham

I am not into nostalgia or reunion shows but I am a fairly big fan of galaxies 500. And dean wareham. So my bro-in-law wanted tickets for Xmas. And he wanted to go with me. So I obliged him. It turned out to be a very good show. I am amazed that he could play the old songs with such passion. The music was really rocking too. He turned each song into a Jan session. One problem was that dean had a cold so he couldn't hit all those high notes in songs like "when will you come home" in general, it's very strange music to listen to in a concert setting and I think that's what made it so special. The set list was not something I was worried about. I knew it would be "on fire" with the select hits from the other albums. And I was right. The crowd was good. They roared like a lion. I recommend this to older fans of galaxies 500 and they're bfriends/friends neophytes who just heard the name and want to know what all the hoopla was about.

It was my first time I saw him life... he is such a character. Even when the members of the band aren't the original they sound like they where...
