Today: at MSG for a matinee! Vampire Weekend Sunday afternoon show.
Daytime is cool! Tons of families with young kids. Place is pretty full, I'm in the cheap seats, literally. Maybe the worst seat I've ever had here. As much as I hate to admit it, the Garden has got the livemusic thing down. A great place to see a show, miraculously hassle-free... If you can make it past the facial recognition, of course.

I believe Vampire Weekend is now my most extreme small-to-big spread, from "saw em in a tiny room before they were somebodies" to "saw em at the Garden."
They were on a showcase bill in a small half-filled bar in the Lower East Side playing before Apollo Sunshine many years ago. I think they were still in college. I misremembered them as Vampire Vacation when I wrote up the show for my old blog. I still think that's a cooler name.
