GIAC kept their set short and to the point, including the tracks “Road to Home”, “Clumsy” and “Their Cell” but the one song that stood out that night was “Say”. The live version of that song surpasses the album cut by a million miles. Very driving and keen, that has to be one of the best songs I’ve heard in a long while.
Overall: The excitement for discovering a band and getting to see them live for the first time hasn’t happen in a great while. Call it being jaded or cynical with the current state of music but from the few tracks I heard online previously, I couldn’t wait.
Girl In A Coma did not disappoint one bit. Their plans for 2008 include plenty of touring to support their new record, with a possible tour with indie darlings Tegan and Sara in the fall. Be sure to check their website or their MySpace page.
