Concert Review: Girls Swoon for Fab Two at Fox Theater Oakland March 5, 2010 - Page 2

A couple of crazy moments materialized, however. A small group of ravers lost control of their glow-sticks, one of which sailed past Sara’s head. This lead her to ask the crowd, “If you are deciding to throw something at me, make it something soft, like a gerbil, that I can bring with me on the bus.” Tegan suggested money. Then someone threw a fake flower, freaking her out because a beer cup flew at her earlier. She also warned a drunken lady who’d been air groping the duo the whole time that she could fall over the railing. The majority of the Bay Area fan club, lacked enough physical energy . Still, this was not enough to detract from an amazing show

    Sounds like you enjoyed the show! I was in the front row of the balcony as well but off to the left. Loved them, but can't necessarily say the same about the crowd. Thanks for the review.

    Yeah, oops. I just googled it and found a Beatles cover band. My article is sandwiched between their home page and Facebook page.

    Geez, Homer Simpson "d'oh". As for the balcony, all I can say is who sits the whole time at a rock concert? Also, I read another review where they said the front row was basically emotionally paralyzed by Tegan and Sara. One was whispering "I think I'm going to cry." That's both funny and cute at the same time. Loosen up! Still I loved hearing the songs sung live with great energy.
