Titus Andronicus. The kind of band I wish I could create. Despite most of the crowd not having a clue who they were, they played their hearts out. During the first song, "My Time Outside The Womb," Andrew, their lead singer/guitarist/keyboardist, jumped on top of an amp, and it promptly fell over. He did it with such energy and recklessness that you could tell he was just feeling the music. Despite the intensity he displayed, the crowd still did not join in until "Fear and Loathing in Mahweh, NJ" (most likely because of the 5 minutes it took to reset the amp), when everyone knows the giant "FUCK YOU". Despite the simple awesomeness of that song, the highlight of the set was the self-titled "Titus Andronicus" when no one can resist the catchy "no more cigarettes, no more having sex, no more drinking til you fall on the floor", and the clapping that even non-fans were able to join in on. Overall, this was a great show to start off the new year with.
