‘Muse’ and ‘Cold War Kids’ Rock Madison Square Garden

Last night’s Muse & Cold War Kids concert at MSG brought ‘rock’ back to the rock show.

In recent years I’ve been bored by “rock” concerts that were half-assed and lacked energy. Not last night! Muse left everyone in the arena saying, “wow WTF just happened! I’m deaf, I have sea legs because the arena was literally shaking, my eyes are blinded from the Kiss-esque visual effects and I’m completely happy that I spent $40 bucks on that ticket.”

Cold War Kids, the opening act, have a sound that’s soulful and chill, plus any band that busts out a Sax solo is cool in my book. CWK will benefit greatly from this stint with Muse and I’m looking forward to seeing them again in NYC.

After the jump check out the pictures and a sweet bootleg vid of “Plug in Baby.” (more…)
