Kings of Laidback



Thanks to upstart concert promoter Intercept! and indie label Kindassault, I had the pleasure of watching one of my favorite acts, the Kings of Convenience perform live last week. The guys were charming and funny, and most of all, they sounded terrific. Very close, in fact, to their recordings.

I went with only two important requests in my head, and while "Cayman Islands" came after just a few songs, I would go home not having heard "Homesick." But what do you know? They reserved that for the very last song of their encore. Thank you, guys.

Anyway, now that the two above entities are in existence, I kind of want to start a petition for them to bring in Phoenix. One can always dream.
