Death Cab for Cutie Live

A few weeks back I got to see one of my favourite bands, Death Cab for Cutie, play live.

This was the second time I'd seen them play – actually, technically it was the third; I'd seen them as the second support act for Something For Kate maybe twelve years ago – and both times it was at the same venue, HQ. It's an interesting spot for bands to play 'cause it's mostly known as a mainstream nightclub. But it's actually a great place for gigs because of the layout – a few different levels – and the sound's always been great as well. Over the years I've seen bands like The Dandy Warhols, You Am I, the aforementioned Something for Kate, George and (one of my all-time favourite gigs) They Might Be Giants there.
