They Might Be Giants

Last night I saw They Might Be Giants perform at Celebrate Brooklyn in Prospect Park. The opening band was the electrifying Moon Hooch.

I wasn't that familiar with They Might Be Giants but over the years many friends had said I would like them. I got a good taste of their music last night -- fun, quirky, poppy, dynamic. But the sound system was off. The bass was too loud and we couldn't hear the lyrics. Because of the style of songwriting, it was sucky not to be able to hear the words, so we left about two thirds into the set.

I think I'll download some of their music to listen to at home...
