They Might Be Giants 'The Else' Review

They Might Be Giants just kicked off their tour for their new album The Else.  The album will be released in a few weeks to itunes, and then to stores in July.  Their first stop was at The Stone Church in New Hampshire just last night.  It was a great show.  The club only fit a few hundred and they easily sold it out for two shows.  They played a good mix of new and old songs.  We got a good taste of their new album.  Apparently there will also be a bonus CD.  My favorite new song is actually a track on the bonus CD.  We live in a Dump, or something like that.  It was catchy and fun. A handy wiki can be found here for those looking for more info.

Their performance style is relaxed and casual.  They chatted with the crowd, and with the light crew.  They love their crew it turns out!  Oh, and they are doing some sort of contest.  Beards vs No Beards.  So far it is a tie at 1-1.  Not sure if only the lighting guys count.  At any rate, I recommend the CD and the show if you can make it.  Catch their podcast as well.  I think they sneak songs in there from time to time.

Update: Oops, I had that the CD was released in June.  I meant July.
