Dr. Dog, Gomez, The Black Keys at The Arena, Brisbane
Dr. Dog, Gomez, and The Black Keys played The Arena last night. It was the best rock show I've been to in a long time.
Dr. Dog opened and I'm pretty sure they played Worst Trip, The Ark, The Beach, The Old Days, and a few others. They were easily my favorite new-to-me band of 2008. I first heard them on yrock on xpn and soon after bought their new album, Fate. They rocked.
While I went to the show to see the opening act, the second opener Gomez turned out to be awesome. I'm definitely going to need to check out some more of their work.
The Black Keys headlined and were incredible - those two guys had so much energy. They're touring a bit more in Australia and then heading back to my hometown area. They'll be at the Electric Factory in Philly in Feb - word is they sold out the TLA so quickly the show got moved.
