    Yeah, I saw 'em live last year.
    They were good. I'd definitely recommend going to see 'em.

    As good as they were, though, their opening band, As Tall As Lions, really stole the show.

    Thanks for the replies everyone. A band called the Cave Singers is opening. Never heard of them but I definitely plan to hit up the show.

    They were the second band that I ever saw live! Back in 2008, it was amazing!

    Great show last night, thanks all for encouraging me to go. Was surprised at how spot on they sounded in comparison to their studio recordings. Good times! :)

    You all know that Cold War Kids performed a live show at Jack White's Third Man Records, right? Get it here:

    Good stuff, and if your ever in Nashville, you should check out the store and United Record Pressing where great quality vinyl is still being pressed.

    Depending on how much of a vinyl collector you are, around 300 copies +/- are always pressed on black and blue split vinyl from all live shows at Third Man Records. Beautiful looking, but you must attend the actual show to pre-purchase the black and blue copy. I now own 4. Ebay is where they can be found.

    Haven't really listened to them since their first two albums but picked up their latest album, not too bad.

    I don't really care for their first two albums. They kinda hit their stride with Mine Is Yours and I've liked everything they've put out since. I think New Age Norms 1 is better than 2 though.
