FUCKING AMAZING! The group played ALL FIVE songs!
Three friends and I left about 6 (the show started at eight) and picked up pizza on the way there. After driving around and getting semi-lost trying to find the place (it's in a house) we got there about 8. Said our hello's and introduced ourself and stuff. It was kind of awkward at first, but everybody got really comfortable. My gang sat around in the place and drew, because they had the sketch pads. Then we played board games and played with sock-puppets and talked with Greg and Forbes. There was a pretty good turn-out. I counted at one time and I think there was 25 people in there.
So Kayo Dot took the stage at 9:15 or so and started off with Marathon. I just heard d.j. say "this is gonna be fun" and then I saw Sam's arms go up and BOOM! Fucking Amazing. Next came Pitcher of Summer, which is my favorite song. Then came The Manifold Curiousity. All of Toby's voice effects went really well. During that song Ryan left the stage and ran somewhere and we found out later that he went to puke. Next came the beautiful Wayfarer. It was soooooo relaxing to just close your eyes and listen. And then when you did open your eyes, it was really cool to see Mia goin' at her violin. Next was Antique, which was my least favorite song on the album, but now I love it. Everybody right of Sam (Greg, Forbes, Ryan, and d.j.) was head-banging pretty hard. Overall, it was fucking amazing to see them play all of their songs. d.j. was fucking around alot and during one song he got a "spotlight" (flashlight) and was shining it on Toby. d.j. and Ryan were talking alot during the show, but we found out afterwards that it was because they were trying to sort of technical difficulties.
After the show, we bought all of our Kayo gear so we'd be all pimped out. We just kept telling them that we wanted to give them money. Then we talked to the gang for two hours. It was really amazing to talk to Forbes and Toby and Greg (occassionally Mia would say a few words, but she was pre-occupied with the gameboy) about all sorts of music and stuff. Toby even told us that he's usually not that sociable at shows. So here's the pics:
A few of the Kayo Crew (including d.j., who told me that he poses for all of his shots) eating our pizza
This is just a friend and Forbes when we took Forbes to the gas station to get food:
Greg talked to us for a while 'bout music and such (i got this shot by laying on the floor):
Yeah:
