Last night we saw Nickelcreek and this was one of the best shows I have ever seen in my life. Keep in mind that I am, at best, a lukewarm Nickelcreek fan and when I heard their 2nd cd for the first time, about halfway through, I told Bob that if there was a song about a unicorn I was throwing the thing out the window. But last night’s show was spectacular. They played for three hours. They played two encores and then for the last two songs they played completely unplugged. They invited the remaining audience to scooch up towards the front and the audience was very quiet and they played two songs (sorry I never know the names of songs). I thought I was going to cry. Completely amazing.
