Immoral, Illegal or Fattening |
"Anything in life that's any fun is either immoral, illegal or fattening". - "The Girl in Blue" by P.G. Wodehouse. For archives of old reviews and posts, visit iifblog.wordpress.com. |
If you’ve ever encountered The Format or fun., or Nate Ruess in any sort of capacity, you know that this lead singer is an absolutely brilliant songwriter with a voice that will knock you over. And he and the other members of fun. gave a hell of a show the other night at Webster Hall. Highlights include:
- Nate Ruess being the sweetest, most energetic/enthusiastic guy on the planet
- Nate Ruess’ voice being even better in person
- The crowd of enormous fans going absolutely nuts the whole time
- The band performing “Dog Problems” (by The Format- one of my favorites)
- The Gambler.
Easily one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to.
P.S. I particularly like the hipster pick-up lines: “Nice jeggings”. Yikes.
