The Avett Brothers!!!

Yesterday afternoon i watched one of the most enjoyable concerts that i've been to in a while. i only got to catch the opening act called the mad tea party on their last song which was pretty good. their band consisted of a upright bass player who doubled as a kick drum player a ukulele and guitar player also. when the avett bros came on they opened with a tune off of their new album which was really good. the thing that really amazed me was that the banjo player was using a kick drum an the guitar player was using a cymbal, which was blended very natural into the performance. during the show their were parts where i was feeling like i was attending a wild punk rock show ( the banjo player stood on the kick drum). also there were parts were they used their instruments as percussion in very energetic break downs.
so over all if you like bands that put on one hell of a fun show then remove thy asses from the couch and go watch them if they come around your town.
