Sweet and Low | Augustana

I think I’ll start it over, where no one knows my name,
I’ll get out of California, I’m tired of the weather,
I think I’ll get a lover and fly him out to Spain...
Oh yeah and I think I’ll go to Boston,
I think that I’m just tired
I think I need a new town, to leave this all behind...
I think I need a sunrise, 
I’m tired of the sunset, 
I hear it's nice in the Summer, 
some snow would be nice... 
oh yeah…

My first time seeing Augustana — now, a one-man show — but the music was still there, though the acoustics at this small, yet cozy venue made it difficult to hear his vocals. Dan Layus appeared tired (he told us he WAS tired and sick, but the show must go on!). He was determined to give us the best show he could despite his condition. “You still showed up with my f**ked up voice, and love me any way…” Ahh, Boston, yes we do.
Opening act: Colony House. My take: young, skinny jeans, Tennessee really? Good fun.
