What a great reunion this turned out to be! The band hadn’t played an official live show since 2009, and this was the first time doing an acoustic set in front of a large audience. The crowd tried to eat their food and pretend like we were background music, but by the time we busted out “It’s the End of the World…” they couldn’t resist jumping out of their seats to dance and sing along with us. The energy level never dropped and we were begged for encores. We obliged.
Jake forever.
