Sigur Rós at the United Palace Theater

Posted by Greg T. on September 19th, 2008 in New York, Videos

I saw Sigur Ros last night with an Icelandic coworker.  I had opted to buy front row tickets from ticketsnow.com, which turned out to be 2nd row tickets for a 3x face value markup.  Nonetheless, it was a ridiculously awesome show.  They came across as a totally different band, way more energy and nuance than they could ever convey on an album.  I wish I’d bought tickets and a time machine for the night before last.

Here’s a little video:  ”glósóli”

Here are some photos from the show:

Toward the end they said “come up!” as the concert was in a theater of sorts, not a concert venue, so everyone was confined to their seats.  So every one got up and gathered around the stage.
