Japandroids - Near To The Wild Heart Of Life (Jan 27, 2017) Album • Page 26

"True Love and a Free Life of Free Will" might just be the best song of their career.

 

Yeah that one is a stunner for sure. I probably enjoy the last two tracks more but it's up there with my favorites.

 

which Philly friends are going to the show and which need an extra Friday ticket for the sold out show? @jordalsh @sophos34 @Deathco_019 @Zac Djamoos

 

I am going and may potentially want an extra. If anyone mentioned knows somebody specific who wants to go though they can take it. I don't know anyone specific but I might be able to find someone

 

lemme know i have two under my name, was going to go with a friend but his DC ticket was will call and i'm staying the whole weekend in philly anyways so i have this extra one now

 

I prolly won't be able to go, but I'm glad u thought of me @cwhit

 

Went to the warm up show / tour kickoff last night at a crazy small venue and had a blast. It was their first Texas show since they did SXSW / toured Celebration Rock so people went nuts. The new songs sound really good live and I was impressed by how well they pull of the whole two piece band thing. I'm not sure how well it'd work in a bigger venue / what size rooms these guys are playing, but if it's anything like last night i definitely recommend it.

Here's the set for anybody that is curious, they played for about an hour but it was a late show after the Angel Olsen show ended so it may be shorter than the actual tour setlist. I don't think there was an encore but we left right after the last song because it was really packed and really late. (spoiler tag just in case)

Great, great setlist. I'd love to see that.

 

Fuck that setlist rules. I want to see this band so bad

 

Upset about that one song in particular from the new album not being on there, but yeah that's a fantastic setlist.

 

Yeah, just add "True Love..." and that's perfect.

 

Wish it had Evils Sway too

 

Seeing these guys next week almost exactly five years after I saw them last. Pretty pumped. I like most of the new record a lot but I think I'll love it live.

 

Truuuuuue. It needs true love and evils sway

 

yooooo wet hair nice, glad they didn't drop that

 

Very excited for that setlist, although True Love would have been great to see in there

 

See ya'll at the Philly show. I'll be the mid 20s white dude. Don't say hi.

 

fuck hopefully i don't get myself mixed up with you
