The boys really shined last night. A tighter and more cohesive set than the already mindblowing show in July opening for Bloc Party + Secret Machines. This time we got 45 minutes (compared to 30 at McCarren) and even got accompanying videos, albeit a little creepy, with nearly each song.
'Chinaberry Tree' and 'Special' were brilliant and it was clear to see that Mew was extremely thankful to be playing to a (mostly) respectful crowd in NYC. I think Webster Hall and venues with similar capacities are the perfect space for a band like Mew. You can really appreciate them and their large sound in a room that holds about a thousand or so people.
Pick up And The Glass Handed Kites if you don't already own it. It's truly amazing.
