I haven't had that much pure fun in a long time. I highly recommend it if you ever get the chance.

I saw them Friday in L.A at the Wiltern Theater. Damn near sold our tickets for $200 apiece before the show and I'm sooooo glad we didn't! The video below was recorded the night before at the Regency Ballroom in S.F. Same stage, same kind of venue. This is from about halfway through the show, the backup band going through their paces. Then the kids come back (I guess from their nap...lol). Right around 4:28 the lead singer starts calling for the mosh pit. Adorable.



Like I said, if you ever get the chance, please do yourself a favor and see this show.

You'll definitely leave with a smile on your face!

Looks like it's a fun show. The Wiltern is a great venue. The last time I was there was to see Modest Mouse, maybe ten years ago.
