notes: Incredible show. Second time seeing them within the past 4 months. Completely different set and show than the first, so it was good to see a whole new batch of songs. Only one song from ( ). "Staralfur" makes a very rare setlist appearance, making the show more special. Unlike the first time I saw them, they had a brass section of about 10 people in the background that appeared on several songs, namely bringing "Olsen Olsen" to its signature ending crescendo. Sigur Ros is one of those bands that makes you believe in something. Whether it's the hope of music still living, or a higher being. But experiencing them live will make you realize there's more to it than "just music."

Dude, you have a woman write those last couple of sentences for you?
Is "Olsen Olsen" about the Olsen twins? That would be awesome.
Also, I'm impressed that you can recognize their songs by name. Then again, you've probably listened to them a lot more than I have.
review up on my blog too!
