Franz Ferdinand
Brooklyn Steel
April 16
Best band of the 21st century? I say Franz Ferdinand are. I keep forgetting this fact, and then every 2-3 years they come back into my life and BOOOM – I remember how thick I am, and how much they fucking rule!
Gone is guitarist Nick McCarthy, but besides his good kicks and looks, the Archdukes didn’t miss a beat on their latest franztastic album – Always Ascending – or supporting it live at Brooklyn Steel, a venue new to me, but one I’d be happy to return to. The only tiny misstep is that they didn’t play my new album fav ‘Lois Lane‘, which was featured at the show the night before. Can’t win them all, but Franz Ferdinand wins me each and every time!
Setlist – Always Ascending / The Dark of the Matinee / Do You Want To / Paper Cages / Glimpse of Love / Finally /
Michael / Lazy Boy / Stand on the Horizon / Walk Away / The Academy Award / Darts of Pleasure / Take Me Out / Ulysses
Encore - Feel the Love Go / The Fallen / Huck and Jim / This Fire
