Attended/participated at the recent Calexico concert in Wellington. I'd never seen the band live, despite them having played NZ previously.
On the encouragement of Welly friends we made up a party of 6 from the Mainland for the show. It was our second time to the Opera House (first was to see Bill Frisell @ Jazz Festival), It's such a nice intimate venue, great acoustics for small and larger bands.
Calexico are truely splendid live...
Did any other forum members see them? (Radio 13 did a review of the AKL concert). Impressions?
The icing on the cake for me: they played one of my fav tracks 'Fortune Teller'
"...I'm on my way to finer things..." thats for sure
