Update: Ladytron and The Faint

Friday was the first night of the Ladytron/The Faint co-headlining tour at Webster Hall.

I’ve seen Ladytron three years before and I chalked up my lukewarm reception of the show as tiredness after having been to three consecutive shows the two previous days. After this second time, I cannot use it as an excuse. Though the music is great, the live show is boring and underwhelming.

Unlike The Faint, who I’ve never seen live before, but were brilliant and energetic and I couldn’t help dancing. Now that’s a show.

Next up: ether the one-off Dead Weather (new Jack White band) show or the extravaganza of Of Montreal with the wonderful Janelle Monae opening.
