Galactic with Maggie Koerner; pics from First Avenue in Minneapolis

[fantailmedia]

So cold here it's just been painful (and my significant other is sadly still unemployed, so no fest for us any year soon), but I had to get out and hear some music. So I sprang for a ticket to see Galactic make the move to First Avenue (after several years of gigs at the smaller Cabooze). So glad I did; fun opening band, the Stepkids, and then Galactic ruled the packed room. Cool to see them at a venue big enough for their lighting rig, for once. Maggie Koerner was a ball of energy (and not someone I'd paid attention to before, foolishly).

As usual, I took some pictures and a few of them are posted;http://www.flickr.com/photos/fantailmedia/12247613536/, http://www.flickr.com/photos/fantail...n/photostream/ and http://www.flickr.com/photos/fantail...n/photostream/ .

Looking forward to picking up a copy of their new record, too.

Great shots. Poor Corey looks like he's freezin'.

Thanks on the shots. Yeah, it WAS brutally cold outside, but plenty warm inside, just from happy concertgoers in the club by the time Galactic hit. Mainroom was relatively packed.
