To end the year 2010 on a good note, and to help bring in 2011 on an even better one, some friends and I went to the Boulder Theatre to check out an all-electronic cast of Pictureplane, Crystal Castles, and Robotic Pirate Monkey. To be honest, we were not sure what to expect since none of us are huge Crystal Castles fans, but we ended up being blown away with an amazing and energy packed live set that none of us saw coming. The sound was great, the lights were on point, and the entire crowd was feeding off the energy being put out. You could tell that Crystal Castles was putting everything they had into putting on an awesome new years show for all the fans. Here is a video I took, sorry about the poor quality, I wasn't too sober (New Years Eve, remember?)
After Crystal Castles killed it, Robotic Pirate Monkey came on to keep the party going strong. These guys always bring the heat with their unique sound and energy. Last night they brought out some new tricks, rocking out on iPads equipped with TouchOSC software, and even going crazy on the Monome at the same time! The Trio of Matt Berryhill, Andrew Hathaway, and Matt Flesher never disappoint and definitely kept their reputation of being able to rock out all night intact.
Overall it was an awesome night, Happy New Year homies, lets set the bar high for 2011!
