Field Music - Cafe Du Nord, San Francisco, CA - March 26, 2010

What a coincidence: I happen to be in the Bay area for work and Field Music just so happens to be playing.

The place was actually kind of crowded, which surprised me.  I had no idea anyone else knew of this band.  Apparently they do on the west coast.

The sound was great, unlike School of Language's show at DC9 a while back.  They played a medley of old and new stuff, and even dipped into David's repertoire.  My favorite?  Glad you asked.  A Gap Has Appeared followed closely by Effortlessly.  No strings, but they did well with those parts on guitar, especially in Measure.

Setlist:

Getting sick of them, yet? I'm not.
