This show had it all. Band and crowd climbing the walls (literally). Stage invasions. Champagne poured on the writhing mass of onlookers. A crowd-surfing lead singer that nearly landed on the bar (much to the bar staff’s chagrin). Yeah. Blew the doors off the place. See more after the jump. Pick up their album on iTunes or in person at a show – it’s good.
