Afghan Whigs

Mercury Rev

I just got back from seeing the Afghan Whigs with Mercury Rev.  I knew that it would be an amazing show but it actually exceeded expectations for me.  Listening to Mercury Rev has always been like one of those well kept secret bands that no one talked about in any of my circles of friends.  Deserter's Songs was one of the best albums of the nineties.  Then, the Afghan Whigs just have so many great songs to pluck from for any show.   I heard plenty of my favorites, like "66," "Gentleman," and "Going To Town," amongst newer stuff from an upcoming album.  

Some drinks based on Afghan Whigs songs were served too, though I didn't have any.

 The past few weeks have been absolutely devastating for me because I received a health update which has really shaken me.  I am not sure what is next.
