Title: So I went to a The Dears show last night.

It was in a beautiful old church, downtown Montreal.

They had a kid's choir open up, they were pretty good. Then The Dears came on and put on an incredible show. The acoustics for being in a church were surprisingly amazing.

The singer, Murray started off in the crowd, opened with Savior from their new album.

Never heard of these guys, I'm curious.  Good?

That's an awesome venue for a Dears show!

I've seen The Dears a few times over the years. First time was back in February 2004 when they opened for Stars at the Crocodile Cafe in Seattle. They were great, but so incredibly loud, I mean ridiculously ear melting loud. I think the only band I've seen that was louder than they were was Spiritualized when they opened for Radiohead back in 1998. I saw them at Sasquatch 2005, and got them to sign my Lost in the Plot 7".
