Went to see The Swell Season (Oscar award winners Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová from the movie Once) with Andrew, Reachel, Natalie, Patrick, and Becky last night at the Orpheum Theater in downtown Phoenix.
Calexico opened and The Frames served as support. It was a great show at a great venue...with delightful company to top it all off. We dined in style at Cibo beforehand.
If you haven't already seen it, rent Once. It's a good flick. One f-bomb that ClearPlay took care of.
Here is a link to a very similar live show recorded last year.

How awesome, every last bit of it!
I almost bought tickets to see them here, but decided to see Jose Gonzalez instead. I have been listening to a lot of Calexico, and Swell Season's Slowing Falling is about the greatest song ever. I'm a little envious of your fun evening!
Did you realize that she's 20, and he's in his mid-to-late 30s, and they're dating? Yikes.
Er, that's Falling Slowly.
Glad you had a fun time.
Great review! Just caught The Swell Season last night in Portland and they were fantastic. Different opener though. Posted a review at http://isorski.blogspot.com/ - check it out.
Always a great time with you and Becky!
