Manchester Orchestra at Orpheum (pictures)
December 19th, 2008 by Stephen Hammill in Local Music, Photo review, ReviewsLast night, Manchester Orchestra sold out the Orpheum (this reporter only made it in thanks to the door work of CL Marketing + Promotions Director Joran Oppelt). Lead singer Andy Hull (looking every bit Grandaddy frontman Jason Lytle’s little brother) impressed with his vocal chops, mixing in a good deal of Ben Gibbard-influence to go with the band’s loud/quiet sing-a-long numbers, some which have been featured in the Gossip Girl TV show.
Kevin Devine, Dead Confederate and All Get Out opened. Some grainy pictures of MO below:

Definitely a good show. Dead Confederate were still my faves, despite everyone telling me I HAD to stick around. I’ve said it before … You know a band is good if you end up buying their t-shirt!
