To be honest, I didn't even know who the opening band was before I arrived at the Kings of Leon show last night. But The Features completely blew me away. I knew it was going to be a sweaty, chanting, clapping, dancing kind of show, but by the time The Features finished their set I was already exhausted from dancing to songs I'd never heard before. As a usually jaded, overly intellectual music listener, there are few bands which move me to utterly abandon all regard for my pride. I knew Kings of Leon did it, but dear god, I didn't expect the opening band to accomplish such a feat.

Anyway I bought their debut, which is good, but their live show was a colossal, mind bashing mess of sweet sweaty sound.

Daigle is all we need to make the night complete

I also had No Idea who you were. But tomorrow I am getting Exibit A. The show was awsome. I had my doubts before you stepped on to stage, but when the music started my feet would not stop moving.

You Guys Rock'd!! I can't wait to see you again WHEN you come back.
