Short Concert Review - Switchfoot
I had the privelege of seeing my first ever Switchfoot concert this week at Chicago's House of Blues. Even on a Tuesday night, it was a sold-out crowd, and you could sense an excitement in the air. It was the first time I received a press pass specifically with UTR, so I was feeling like Daddy Warbucks!
After the so-so opening act Paper Tigers (didn't impress me all that much), Switchfoot took the stage and ripped into their opening track from Hello Hurricane, "Needle and Haystack Life."
What didn't surprise me at all was the musical excellence, the energetic stage presence of Jon Foreman, and the loyal fan participation. One thing that did surprise me was even with a backlog of incredible songs in their past, Switchfoot played the majority of songs off of Hello Hurricane, and it was fab-u-lous! Of course they did play some of their radio singles from the past like "Meant to Live," "Stars," "Gone," and they closed with their anthem "Dare You To Move".
They did not disappoint; not for a second.
Since a picture is worth a 1000 words -- and to make good use of my media credentials -- take a look at our exclusive Switchfoot Concert Photo Gallery.
