Hold Steady @ The Belly Up

So I had heard about Hold Steady on NPR as the best Bar Band in America. Hmmm. Are they worth the princely sum of $16?


Oh yeah. Prior to HS taking the stage, I talked to several people. Some recommended seeing them at a place called First Avenue in Minnesota (their hometown) but I would rather see them in NYC.



Great show. The band had great energy in spite of the Belly Up bad sound. Mental note: fight the crowd and move to the stage front.

Yes, worth the $16 and more.
