He doesn’t just sing the lyrics – in fact, if you were there to hear his dulcet tones, you’ve come for the wrong reason. More so, he lives and breathes the lyrics. He performs them, emotes them. In fact, just watching him perform and gesticulate seems to give you further insight into the meaning of each song." You've summed up exactly what I've been preaching to the non-converted for years. And you're right in saying what sets them apart from the others is their ability to create new live versions of their songs over and over again. Like true musicians. This is a fantastic review - thank you for putting my thoughts into words! “A lot of it can be attributed to front man, Adam Duritz, and his delivery.

He takes a lot of flack for performing with emotion, but that's exactly what true true CC fans love about him. I find the Crows to be one of the tightest, most interesting live bands around. I love that I never know what to expect. And I'm lucky to love near New York City, so I've been able to see them in venues so small that I've been amazed. The set list for this show sounds near perfect - glad that you enjoyed and appreciated it!
