Mogwai @ Wooly's (5/17/2014)

Opener:

• Don't know, don't care - some electro dude that wasn't very good.  Only caught the last bit.

Setlist:

• Opened with first track off the new record, and then spanned most, if not all, of their albums as far as I could tell.  With instrumental music like theirs it's hard to pin down names of songs and where they're from.

Stage:

• For a relatively small club, they brought more lights that I expected.  But I guess this band has been around for a while.

Observations:

• The most unexpected thing for me was how freaking loud they were.  It didn't help that I was pretty close to the speaker on the right side of the stage.

High/low-lights:

• I liked just about every "song" they played, even the ones I didn't know (or wasn't quite sure if I knew).  The glaring exception to that was the last one, which seemed like a lot of loud noise followed by a lot of quiet followed by a lot of loud noise.

Rating: 4.4/5
