Bloc Party are just awesome

Last night's show at the Bowery was great. Bloc Party really has it all - the songs, the musicianship, the swagger, and the love for the crowd. They appreciate New York and New York appreciates Bloc Party. They opened with "Like Eating Glass" and rolled through "Banquet," "This Modern Love," and "Helicopter" among others. My personal faves were "Price of Gasoline" and "The Marshalls are Dead."

Kele announced that they'll be back in June and will play Webster Hall - to which the crowd responded with boos. "What, you don't like Webster Hall?" "Where should we play then?" "CBGB's?" "Alright, label guys take note of that."

Bloc Party really deserve the hype they get, and they put on a great live show.
