Wolf Parade's Dante DeCaro & Spencer Krug

I took a rare week night out with my sis and her husband to go see Wolf Parade at The Marquee in Tulsa tonight – it was the best show I’ve seen in years.

First we stumbled out of the T-storms & tornadoes into “Lola’s,” a dia de los muertos themed tapas bar where we got some fantastic mojitos.

Me likes a good mojito

Afterwards we got to The Marquee early enough to get a decent spot and catch the opening band – [insert name here - I'm terribly sorry and mean no disrespect but I forgot] The Listening Party – which had a good blend of native beats and rock (not in a boring hippie way); very Animal Collective-esque.

Then came Wolf Parade.  I used to listen to them a lot then I kinda forgot about them – I’m sooo glad I was reminded!

Give me your eyes
I need sunshine
Give me your eyes
I need sunshine
Your blood
Your bones
Your voice
and your ghost…
