matsuri, and calculator at the yellow room 3.12.11

the yellow room has become my favorite place for shows in the bay area. this was my first time seeing both matsuri and calculator. matsuri had three guitar players which gave them the coolest sound. a lot of the parts were really instrumental. they had two singers. i really liked it. they had really cool group vocals. everyone in the band was enjoying themselves, which made it a lot of fun. i would definitely see them again.

calculator was awesome. the lead singer was crowd surfing the whole set. so were other people. everyone seemed to know the words, and everyone was dancing and singing along for their whole set. people had smiles on the whole time it was great. musically they were great. the group vocals really do it for me. memorial was my favorite song of the set.
