Anberlin are one of my favourite bands and have been since their first album.
The gig did not disappoint. At all. Stephen Christian's voice is more powerful and amazing live than I could have ever hoped for, and the band were fantastic in recreating the powerful guitar solos and unique drum beats that have made them so popular.
We all enjoyed the gig and sang along to all the words, there were one or two songs I had hoped they would play live but unfortunately didn't (Soft Skeletons, A Day Late to name two), but was impressed with the songs they did play, including The Art of War, Paperthin Hymn and of course, The Feel Good Drag.
Cannot wait until their next visit to the UK!

Favourite moment: Definitely when the audience took over on the Unwinding Cable Car! @
Opening act(s): Only saw Hawthorne Heights, who were actually very entertaining so will be listening to them more on Spotify! @
