Ambulance Ltd At The Middle East In Boston
Last night’s show was Ambulance Ltd @ The Middle East In Boston, Massachusetts. Show started off with a few opening acts I haven’t heard of. One, Bear Hands was pretty good. They had a guitarist that played some mean slide guitar, which sounded great. Too bad they weren’t selling CDs at the show, I’d have bought one.
Ambulance Ltd came on at about 10:30 and played until 12:00. Their set consisted of about half new songs that are unreleased and songs off of their last couple albums. The new stuff was good, but never hearing it before, hard to really get into. Their sound on the new songs was a little different, but this isn’t a bad thing. Keeps stuff interesting. Of course they rocked out to some of their best songs like Anecdote and Sugar Pill. All in all, it was an excellent show. Not a huge crowd, similar to the VAST show I went to in February, which I think is great for small venues such as the Middle East and Indy bands like Ambulance Ltd. I’ll definitely see them the next time they come to town!
