it's that time again.

fall is here again and that is about the time when a lot of concerts start popping up. i haven't gone to a show in awhile and i was getting in the mood! i surprised shane with tickets to see jenny lewis with the watson twins at the town hall on october 13th! i knew that he really liked the music but i was not that familiar.

we had some time to kill before the show and needed a quick bite to eat. since we were in times square, we grabbed a couple street dogs. yum! and washed them down with some tab energy. (it had been a pretty long week and we needed to be revived for the concert!)


then we pretended to be tourists visiting NY for the first time, staring up at the lights of times square and asking (obvious new yorkers) annoying tourists questions. yeah, we're crazy!

the concert was really nice! i enjoyed it more than i expected! jenny's boyfriend, jonathan rice opened for her. we didn't know who he was at first and we were convinced he was connor oberst, aka bright eyes. he sang and spoke exactly like him! jonathan sang mellow, acoustic, folk songs.

jenny lewis was amazing! she has such a strong and powerful voice that just resonated in the theatre! and she is tiny! where does that voice come from?! i really enjoyed her music - some of my favorite songs being The Big Guns and Rising Up with Fists!! (jessica, here is it, you new music suggestions from molly - jenny lewis!! check it out!) jenny also sings with the quartet rilo kiley. the watson twins are 2 southern girls with beautifully melodic voices that perfectly back jenny up. they have a new album out as well. i definitely bet it is worth checking out!

i was not able to get many photos from the concert. security there was on high alert and was continuously walking the isles and stopping people from taking pics with cameras and phones.
this is the only one i got of the jenny lewis. here she is singing with jonathan, the watson twins to the left. i was lovin' her show girl style flashy dress with cowboy boots!
