Tegan and Sara - Dallas @ The Palladium Ballroom

This past February I was able to catch a show of one of my all time favorite groups, Tegan and Sara. I can't begin to even describe how much I find myself relating to their music. They have a unique way of expressing what types of thoughts, emotions and doubts we as women feel at this game of love. It is so honest, so raw, yet so endearing. Here are a few shots from their show from my tiny little Nikon. I couldn't get the Canon into the venue so forgive the graininess.






Peep this video compliments of wojo4hitz at YouTube of my favorite song off of T&S's most recent album, Sainthood, The Ocean.





The Ocean

When you wake what is it that you think of most?
When your bed is empty do you really sleep alone?
If I imagine you, body next to another.

All around me new love and it makes me sad.
All around me feel assured that you'll be back,
If I imagine you, body next to another.

Stop crying to the ocean, stop crying over me.
Stop worrying over nothing, stop worrying over me.
So it's been so long since you said,
Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you.

On the drive back here I was worrying over nothing.
On the drive back there tears spilling over something.
When I imagine you, body next to another.

In the door and you're there and you're sorry for the fright.
In the door, can I hear you saying you don't wanna fight?
When I imagine you, body next to another.

Stop crying to the ocean, stop crying over me.
Stop worrying over nothing, stop worrying over me.
So it's been so long since you said,
Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you.
It's been so long since you said,
Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you.

In a flash it's back to you, just brought attention to the mess.
In a flash you're on top begging me to understand.
If I imagine you, body next to another.

You drop in for a minute and I'm sorry that I didn't drop in sooner
just to see you and see what you've been doin'.
If I imagine you, body next to another.

So it's been so long since you said,
Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you.
It's been so long since you said,
Well I know what I want and what I want's right here with you.

*I've updated my earlier post featuring Brand New and added the photos I took at their acoustic show!
