    The Maine 8/8/10 at Showcase Live Foxboro, MA

    Let me just start out by saying Showcase Live is awesome. It’s spacious, and has nice lounges, and is completely air conditioned. 

    But this isn’t about Showcase Live (though I do suggest going there) this is about the Maine. I’ve seen the Maine once before at Lupos opening for Boys Like Girls on the Soundtrack of Your Summer Tour, but back then I hardly knew who they were. On Sunday, after recently becoming interested in them, I attended a show on their An Evening With the Maine Tour. 

    I missed the beginning (woops!) because the tickets said 8pm, and I got there at 8:15 and missed both openers and the beginning of the Maine’s set. However as I walked toward the door I could hear “Girls Do What They Want” and I was impressed by how good they sounded. In my experience it is a rare feat for the band to sound just as good live as on the CD. 

    The boys put on a good show, joking around, and flirting with the crowd. John (the singer) even had a little conversation with a few of the girls near the stage. They played a couple covers I’ve never heard covered before, “Roses” by Outkast, and “Should I Stay or Should I Go” by The Clash.

    They didn’t encore, but they did arrange a signing after the show for anyone willing to stand in a huge line for an autograph and a smile.

    Overall it was a great show, one of the best I’ve been to recently.

    P.S. coming up soon — some words from Warped Tour (7/13), and Taking Back Sunday (6/28) (yes we’re a little behind!) Also we’re about to head off to see The Academy Is… in North Hampton tonight! =)
