Apocalyptica @ Capital City Music Hall
Last night was a sold out show of Apocalyptica in Ottawa, at the Capital City Music Hall. CCMH has moved, and the new venue is… different. That said, being in the front-row of a standing-room-only packed house is amazing, regardless of the venue.
The set was a phenomenal mix of their traditional covers as well as their new material; the crowd the normal Canadian boisterous bunch; and the experience was truly priceless. Having flirted with the band briefly in 2001, not really enjoying their music much, I’m happy to see they’ve “grown up”: A little compromise here and there has led to a full-time drummer and touring vocalist, which completely changes their color and the duration I can listen to three-to-four cellos without wanting to behead myself.
Yeah, cellos. Go listen. 
I would, but I’m still deaf from last night.
