![]() I am not saying that Walk The Moon’s song “Me and All My Friends” brought us all together but maybe…? The night continued to get better after each song including another new song Boyfriend followed by Iscariot, and I Can Lift a Car which had the crowd raising their hands up and down as if to lift a car. Shortly after this my friend next to me noticed we were standing right behind some of her friends from school. It was something special leaving me with shivers at the sound. It turned into a sing along as lead singer Nicholas Petricca had everyone learn the lyrics and have them repeat “Come on over now” after every time he sung “Me and All My Friends”. Playing a range of current and new songs Walk The Moon turned back a few pages with a couple from their early days of self recorded albums including ‘Me and All My Friends’. The chorus then exploded into a splash of pop-dance brilliance. If this song was a taste of what to expect from Walk The Moon’s second album then I serious don’t think I can wait until spring 2013 for it. When the song really got started and jumped into the verse it has an obvious electronic 80’s vibe with a bombastic beat. Started off soft with only keyboards and a simple backup harmony. He knew all the words up until Walk The Moon played their first new song, “Bring Me Back”. Needless to say, this fan was lively all night. One guy near me was yelling over the music to his friend’s “This is my favorite band – I have seen these guys live four times”. ![]() These dance-wave-rockers sure made waves with songs like Tightrope, Shiver Shiver, Quesadilla, and Fixin’. It was easy to see the joy in the faces of the fans as they watched the each member dance around stage preforming their 80’s and early 90’s inspired music. But no problem for Walk The Moon as they got the crowd ready during the first song as they broke out in the song “Next In Line”. While the role of the opening bands was to warm up the crowd, no band could have warmed up the crowd to the level need before the Walk The Moon concert. The moment the entire band came on stage the crowd was ready to participate. Walk The Moon have described their live performance as ‘not a spectator sport’. It’s been a few days since the Walk The Moon concert in Seattle and I am still feeding off the energy from what was one of the most incredible nights at the Showbox Sodo I have experienced.
