Don’t let the beginning of this review fool you!  It ends wonderfully.

Concert Review: Counting Crows at Bayfront Park Amphitheater

“After a while, I stopped trying to keep up with what was being played by whom and when and just enjoyed myself. But I will tell you that Augustana more then held their own when they were given their chance to stage by themselves. The lads are a neo-cool throwback to the days of song and style, and in fact they’re a little at odds with the Haight-like hippiness of both Spearhead and the Crows. That, naturally, makes them even cooler in my book. If I recall correctly the band played “Sweet and Low” and “Hey Now” before Durwitz returned to accompany them through “Stars and Boulevards.” It was my personal highlight of the night. And who knows? I may have found a favorite in the line-up after all. “

They are pretty cool in our book too! =)
