    So I'm not actually from New York. I don't even live in the east coast. But I was in NYC with my school, and the dates we stayed coincided with the day Air and AM would be playing at Terminal 5: March 19th 2010.

    I went with my English teacher (seriously) and a buddy and we had a blast.

    Terminal 5 is fucking awesome

    I didn't know what to expect from AM but I thought they were great

    Alpha Beta Gaga is seriously badass live

    So was everything else (with perhaps the possible exception of Cherry Blossom Girl, which I loved way more on the album)

    Felt sad at the lack of the sitar in J'ai Dormi Sous L'eau and the end snippet of dialogue from How Does It Make You Feel? but for two guys and a drummer JB and Nicolas did a phenomenal job.

    Also Love was fucking AMAZING live (it's the bass), and so was Tropical Disease. I now love Love 2 waaaaay more than I already did before.

    (It was great too because I went back to my hotel room and was able to catch them on Jimmy Kimmel shortly afterwards!)

    Fri 19 Mar – Air, AM

    Didn't start well though, I found the first band (AM ??) very boring.
    But Air, are what I was expecting from a band I've known for 10 years, very good playlist, and 3 songs for the encore, merci les mecs.

    I don't know if it's just me, but most of the venues I've been in New York have a very bad sound quality, mostly too loud, I really have to remember bringing ear plugs next time, you loose 80% of the quality of the artist's work by messing with that.
