The Lady of the Lambs, a Shepherdess of Sheep

Her flocks are thoughts. She keeps them white...
She holds her little thoughts in sight,
Though gay they run and leap.
She is so circumspect and right;
She has her soul to keep.
-- Alice Meynell

Crystal Castles

Roseland Theatre, Sunday, 3. 6. 2011




















A dude walks on stage and gets everyone to quiet down, he then announces that Alice has broken her ankle and the doctor has advised her to not continue the tour...to which Alice replied: "FUCK THAT!"..  ... and so the show started. Honestly it was one of the best concerts I have seen in a long time, the creativity of it all was refreshing. Not once was Alice spotlighted on stage, instead the audience captured her through the flashing lights, dancing and moving like a mad woman with a casted broken ankle and a crutch! She would fall into the crowd and sing at them on top of someone's shoulders. Alice Glass is by far one of the most captivating performers I have ever seen. ah if only to relive it again, right now.

---> A video I took on my phone from the balcony, it does not do the sound or Alice justice, but it is nostalgic:
