My night with Dragons

Well, I saw Imagine Dragons at the Opera House on Monday night, and they put on an amazing show. I didn't take any photos, so I borrowed this one from a local radio station, just so you could see.

If you haven't heard their music before, Imagine Dragons are an alternative rock band, that really make use of drums of all types, and synthesizer sounds. All of their songs have a big sound to them, which made their live performance very, very powerful. The crowd and the band were all on the same wavelength, all in all it was a perfect concert experience. After the show, I just felt so pumped full of energy and I swear, this band reminded me why I love music.

After the show, a coworker of mine suggested we go backstage to congratulate them on the show. So once we checked with security, we went down to the green room. Every member of Imagine Dragons was so humbled and awed, surprised that on their first visit to Toronto, everyone  was singing along and actually knew the words. They were such nice guys, and they kept calling me sweetie, hehe.  We hugged even though they were totally drenched in sweat. I told them that their show really pumped me up, and they suggested that we go out and start a fight in the street.

I don't have a video from the concert, but here is their TV debut live on Jay Leno. To give you a taste.
