You only love me when im leaving.

So, a few years ago I went to go see Regina Spektor in concert and she had two opening acts.
The first act sucked. I don't even remember his name to be honest..
So when the second opening act came up, everyone in the audience was kind of on edge because of the first shitty opener. Well, the second act took the stage and they were setting up all of these crazy instruments and everyone in the audience was very confused until they began to play.

(The video is just random. It was the best video I could find to show you the song haha)

I swear to you. I fell in love right then and there.
This bands name was DeVotchKa and they are godly.
I dunno if any of you saw the movie Little Miss Sunshine, but (aside from being an amazing movie) DeVotchKa did the entire soundtrack to that movie.

They also had one of their songs featured on a commercial for that game Gears Of War.
The lead singer took out a giant bottle of wine at the begining of the set, and by the end of the set he had drank the entire bottle. He chugged the wine in-between songs haha.

The tuba player (yes, they have a tuba player) had christmas lights going around the inside of her tuba so when she hit her first note, the tuba lit up like a christmas tree.
They would switch up instruments during songs. They are all very talented and it amazes me haha

(Ignore the video, I just put it up for the song haha.)

That song is one of my favorites because when they played this song the entire audience was kicking and dancing like crazy people. It was soo much fun haha

Alright, I guess i'll leave you with the youtube video of the moment
