EVENTS / HANDSOME FURS (CANADA, SUBPOP) LIVE
Vasco's Thursday is proud to present Handsome Furs, one of the hottest indie bands to come out of North America for ONE NIGHT ONLY as part of their Asia-Australia Tour. Handsome Furs have made an impression in their shows and at festivals around the world and Saigon is lucky to have a band so "on time" play live.
Vasco's is really stepping up for this show with a higher stage and additional sound and one of the best sound engineers in the country.
This will be a night to remember and WE RECOMMEND YOU ARRIVE EARLY. To ensure better service at this special event, Vasco's is saving standing tables in the show room for those buying bottles. Of course there will be plenty of open seating in the lounges outside of the main bar for you to sit and talk to your friends.
THIS IS A FREE SHOW. Thanks to the generous support of our friends at Bacardi.
Now for more about Handsome Furs:
The Crime Syndicate, a respected concert review blog in the states wrote of a recent Show, "the Handsome Furs began setting up and it became immediately apparent that like baseball there is a stratum in music – some people are born to play and others are doing it because they just really want to. Dan Boekner was born to f*#!ing rock." "...in many ways true talent is a natural phenomenon, is born. While the other bands were sincere, probably practiced more than the Handsome Furs and had some good songs, it was like a different kind of human had landed when the Handsome Furs started in on their set."
