Live at Starlight: Vampire Weekend is the Facebook of indie rock

If you reside primarily in the digital world and read too much music criticism, you could be forgiven for thinking there are passionate protests outside Vampire Weekend shows — a mob of angry professorial types clutching picket signs decrying the band’s “classism” or “cultural tourism.” 

Here’s what I saw Saturday night at Starlight Theatre: A large crowd of people singing and dancing and not giving a single flying fuck about what Vampire Weekend “means.” In other words: A fun show.
