One Republic at the Madrid: Concert Review

One Republic, with the Daylights and Eric Hutchinson

Saturday, January, 19

The Madrid Theatre

You know you’re in for a complete spectacle when you get to a concert and the roadies are dressed better than you are, the drummers play wearing designer wrist watches and the balcony is packed with trophy-wife tourists uttering condescending phrases like, “I can’t believe all those people down there want to stand on the floor.”

Saturday’s One Republic gig at the Madrid was just that kind of show, the kind where the music on stage only sort of makes up for the unholy combined BAC of 800 Mix 93.3 listeners.
