Oh man, when things line up I try to see a band a couple of times so I had eyed both Milwaukee and Chicago but couldn't make it swing because of work. Like you say, a great band playing amazing music, I can't wait till I get to see them again...
Thanks for this. I missed this show, as I already had Foo Fighters tickets with my family by the time this date was announced. Diiv is my favorite band of the last 10 years, so I caught the tour in Milwaukee the night before. Had to drive back to MPLS in the middle of the night, but it was worth it. It was my first time seeing them because the last time they played MN was Oct 2015, and I became a fan in Jan 2016 just before Is The Is Are was released.
Kudos to you for: 1) Catching Foos with the family; 2) driving out to Milwaukee to catch Diiv given your existing plans (that's serious commitment!). My first time seeing them as well and I was just blown away. For me, getting to Mpls involved a 7 hour drive from Canada and it was soooo worth it. Let's hope they come back a little bit sooner this time around!
@EdTaboada that's some serious commitment for you also. Your drive was 2 hours longer! Glad you enjoyed the show. I was utterly mesmerized the entire time.
I'm and old man and I've seen a lot of shows in my life. My first time seeing Diiv and definitely one of my favorite shows as well...This band is so dialed in
went to the show in philly! they blew me away. watching them live was even better than the recording, just being in the same room and hearing that is something i wanna experience again. crazy show, best concert i think i’ve been to
Totally agree. Everything about the show was just excellent, sound, lights, vibe. I've seen a lot of concerts in my time and this one was one of the very best. As a fan of shoegaze, the guitars were such a highlight for me. I've been a fan of the band since the beginning but this was my first opportunity seeing them live. And now I know just how much I've been missing...
@@EdTaboada haha i know right? I was actually invited to go by my friend who knew nothing about diiv because i got him into horse jumper of love so we went to see them. I saw Diiv was headlining the show and i put him on diiv as well. I was honestly a little out of touch, i loved oshin as a highschooler and is the is are but i honestly lost track after that, although recently i had been looking for their stuff in record stores. I feel like i missed out on so much, everything about the performance was amazing. I could barely hear the vocals, but the stage presence and the groove/jam they seem to get into in every song is such a life-changing experience. I'm a fan of shoegaze, i never really realized they fell into that category. They've always been a surf band to me, i think they have something very special. Full body 2 opened for them, and while they were good and I enjoyed the music, to me it was very generic in comparison -- ALTHOUGH still good.
@@alex.2929 You know, I'm gonna use the frog in boiling water metaphor for Diiv in that they've slowly become more and more shoegaze in each record. But seeing them live, holy shit. Yeah, totally agree about Full Body 2. For me, they were pretty good but I love melody and they didn't quite hit the mark for me on that score. I'll tell you what tho', Horse Jumper to me were a huge surprise in that I like them on record but the live show took it to another level. I can't wait to hear the new album because the one review I read said something about maybe the band sounding more powerful, which is what I saw at the Diiv show. I had given up my spot to this girl who had made a beautiful Horse Jumper shirt and once they started playing, I totally regretted not holding on to it in order to record the show! I hope they tour soon...
@@EdTaboada yep! i agree. diiv has lost a bit of the surf and definitely i think fall closer into dreamcore for me, but i think they are leaning into the shoegaze label themselves. I’m surprised you thought that about horse jumper! i’m glad to hear. I personally thought they hit about the same live as the album but it was just really cool to see them play some of the songs from their self titled live. they played orangepeeler which is my favorite and i wasn’t expecting that. I have a few songs recorded but i feel so bad whipping out my phone so i just hold it up to my chest and try to experience it through my eyes. Have a few diiv songs recorded too. had to record doused.
You're most welcome. I've started recording and posting anything I go to, but this show was really special on so many levels. I'm happy we get to relive it...
@@jasonroberts2249 The whole show was not only a feast for the eyes and ears but so freaking funny, with the little film snippets and the fake setlist...then the website for the album...funny dudes
thanks for recording and sharing this. I saw them last night in Chicago and it was so so good. what a great band playing amazing music.

I saw them in Milwaukee it was great and I got their setlist
I saw them in Milwaukee, also, and Andrew gave me his setlist. What a show!
I also saw them in Atlanta. So cool! They are like the ideal sexy rock n roll star to me 😊
Yes!! This show was awesome. Thanks for posting!

That "Thank you very much" voice they play between songs cracks me up

@@EdTaboada I also didn't notice it when I saw them in Houston but watching the vids now I'm like LOL
