| Walk the Moon and Company of Thieves Live
Caught Company of Thieves and Walk the Moon live this past Saturday at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut. | | 1 |  | Company Of Thieves
Ordinary Riches
Was kind of psyched the find that Company of Thieves was the opening band for this show. I loved "Ordinary Riches", although the second album was just so-so. I didn't even know they had re-formed after their breakup a few years ago. | | 2 |  | Company Of Thieves
Running From A Gamble
The band was very energetic, although I thought the crowd was a little low energy early on. Genevieve Schatz was way more bubbly and upbeat than I expected -- more Glinda the Good Witch than Jeaneane Garofolo. | | 3 |  | Walk the Moon
Walk the Moon
Walk the Moon was excellent, and the crowd was really into them. With three albums out, they definitely have enough material to put together a solid playlist to headline a show. | | 4 |  | Walk the Moon
Talking is Hard
They said they had flown from a show in Albany on Thursday night to L.A. on Friday to play the iHeartRadio ALTer EGO show with Mumford & Sons, Beck, Cage the Elephant, Spoon, The National and Dashboard Confessional, then back to the East to Connecticut for this show on Saturday. But they were still psyched and very high-energy, probably because according to them, it was the first time they'd ever headlined an arena show of this size. | | 5 |  | Walk the Moon
What If Nothing
I was a little surprised that the song that got the biggest response of the night wasn't "Anna Sun", or the first single from the new album, "One Foot", but "Shut Up and Dance" from their second album. | |

01.24.18 | All told, it was an excellent first live show of 2018. Setlist is at https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/walk-the-moon/2018/mohegan-sun-arena-uncasville-ct-3e159c3.html . | Sinternet
01.24.18 | how were you surprised that their huge top 40 single got the biggest response? | TwigTW
01.24.18 | Sounds like a fun show Diva. I just picked up David Byrne tickets for my first 2018 show. It sold out in 4 hours. I had no idea he was still that popular. | Divaman
01.24.18 | To tell you the truth, Sinternet, I didn't actually realize how big a single "Shut Up and Dance" was until after the concert when I looked up their charts on Wikipedia. (I don't really listen to the Top 40). I just remember both the "Anna Sun" song and the video getting a lot of airplay when the first album came out, and when I looked up what they were playing on this tour on Setlist.FM and saw that "Anna Sun" was the encore, it just reinforced my assumption that most people considered that their top song. | Divaman
01.24.18 | Ooo, I wonder if my wife knows that David Byrne is coming around? She's pretty into him. | Relinquished
01.24.18 | holy shit company of theives | Kompys2000
01.24.18 | Nice, I got my sister Walk the Moon tix for Christmas, good to know the opener is solid. | Divaman
01.24.18 | Yeah, they closed the encore with "Headphones".
Your sister will have a good time, Kompys. Like I said, it seemed like the crowd was about 2/3 female, and they were dancing their butts off. |
