When I saw Andrew McMahon was playing a show in Indy on his current tour, I knew we had to go! He's been my favorite artist since junior high. He is going to be at Hangout Festival in May but I didn't want to risk not being able to see him then. His new album, Zombies On Broadway, is so good. I just want to sing and dance when I listen to it. It puts me in such a good mood. We spent the day in Indy with my family. After dinner we made our way over to the Egyptian Room at the Old National Centre. We missed the first opener and caught about half of the second opener. I was able to run into an old friend that I hadn't seen in about 5 years just before Andrew's set. His set was one of the most fun I've seen. I was signing and dancing and having an all around great time. I am normally not one to sing and dance quite so much at shows but I just can't help it with Andrew!
As seen in the pictures above, Andrew has a giant inflatable duck that he gets in and rides around the crowd. He went over me twice. I much prefer the inflatable objects to just people crowd surfing! He also sent his giant rainbow parachute out in the crowd and it was so fun to dance to Synesthesia under it!
