These dudes:

They have an 80s sound, kinda, like 80s rock mixed with goth.
Singer is excellent, lots of passion in his vocals.
Keyboardist is irreplaceable -- the keys and vocals make the band.

They're going to be at the Hammerstein in NYC.
I'll definitely post about the show -- I'll be so excited I'll have to spill my guts

Okay -- here's my take on the show.
When HIM hit the stage, I almost cried.
I waited since February to see this band (that is when I discovered them).
They were fantastic, the lights were fantastic.
Some disappointments though:
-- They concentrated on two albums, the new one "Dark Light" and "Razorblade Romance" which is older -- therefore omitting a lot of songs from my favorite album "Deep Shadows and Brilliant Highlights."
-- They played one song after another without much talk in-between. I would have liked to hear some joking around, as Ville is a pretty funny guy.
-- Only played 1.5 hours.
So I left feeling a bit disappointed.
