Walking on stage exactly at 9pm, TCS’ singer Francis Reader nervously asked, “You guys ready?” (to the audience), and the audience overwhelmingly responded “YES!” Thus started their 80-min set with ‘Best Days on Earth’.īefore we get started, I'd like to point out that I've been going to the Cedar Cultural Center for shows for a long time, well, at least when it was re-opened for music. Some even sacrificing going out of town for the long Memorial Day Weekend, just to be there for TCS.
Everyone at the show wanted to be there, all respectful and quiet and ready to enjoy the show. Of course, the fans are in the 30-40 age range, many of them have seen TCS numerous times. Originally the band wanted to book the Cedar Cultural Center (where they previously played in 2011), but the nonprofit venue was booked that night. The band started their Wild Pendulum tour in Boston, then NYC Pop Fest, and eventually to St Paul’s Amsterdam Bar and Hall on Saturday night. TCS’ current tour is for their album Wild Pendulum, which came out as a result of a successful PledgeMusic campaign. I’m told that John Douglas, who was diagnose with autoimmune disease in 2013, has been undergoing treatments and surgeries, so that may complicate matters when it comes to the harsh touring life.Īnyway, when they do make it to our corner of the world, it is always a great celebration and fun get-together with the bands and their fans. so it is not often that the Scottish band (currently with singer/acoustic Francis Reader, rhythm guitarist John Douglas, guitarist Paul Livingston, keys Stevie Mulhearn, bassist Frank DiVanna, and drummer Stephen Douglas) make their way to the States.
