After opening for Augustana earlier in the year, Vega4 returned to town to open the show at the Mercury Lounge last Tuesday night. I was a bit surprised to see the band go on so early as they drew a good-sized crowd when opening at Webster Hall. It was nice to see that a number of people (60+) turned out at 8PM to see the band play. I really think it is a matter of time before Vega4 is playing bigger rooms here in town.
As the band was the first to play this night, they only had time for a five song set. The set list was:
- Tearing Me Apart
- Traffic Jam
- Bullets
- You and Me
- Life is Beautiful
The highlight of the set was You and Me, which singer Johnny McDaid introduced from the front of the stage. It was a great show but it would have been nice if the band was able to have played a longer set.
Check out my pictures from the band's show at Webster Hall this past February here.
