Tegan and Sara

Canada's favorite twins were in town last week to play two shows at The Burton Cummings Theatre and I was forunate to attend both shows! I had never seen Tegan and Sara live before and honestly thought that for some reason that they would not be that great. I thought their voices would come off as whiny or annoying. However I was totally wrong and completely taken back after the first song, by how amazing they sounded. I would have been stoked regardless because I love their music but it's so much better to know that they're actually better live.

I was also surprised by how hilarious they were. Inbetween every couple of songs they would reminisce and tell funny stories and experiences. I was impressed by not only their incredible sound but how many songs they played. They played a 27 song set which is alot of songs.

It was such a great show that I will most likely be talking about until the next time they play Winnipeg! Finger crossed they play Folk Fest this summer!

note: I did not take this video nor is it even from either of the Winnipeg shows. However the quality was better than most videos taken from the Canadain leg of the tour. also note that I think I am now a lesbian and have a major crush on both of them but more so Sara.
