Picture Book & Live Review: Metric @ the Tabernacle October 1st, 2012.

It’s my newly “professional” opinion that two nights in a row at the Tabernacle is not a bad thing. With Animal Collective on Sunday and then Metric on Monday, the venue was able to feed my hunger for two completely separate genres of great music. Openers, Half Moon Run entered the Tabernacle for their performance […]
