Back door slam at the WCL (XPN)

I'm a little delayed on this one, this concert took place at the World Cafe live in Philadelphia on the 25th January. Some pics:

BDS's frontman Davy Knowles really shined onstage with his guitar playing and his voice. I'm an ignorant in guitar playing, but still there's no chance that this guy is bad at it. I'm also an ignorant in this style of music, so I'm not review them, but I have to say I really liked him , he was talented, fresh, natural and genuinely special. The audience totally fell for them.
Meet and greet was long, and funny, because people buying the cd would also get a signed poster for free, but 99% of them would still hand them a cd sleeve to sign .. or the other side of the poster!!!. Can't blame them, it's just the excuse to talk to them...(but I don't think they'll be giving away any more signed posters like that). They were happy and sort of overwhelmed by people's reaction, super nice with everybody.
It seems their record label really believes in them and specially in their potential in the US (they're already playing Bonnaroo this year), so they're getting their chance and they're not wasting it.

I spent a part of the performance quite enthraled following Knowles's fingers on the guitar. So I took a picture of his hands (I asked, it sounded so weird, very, but he was fine with it). Why would taking a pic of a guitarist's hands be weirder than taking one of his face anyway?. Here it is:

And by the way, they were giving away free download cards, I took one to give away in the blog to whoever's interested first (hope it's ok!!), enjoy!!:
