The Doves Concert at Kool Haus Jun 1st 2009 was incredible! It was my third time seeing Doves live and they were great. They played lots of their new material off of "Kingdom of Rust" which is the 4th effort from the Manchester trio. The new songs translated very well live which is was iffy given the slick production of the record but, as predicted, Doves did not disappoint.
The band also played a very nice mix of older material including “Break Me Gently”, “Catch the Sun” and “The Man Who Told Everything” Black and White Town”, “Caught by the River”, “The Cedar Room” and set closer “There Goes the Fear”.
For those who have never seen Doves live you must certainly be sure to check them out next time they are in town. Besides, with them being Brits and all they only seem to stop by every two years or so.
