Finally! I've been wanting to see Kings of Leon live since 2007, and got to check that off the life bucket list in Las Vegas. We got tickets back in April, and have been counting down for months! The rain between our place in Lindon and St George was pretty much relentless, but nothing was going to stop us from getting down to the Boulevard Brew Fest which KoL were headlining. We arrived in time to have some dinner, and hear KONGOS and Young the Giant, who were performing also. They were both pretty good, but we just couldn't wait to see Kings!
We have seen plenty of live KoL videos, and we knew that they were going to be good, but I can't stress how good they were. There aren't many bands who sound even better live than recorded, but Kings of Leon are one of those bands! They played just about every song that we wanted, even some older songs that we didn't think they'd play:
Supersoaker
Taper Jean Girl
Fans
Family Tree
The Bucket
Closer
The Immortals
Mi Amigo
Mary
Knocked Up
Pyro
McFearless
Notion
Temple
Radioactive
Molly's Chambers
Don't Matter
Cold Desert
Use Somebody
Crawl
Black Thumbnail
Sex on Fire
Sex on Fire
Laleinia and I just let ourselves go; singing every word and dancing like nobody was watching! Its a good job that they aren't doing a Celine Dion and staying in Vegas because we would be there every weekend. Definitely not the last time that we will see KoL live.
