Modest Mouse Performs Float On Live Concert
Venue: Westfair Amphitheater
Location: Council Bluffs, Iowa, United States
Date: June 4, 2008
In June 2008, when Modest Mouse performed 'Float On' live at the Westfair Amphitheater, they were riding high on the success of their 2007 album, 'We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank.' This album marked a significant moment for the band as it debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart, showcasing their growing mainstream appeal. Interestingly, this performance came just a year after the release of the album, highlighting the band's dynamic energy in live settings. Although a tornado warning delayed the concert, the band's spirit remained unshakable, drawing an eager crowd that didn't mind the uncertainty. This resilience reflects Modest Mouse's deep connection with their audience—fans were there for the music, weather be damned.
