Modest Mouse

In March 2008, when Modest Mouse performed live at The Arena in Brisbane, they were riding high on the wave of success from their 2007 album, 'We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank.' This album marked a significant point in their career, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200 and showcasing their unique blend of indie rock and experimental sounds. Notably, it featured the hit single 'Dashboard,' which really resonated with fans. The live recording captures the band's eclectic energy in a venue that seems a bit underwhelming with 'bad lighting and sound,' but hey, that's part of the charm of live music, isn’t it? This performance was a testament to Modest Mouse's ability to connect with audiences, even in less-than-ideal conditions, reminding us that it’s all about the experience.
