Sodagreen and Foo Fighters concerts

By Tina - September 22, 2015

I went to Sodagreen's 2015 World Tour concert and then to Foo Fighter's World Tour (the Broken Leg Tour) concert the following day. The concerts... were very different. Sodagreen's yes we are a cute indie band from Taiwan and we make happy friends message of the night was so different compared to Foo Fighter's I rock hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! vibe. 

Sodagreen's venue was at the L.A. Sports Arena. It was really hot inside. Not that many people went to the concert, which ended up being a good thing (for us) 'cause it would have been even worse heat-wise. We also ended up getting upgraded seats, which is always a huge plus!!!! The audience mostly consisted of Taiwanese foreign exchange students, so everyone was very small and vocally shy and nothing wild happened. Greeny (the main vocalist) spent a lot of effort coaxing the audience to get up on their feet and show excitement... lol.

The Foo Fighter's venue was at the Forum in Inglewood. There were so many people!!!!!!! And everyone was so lively! I had an amazing time. Dave Grohl has so much energy and I really love his hair. Unfortunately, my friend and I had to leave early to beat the crazy parking lot traffic since he drove from very far away and well, was also my ride. 

Takeaway moments from Sodagreen's concert
- main vocalist Greeny has some serious, SERIOUS singing chops... he sang and talked and jumped around nonstop for over two and a half hours... crazy!!!!
- Zephyr is amazing on the piano and viola, I could listen to him play the viola for hours- so beautiful
- weird avant garde stuff went down during the middle of the concert ...?????
- very intense laser light show at times
- second half of the concert ended up being the band playing audience song requests- awesome!!!!!

some of the songs they played (and some of my favorites!)...
