Festival Plan: Although they're the biggest act on Day 1 of Firefly 2015, I have not placed a priority on seeing them perform.
Relevant Links:
Young Rising Sons at Firefly 2015 (setlist.fm)*
The Kooks (Wikipedia.org)
*Edited the setlist on 20150628.
Pre-Festival Thoughts:
The Kooks have a pretty cool sound.
Excellent*: 'Naive' [2+] -- one of those awesome hits for which I never associated a band name -- it's catchy, but the song topic is sad/negative
Above Average: 'Down', 'Westside'
Slightly Above Average: ~
On the Fence: ~
*Songs with 2 or more '+'s are considered 'Excellent'. The number of '+'s are found in brackets.
Setlist:
?+0) Sweet Emotion
?+1) Forgive & Forget
-- encore:
E1) See Me Now
E2) Junk of the Heart (Happy)
E3) Naive
Post-Festival Thoughts:
While watching Tycho, I realized that I would regret it if I didn't go and see The Kooks play a couple of songs and sped on over.
Luckily for me, they saved the best (i.e., the ones that everybody knows) for last. In particular, I got to hear them perform 'Naive'!
Getting to hear 'Naive' was a great way to end the night.
I should, however, note that I'm glad I ended up seeing a little of X Ambassadors and a little of Tycho instead of solely seeing The Kooks.
