Light & Platypi

After a fabulous show in Milwaukee on Sunday by the Polyphonic Spree... this song has been stuck on repeat. There are definitely worse things I could have on replay.

The Polyphonic Spree - Light And Day (Reach For The Sun)

There is always something a bit magical about a Polyphonic Spree show... I'm not sure if it's the sheer number of people on-stage harmonizing at once, the positive energy that just radiates from them or just the great songwriting in the first place. Every time I see the spree, I like to look around the venue (or in this case outdoor pavilion) to witness the awe on the faces of those people who have never experienced this before. There is always someone within quick-glance-range who has the stunned deer-in-headlights look at the dancing, harmonizing extravaganza on stage in front of us. It's the same sort of look that a little kid might have at the zoo... the whole "WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THAT" when coming face to face with a platypus. "Mom Look! It's got a beak AND fur AND a beaver tail AND a 7' tall harp player AND a horn section AND two drummers AND a spastic dancing choir in actual choir robes!"
