Great time. Violent Femmes were as you would expect if you've watched their live stuff, which is a compliment even though maybe a lazily typed one, I had high/certain expectations so there wasn't a surprise there. Echo and the Bunnymen though was a million times better than I expected it to be. They actually sounded better than their studio CDs and the lead singer's voice has actually improved (very rare). He sounds slightly more like Jim Morrison now. They really murdered it. If you get a chance to see them, even if you're just a casual fan like me, they really do well live. That or I got lucky and saw their best performance or something. But they killed it.

Personally I would enjoy Violent Femmes the more of the two, but both by themselves would be great. Together would have been killer.
Femmes were never over produced so I would guess live they sound pretty much as you always thought they sounded.

I was looking more forward to VF but Echo and the BM were more of a surprise. They just killed it. VF actually sounded "more produced" live because of the microphoneing (guess I made that word up) and their track mixing was not really perfect. Their CDs sound more...raw, or maybe just mixed better. Still great though.
