 Nicole Atkins & the Sea
 "The record calls to mind Roy Orbison if he were a woman; the bleak visions of Nick Cave and Leonard Cohen; the darkly mysterious girl group-on-acid musings of Julee Cruise and Lynch composer Angelo Badalamenti; the sorrow of Patsy Cline, the â??60s experimentation of Love and Nuggets; all with a redeeming sense of hope amidst the emotional wreckage that is all Nicole."

Nicole Atkins is so awesome. That was a really good one-hour set.
 
 I think the setlist was something like:
 1.) Party's Over
 2.) Maybe Tonight
 3.) Carouselle
 4.) The Way It Is
 5.) Cool Enough (extended ending)
 6.) Kill the Headlights
 7.) I Wait For You
 8.) Together We're Both Alone (acoustic)
 9.) Brooklyn's On Fire
 10.) Teen Creep (?)
 11.) Love Surreal
 12.) Neptune City
 ---
 13.) The Crystal Ship (The Doors cover)
 
 The band tore through "Love Surreal," and "Cool Enough" seemed a bit heavier to me. I liked the new songs, and it was nice to see "Carouselle." "Together We're Both Alone" stripped down sounded really nice, and I was surprised to see so many people knew "Brooklyn's On Fire." Kudos, D.C.!
 
 I feel a bit jipped that we didn't get "War Torn," and Nicole's vocals went a bit distorted on one of the mid-set songs, but overall, a great show.
