The Dodos are talented guys, but they sure don’t make it easy for the audience. Their spectacular displays of percussive folk would have taken the breath away if they hadn’t gone on forever, and the variable quality of their song-writing was sadly spotlighted by their insistence on playing mostly lesser-known (read: aimless) material. What made it worse is that they finally got the formula right during the encore, leaving us to wonder how good they could’ve if they’d been that focussed and engaging throughout. Pretty good, but not nearly as good as they should be.
