Greg Jacquin attended last week’s gig and shares the following photos & review. Dr. Dog played host to a packed crowd at New York’s Terminal 5. That’s a big deal! Not just because the band has a new album out called Shame Shame. Not just because the guys had family in the crowd to share their glorious moment but also because this is a little more proof that Dr. Dog is one of the best live acts around today. Guitarist/vocalist Scott McMicken, bassist/vocalist Toby Leaman, guitarist Frank McElroy, keyboardist Zack Miller and new drummer Erik Slick performed live with passion and energy. Before launching into ‘Shadow People’, McMicken told the crowd “This is the last night on this tour” and “This is the biggest show we’ve ever played”. They finished the set with ‘Shame Shame’ and after a short break, McMicken was back on stage addressing us like a group of his buddies. “I saw my parents out there, I spotted them. Hi Mom!” before breaking into the encore, ‘Jackie Wants A Black Eye’. The evening concluded with the band storming through Architecture In Helsinki’s ‘Heart It Races’ and finishing with ‘My Friend’.
