The location of the concert was different from the last concert we went to on the island. Rather than a stage next to the water ('the beach'), looking over Manhattan, the stage was in land in a field surrounded by trees and old colonial buildings ('Colonel's row').
We scored a possie up front and chilled for a bit - that is until the bands started playing. The speaker in front of us had the bass turned up soo soo loud that you could feel the reverberations in every part of your body.
The opening bands for Passion Pit were Tokyo Police Club, We Were Promised Jetpacks (Scotland) & Suckers. The Jetpacks were AWESOME! It was Passion Pit's final show of their tour so they were pretty pumped.



When the gig ended - 7000 people did an about-turn and rushed for the ferries. Urgh! It was chaos and mayhem. The line moved bumper-to-bumper so slowly. It took us 1 hour to even get on the ferry home. That's the only problem with going to a gig on an island.
