What makes Spoon so unique is that they seemingly pick up more and more dedicated fans as the years go on. Their sound is very distinct, with Daniel's guitar and nervous-energy songs and drummer Jim Eno's rhythmic intensity. There just seems to be a consistency to a Spoon record that I don't think you get with a lot of other bands. They just repeatedly put out catchy rocks songs that matter to people. At the show Thursday night, I realized that not only do I love Spoon, but I love Spoon fans - they are so diverse. To my left I had a group of frat guys singing every word to every song, to my right were your typical hipsters, behind me were a group of sorority girls and all around you could find men and women in their late 30s/early 40s. It made me realize, "What's not to love about Spoon?" Honestly, Spoon produces hit after hit on every record. For my favorite albums "Gimme Fiction", "Kill The Moonlight", and "Love Ways" there are no "filler songs" - I enjoy every single song on each album. In 2007, I went to the Tallyrand music festival in Jacksonville, FL. Rooney, Polyphonic Spree, Pepper, Expendables, The Bravery, and Spoon were all playing. Unfortunately, due to legitimate reasons, I had to leave before Spoon came on stage. Not a day went by when I listened to Spoon that I regretted leaving. However, Thursday night show was worth the wait.
