THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS

Saturday evening Jenne and I went to the Maryland Science Center for a free outdoor concert by the group, They Might Be Giants. The quirky and eccentric group was invited by the science center to celebrate its grand re-opening after extensive new construction and expansion. The weather was beautiful and their show was great. Below is a sampling of the sixty plus images I shot of the show and of the crowd.

It was packed, but everyone was happy!

Oh, me three :-) Awesome pictures! TMBG are one of my favorite bands. Last year they showed up at my local bookstore to promote their children's book; it was a blast.

I AM SO JEALOUS.

I cannot say how sad I am that I missed this show.

I'm going to bed, bed, bed, bed, bed.

;-)

I think I may try to catch the New York show at the end of the month at The Downtown in Farmington.
