K'naan at S.O.B.s

We went to see K'naan a while back at this amazing venue in the Lower East Side called SOBs. The show took place on the day after his new album "Troubadour" came out, so the energy was amazing. He has a really interesting style and I was a little curious as to how it would go over in a live show; but there was no reason to worry, he was amazing! If you ever get a chance to see one of his shows, you should definitely check it out - it was one of the best performances I've seen in a long time. The crowd was really diverse and had such a great, positive energy. When he went to perform one of the bigger songs off his album, "Waving Flag", he was totally shocked that a huge percentage of the audience already knew the words to the song... he seemed genuinely touched and surprised.
