Boys Like Girls Rock the State

I'm not sure that you could call Boys Like Girls a boy band, but they definitely have the appeal that the boy bands of the late 90's did. And I don't think these guys would be too angry about that title either? These guys are down to earth and truly love what they do every night!


The State Theatre was packed with girls last night for the show. To be honest, I was surprised how young the crowd was. But they were completely into the show.


They opened with their new single, 'Love Drunk,' which was pretty well received by the girls, and then jammed into 'Hero/Heroine.' They kept their energy high throughout the whole show and the girls jumped along with them. The show closed with their radio hit 'The Great Escape,' and lead singer Martin dove into the crowd. Those girls could have torn him apart. It took three stage techs and another member of the band to get him out of the mess. He came out with all his limbs, but missing clothing pieces, haha.


Overall, the show was great! The State was great, as always, but you have to remember to dress appropriately. Long sleeves and jeans, not good.
