March 02, 2008 - Cleveland, OH - The Hives, The Donnas

Venue:  The Agora

This was one of only a couple of shows that I have seen in the Agora Theater.  It's a big place and wasn't full for The Hives this night.

It was cold that night and for some reason we parked down the street in a weird private parking lot.  My girlfriend and I stood towards the back of the theater floor behind the general admission area.

The Donnas had amazing energy, but played to a mostly uniterested, very light crowd.

The Hives were awesome.  They had more energy in their tight set than 90% of the bands that I have seen.  They were touring on the 'Black and White', which was a solid album compared to their next effort 'Lex Hives'.

My girlfriend wanted to see them play the weird country-ish song off their new album called 'Giddy Up!' 

I checked the internet.  They've never played 'Giddy Up!'.
