Here's what the Los Angeles Times<http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/music_blog/2011/05/live-review-tv-on-the-radio-at-the-music-box.html> had to say about TV On The Radio's live show....

"Rarely has a band played with so much joy after such a blindsiding heartbreak as TV on the Radio did on Wednesday night at the Music Box....
(The)  set used that sentiment as a starting point. Rather than take the occasion as a somber, austere memorial to Smith, the band wore some inspired Devo-ish hats and cracked wise onstage; the magnificently bearded guitarist Kyp Malone teasingly introduced singer Tunde Adebimpe with a string of unpronounceable nonsense.
Guitars hit with dumb Stooges fury, synthesizers brightened the margins and multi-instrumentalist Jaleel Bunton had a bass sound that felt like an animal stalking you in the wilderness. Adebimpe's wail remains one of the most evocative in rock....
And in the end, TVOTR's more immediate desires won out. The falsetto-soul lullaby of "Province" felt as timeless as a standard, and by the time they got to the wire-tense single "Wolf Like Me," several thousand people singing the outro of "We're howling forever, oh oh" seemed a better parting sound for a friend than any church bell...".
