The Shins looked very different at the Gorge this weekend from the last time I saw them a few years ago, the new line-up including Yuuki Mathews (bass), Jessica Dobson (guitar), and Richard Swift (Keyboards), which in itself changed the mood a little but not in a bad way, just a different one. The atmosphere felt very “Shinlike” with the sun setting behind the stage lighting the entire gorge a soft orange. This truly is one of the greatest venues in the world.
