so i was lucky enough to of had the opportunity to see both of these incredible bands live one week after the other. So the first show I saw was the Kings of Leon Show down at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto. I even have some photos I took at the show you can check out below. Now these boys were absolutely phenomenal. Everything from the sound to the live stage performance was amazing. Caleb's vocals were spot on and the harmonies between Caleb (Lead Singer/Guitar) and his brother Nathan (Drummer/Background Vocals) were very tight. They started the show with a song called Charmer from one of their earlier albums I believe it was "Because of the Times" released in 2007. This song really set the tone of the show as it was up beat and really got the crowd moving. They then continued to play past hits throughout the show such as Notion, Use Somebody, Radioactive, Back Down South, Pyro and Sex on Fire all of which are amazing tunes. Also they of course played songs off of their current album "Mechanical Bull" such as Supersoaker and Temple. All in all the show was amazing and is probably the second best rock show I have ever seen, next to the FOO FIGHTERS of course.
The following week I went and saw Imagine Dragons. Now this band was also amazing. Everything from the vocals, to the drums and overall stage performance was outstanding. Fronted by Dan Reynolds, this band is definitely one to keep an eye out for as they progress into their career and continue to create albums. His voice is so unique and really does work well for the style of music they play. They played songs such as On Top of the World, It's Time and my two favourites Radioactive and Demons. I will admit this band is not one of my "all-time favourites" I will admit they are really good and definitely recommend seeing them if you're into the alternative rock scene.
At the end of it all i am going to have to say that Kings of Leon put on the better show, but this is because the Kings of Leon are one my favourite bands so yes this recommendation is biased haha
