Boys Like Girls Tear Up NYC

November 29, 2009

“Man I miss playing New York City,” says Boys Like Girls frontman Martin Johnson as the band gets onstage at Nokia Theatre Tuesday night.

And it would appear New York missed BLG back!
Hundreds of fans – many of whom started lining up around three a.m. – wrapped around the Times Square venue Tuesday, singing BLG tunes, sharing stories, and getting ready to see the band play with Cobra Starship, The Maine, A Rocket to the Moon and VersaEmerge.
“We just put this record out called Love Drunk,” Johnson announced during the show, before rocketing into a slew of new and old hits: “Thunder,” “Hero/Heroine,” “Heart Heart Heartbreak,” “Five Minutes to Midnight,” “Shot Heard ‘Round the World” and “Love Drunk,” to name a few.
Of course we brought back a killer clip: BLG’s balls-out opening number of Black Eyed Peas‘ “I Gotta Feeling” transitioning into “Love Drunk.”
