Vampire Weekend covers Bruce Springsteen
Vampire Weekend preformed a live cover of Springsteen’s “I’m Goin’ Down” at a show in Vancouver on Saturday. If I had to pick a perfect band to cover Springsteen, Vampire Weekend would not be on the list: Vampire Weekend is upbeat but sad and sings about punctuation. Adjectives good enough to describe Springsteen (most of the time) have not yet been invented. Nevertheless: the combination of the two is pretty great.
