Goth night

Gothed out and went to see VNV Nation last night at the Phoenix. They're one of my favourite bands—as strange as it is, their music is what I listen to in the middle of depressive episodes to regain my cope—but I didn't actually expect it to be as amazing a show as it was.
Here's the only clip I managed to find. It has unfortunate audio, but you can get a sense of the rare phenomenon of a Toronto crowd going apeshit nuts and singing and dancing (for those of you who don't live here, this never happens, and it happened pretty much throughout the show):

I have to say, it doesn't really seem strange to me to turn to this in the midst of depression.
