Florence & The Machine @ Deer Lake Park, Burnaby, July 20, 2012

I've been a fan of them for about 6 years but such are the vagaries of touring/living in Vancouver that I'd only seen them once (at the Commodore) so when the (very large venue/very expensive) Deer Lake show was announced I couldn't resist.  I hate big venues and there are very few artists that I'd go see in such a setting but Florence is one of them.  She'd cancelled a couple of shows the week before due to  'vocal problems' the week before but she sounded as wonderful as I'd remembered.  A true talent.  My only complaint (aside from the screeching woman behind me) was the two backup singers ... I didn't want to hear anyone singing other than Florence.
