Broken Social Scene.

What does a hippie look like in 2010? While the answer potentially lies in the tie-dyed audience of a Phish show, based on last night’s show, hippies in 2010 look an awful lot like Broken Social Scene. Sure, they wear jeans and blazers, but they do things like name their latest album Forgiveness Rock Record and ride bicycles around the stage before their encores.

Furthermore, they exhibit a clear desire to share the love. Nine of the nineteen contributing members of Broken Social Scene came to the Warner Theatre last night, and of those nine, four of them shared lead vocal duties, while bandleader Kevin Drew took time to promote at least three of the members’ additional projects. But the audience didn’t need to worry about feeling left out of the lovefest onstage. Near the end of the set, the entire band came down to dispense hugs, high-fives and, of course, unsolicited advice.
