Dan Deacon had never really been to Whitefish before, unless you count getting stuck on a train nearby one Christmas Eve, so he didn't really know what to expect. Needless to say, the crowd that showed up for his Monday night show at the Brewery didn't really know what to expect either. Luckily for us, Dan is not very shy. Kicking things off with a countdown and a zippy run through "Okie Dokie," he set the tone immediately. He shook, he mumbled, he tweaked knobs, and he never stopped moving. The crowd responded in fits and spurts, some embracing the incredible energy and others just nodding a little bit. Dan, with a band consisting of an iPod taped to a banana and a buffet table stacked with foot pedals, mixers, wires and tape, never slowed down. Between the pulsing beats erupting from the speakers and the constant dazzle of his own light show extravaganza, he gave the Brewery a one of a kind show that no one is likely to forget.
