Harry and the Potters | Live at the Central Library
I had no idea what to expect when my sister invited me out to Minneapolis’ brand new Central Library to see Harry and the Potters. I was expecting a group of 40-something folgies playing cheesy songs about J.K. Rowling’s books to a bunch of toddlers. But what I ended up experiencing was one of the best rock shows of my life! Seriously.
These guys put on one hell of a show for the 200+, standing room only crowd. My sister and I had to sit on the stairs in the back of the theater, because no place else was left. It was OFF THE CHAIN!!!
After openers, Draco and the Malfoys, warmed up the crowd, Harry and the Potters took the stage to a standing ovation from the mostly highschool-age crowd. They immediately broke into one of their most popular songs, “I Am a Wizard”, off of their first album, which was released about 3 years ago.
The songs that elicited the most excitement from the crowd were “Save Ginny Weasley”, “Voldemort Can’t Stop the Rock!”, and “SPEW” - a song that had the crowd chanting “GROSS!!” and “UGLY!!” in reference to the evil troll that Harry and the gang slayed in the first book.
Overall, this show was one of the best I have ever seen. EVER. Period. These guys rock.

[...] Dude. Harry and the Potters totally ROCKED last night at the Central Library. Read the review!!! They are on a nationwide tour that has them playing about 45 shows in 30 days. That’s pretty fucking hardcore, even by hardcore standards. [...]
