Celebration Rock-stagram: 12 rad photos of Japandroids at the Paradise last night

Via @K_D

Let's just say that Sunday was Japandroids Day here at PHXHQ, kicking off with Dave's visit to the WFNX studios for a station-takeover DJ set at noon, and ending with their fucking awesome sold-out show at the Paradise, which -- as you can see below -- everyone in Boston was Instagramming the shit out of as it happened. Brian gets infinite scene points for playing the entire show while deathly ill, though you'd never know it from his fuck-all demeanor and repeated threats to snuff out any stage-divers who overstayed their 10-second welcome. He also had the wisdom to wait for the final song to talk shit about the Bruins. Hey, the whole thing ruled right up til the minute the guy in the B's jersey figured out the 'Droids are Canucks fans. And actually, things only went up from there. 

P.S. to whomever brought the astronaut helmet: good call.
