The crowd was young and excited Thursday night at the Beaumont Club for the Irish lads Two Door Cinema Club. Richie Follin’s Guards opened the night with their lo-fi indie pop. Friends came out blazing, soaked in reverb, and entertained with a stage full of personality and electronic beats. But the kids just lost it when it was time for Two Door Cinema Club to take the stage. They didn’t disappoint and even treated the crowd to “The World Is Watching,” a song they had yet to perform live. The audience ate it up, singing along and hanging on every word.
