Follow the music

It's our first night in Vienna, Sunday night, and the streets and squares are filled with people enjoying the balmy weather. After a meal of hearty Viennese cuisine, we head back on foot to our hotel. Hearing music, we decide to follow it to an impressive temporary stage plopped into the most magnificent square. Moonlight Breakfast performed a mix of moody vocals and electronic beats. Then an overly earnest and derivative Austrian band--think U2 meets Death Cab For Cutie in German. But you have to love a city that organizes summer concerts of new music and a population that stays up late to watch them on a school night.
