The Hold Steady let out its secret and took the stage to a full house at the Railyard for their MySpace Secret Show — which was also their first show in Montana.
Without hesitation they jumped into a riveting set, opening with “Constructive Summer” from the new album. The sound was muddy in the small venue but it didn’t matter — the show was intimate, just as a “Secret Show” should be.
