it's a practice space party, i think

money pays bands' rent most likely

5/22/2010 9:18:22 PM

yeah

I was told it was going to be a house party

practice space makes more sense

5/22/2010 9:19:23 PM

saw amber pacific tonight. good show and they'll be at the brewery in july.

5/23/2010 2:14:39 AM

I saw Valiant Thor, Baroness, BtBam, and Mastodon last night in knoxville at the Valarium. Was not into Valiant Thor (sounded sort of like redneck party metal) but Baroness stole the show overall. I like BtBam and Mastodon alot but Baroness just came out and owned their set. It was nice to see

5/23/2010 2:49:55 AM

has anyone seen phoenix before? i have a ticket for the show at uptown amphitheatre in charlotte and am wondering how the sound is going to translate outdoors.

5/23/2010 3:55:43 PM

they sound almost exactly like the record

which isn't necessarily a bad thing

^^so when do the DC tix go on sale? i thought i'd seen tomorrow somewhere, but now can't seem to validate that.

6/3/2010 5:09:42 PM

philly went on sale this morning

i put in for 4, decided i didnt feel like spending $260 this morning, backed out, went for 2, and ended up 26 rows back from where i had the block of 4.

big mistake.

6/4/2010 10:28:23 AM

has anyone seen Phoenix live? I'm going to their show next week in CLT. I've finally gotten a few of my close friends into the indie scene and Phoenix was one of the bands they latched onto pretty fast.

The Love Language got put on the Phoenix shows tomorrow and Saturday.

Crazy.

^^ I haven't heard any of their specific duet material, but there's a duet on one of his solo records called "End of the Affair" that's pretty good. It's not anything more than a standard alt-country song, but it's a decent one.

"LOS ANGELES, CA - Thursday, June 3, 2010 -- After nearly 40 sold out shows on three continents since Fall, 2009, The Pixies are bringing The Doolittle Tour back to the U.S.A. The 11-city trek kicks off on September 7 at the Tower Theatre in Philadelphia and will extend the 20th anniversary celebration of the release of the band's classic 1989 album, Doolittle. All of the shows will be recorded and the CDs will be made available immediately after every show at the band's merch table; all live CDs can also be ordered at http://www.doolittlelive.com. Fuck Buttons, the two-piece electronic pop group from Bristol, England, will open all shows. "

I'm not even into Deadmau5 really, but his setup and his show in general was fucking crazy at Bonnaroo. I had a good time.

6/28/2010 1:21:03 PM

"welp the Dodos absolutely stole that show"

This.

The Dodos were incredible, The New Pornos were very average. Kinda what I expected, though. Still blows my mind that The Dodos' drummer doesn't play with a kick drum.

6/28/2010 2:20:27 PM

that is exactly how I described the New Pornos set after the show

it was probably a combination of the Dodos melting everyone's face off, little crowd interaction, and the crowd

that crowd was pretty horrible

[Edited on June 28, 2010 at 11:15 PM. Reason : I still <3 Neko, though]

6/28/2010 11:08:54 PM

yeah, still love neko, but she wasn't lookin too hot for that show. She looked very tired, as did all of them. Definitely a very low energy show. Agreed about the crowd, there were like 2 kids getting into it at the front and the rest of the people (myself included) just standing still, watching, not really that into it. Kinda odd.

6/29/2010 10:48:43 AM

we had a debate on the ride home about those kids

I thought they were just superfans

my friends thought they were mentally challenged

6/29/2010 1:35:34 PM

hahaha...well, they talked like superfans, but they danced like ratards, so who's to say? funny you should ask, though...whenever that crazy girl without a bra came to the front swaying back and forth like a maniac, my girlfriend said, "oh look, there's superfan #1!"

6/29/2010 2:08:07 PM

not to take away from the indie-hipster movement, but Thrice was much more entertaining than their newest cd led me to believe. Good mix of new and old and their newer stuff sounded much better live than on the album.

6/30/2010 12:13:56 AM

Agreed on the New Pornos show. I thought it was a good set list, but not a lot of energy. I guess that's to be expected after 17 shows in 19 days. And the only crowd interaction was to call out people shouting requests with the wrong song titles. I was in the balcony, so I couldn't see much of the crowd at the ground level.

I'd go to this even if only to see the GBV Dayton lineup live.
