Fun Stuff > BAND
I got tickets for Modest Mouse.
Phaedra:
I saw them in January and it was one of the worst concert experiences of my life. Which isn't to say it was entirely the Mouse's fault - the gig was at a festival, which was a 6 hour drive away, the rest of the lineup was absolute crap, it was a disgustingly hot day etc. MM were scheduled to play at 3PM but there was a fuckup with their gear at the airport 6 hours away in the city, so they were rescheduled for 11 PM. The band that was on before them played for way too long, and MM got on stage at 11:30. The few songs they managed to play were pretty good, they played some older stuff as well; but the audience was shit, screaming for Smiths songs and Float on. Then the band was asked to exit the stage at 12, and just walked off without another word. Disappointing.
Buuut if you're not seeing them at some crappy festival I bet it will be awesome.

I saw Modest Mouse right when Float On was at the height of it's popularity, and I went for Camper Van Beethoven, who were opening. I was bored and went back into the bar during MM's set. The crowd was full of people who don't normally go to shows, so it was a lot of being squeezed by the people around me and it was obvious that Modest Mouse were bored with what they were playing, as it was towards the end of the tour.
I would pay the $30 just for Man Man though no matter what the crowd was like.

I saw them this summer, and it was pure beauty. "Paper thin walls" followed by "Little motel" and so on. I love the modest mouse-sound, itīs an atmosphere.

Man Man puts on one hell of a show. I just saw them a couple weeks ago at a small venue. Dance party. The last MM show I went to had a bnunch of teeny boppers moshing (I use that term loosely). They played some older stuff- Doin the Cockroach, Trailer Trash.... I wanted them to play Never Ending Math Equation, but no dice.
