Fun Stuff > BAND
So I saw Dinosaur Jr. last night.
Ernest:
hey zerodrone, was this show by any chance in Athens, GA?
I had planned to go to that one, but I ended up with no money.

Nope, Knoxville TN. The Athens show was probably the night before or after, and I'm too lazy to bother looking it up right now.
imapiratearg:
I have heard some Owls and liked it a lot. I can't find any on Soulseek and the album that was upped in the Sendspace Thread has expired.
TheFuriousWombat:
On the topic of encores, I like them a lot but I can understand why certain bands wouldn't do them. Take Explosions in the Sky for example. Their sets are continuous (i.e. no song breaks of stopping for applause during their hour-ish sets. All the songs have transitional pieces to connect them). They never play encores b/c, by their rationale, they've put all they have into the set and it doesn't feel right for their continuous set to end and for them to leave only for them to start again with some other stuff. I can understand that completely. Same deal with bands like Mono and a couple others. The sets seem so draining that I can't imagine performing encores if I was in one of those bands.
More on topic: I like Owls and some other Kinsella bands but I could never love any of them. His voice is just a little bit too...off.
I saw Dinosaur Jr. perform on some late night talk show (Conan maybe?) recently. They were awful.

Talk show performances can be decieving, as I saw Art Brut on a talk show and thought they were total shit.
Now that I've listened to them more, I know that they're only 50% shit.
