Fun Stuff > BAND
You people go to shows, right? What future shows are you excited about?
J Squared:
Just got back from tonight's concert in Minneapolis. He's definitely not keeping everything the same (outside the core pieces to promote Age of Adz), which is awesome. Casimir Pulaski Day made it into the encore and blew me away. We didn't get John Wayne Gacy, Jr. or Decatur, though. But he basically pulled The Dress Looks Nice on You together kind of on a whim, which was a treat. Looks like the Canadians got screwed out of an amazing encore, thought still good in my opinion.
Christophe:
So Sunday was Day 2 of Treasure Island Music Fest. HOLY SHIT.
Superchunk: Last three songs were "Hyper Enough", "Slack Motherfucker" and "Precision Auto". Basically for like 15 minutes I was non-stop headbanging and moshing.
She and Him: I was pretty much taken aback for how good they were, although Zooey probably was probably sick as she couldn't hit certain notes and such. Several guys had written "Marry Me" on their hands and it had been picked up on the Jumbotron; if I had a sharpie on me I probably would've written "Divorce Ben", just to be a cock.
Broken Social Scene: Crazily epic, although Brendan's guitars kept fucking up, and whoever did sound kept the banjo muted for "Anthems for a 17-Year-Old Girl." Regardless, it was ridiculously epic.
The National: Matt basically stormed through the crowd on their last song. My roommate copped a feel. Like She and Him, I had never really listened to their stuff much but was pretty impressed with them.
Belle and Sebastian: "I'm a Cuckoo" was the SECOND FUCKING SONG. They also played such hits like "Like Dylan in the Movies", "Piazza New York Catcher" (being that it was in San Francisco, Stuart did cheer the Giants, saying "The Phillies don't stand a chance!"), "Step Into My Office, Baby", "Sukie in the Graveyard", "Get Me Away From Here, I'm Dying", and guess what the encore was?
JUDY AND THE MOTHERFUCKING DREAM OF SHITTING HORSES.
Man, being that I saw Sloan in February, Bottomless Pit and Police Teeth in June, and Belle and Sebastian two nights ago, that means I've seen four out of my five favorite bands of all time this year. Hey Neil Young, playing any shows soon?
StaedlerMars:
Christophe, Treasure Island sounds like the best.
Having said that, Primavera Sound will announce their first bands for next summer tonight. I've already bought tickets? The festival is in May? What?
And, I'm going to go see Yeasayer again on Sunday! I think there's like ten of my friends going, that is the most people I will know at a concert I go to.

Probably won't go into the pit because last time I did, everyone was like 14 and I was all :psyduck:
Still stoked though. And the Octopus Project! FFFFFFFfffuck yeah
