They were outside of the barriers? I mean, they played in the middle of a suburban mall parking lot. That shit can hold a liot of people, and there were a shitload of people just sitting on the grass. Plus, since the band heard that the media were hyping the show, they naturally decided to put the barriers further from the stage.

My father, brother, and I are going to see Kenny Wayne Shepherd the 19th, as an early Father's Day present. Should be good.

Holy Christ, they're still making music? That is awesome enough news. The fact that they're touring kinda gives me hope for humanity.

Download festival yesterday ruled. Saw Unearth, Anathema (meh), tried hard to avoid a Day To Remember, then saw Coheed and Cambria, Them Crooked Vultures (I guess most of their set was jamming, I couldn't really tell. My friend wanted to see them) then AC/DC (ridiculous stage with a train, cannon, fireworks).

It was a long but awesome day.

Going to Siren on Coney Island this year. It's free so why the hell not. Not as good a lineup as some previous years (they had Broken Social Scene two years ago which is a tough act to follow) but Matt and Kim, Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, Wye Oak, and a bunch of others is nothing to scoff at I suppose.

Pat they've released more albums this side of 2000 than they did in their heyday. Every time I blink they're touring another damn record.

typically it depends on the venue, but with iggy it doesn't really matter. i would just make sure to stay in the first 3-4 rows of the pit and you'll probably get up there

so, suis la lune fucking ripped as usual. didn't see the whole set but whatever, i might see em july 3rd so its all cool. they have a tour 7" of two new songs that are gonna be on the full length, might try and rip that later this week since my buddy got it. also saw pala, fair root, the wankys, lotus fucker, and the feed (local dc screamo). pala and lotus fucker ruled, fair root i missed cause i was having a conversation with the dude from protagonist records (though im not sure now since he was a baltimore dude and i think protagonist is based out of arizona, but he was also selling then new sed non satiata), and the wankys fucking blew, their guitar tone is god awful. the feed was cool as usual, but they're just a bunch of kids still.

online, for now -- printed eventually, maybe. I didn't actually manage to stay for Brokencyde: I was only there originally because a friend of mine opened for them, and I found myself getting the hell out of dodge by the time their third shitty opener came on.

I don't know which fate would be worse, them being one-hit-burnouts or the current scenario. As long as they're making decent music, I'll allow it.

Really want to see Pavement / Sonic Youth / No Age at The Hollywood Bowl on 9/30, but also really poor and will have crazy travel expenses this summer.

Superchunk at the Henry Fonda in October will have to sate me, I guess.

1- Buy tickets to Sleep

3- Declare Victory

I am working at T in the Park on Sunday. If my calculations (assumptions) are correct, this means that I get to see Broken Social Scene, Frightened Rabbit, The Prodigy for free.

If not, I get paid 60 quid to server beer to a bunch of drunk neds.
