Yeah, she's a very natural performer.

Actually, it was the poster for the concert that made me aware she even had a new album and so I bought a ticket for the concert like two days before the event but still haven't picked up the CD. Maybe I'll do that tonight. The new stuff sounded good at the concert.

I love Manchester Orchestra! Seen them about 5 times now. It doesn't hurt that they are best friends with my favorite band (Brand New) so that really accounts for the number of times I have seen them. But MEAN EVERYTHING TO NOTHING was tops for me last year. I wore the fuck out of that record.
Have fun, Moo! Pride is so bad ass live!

Yes indeed! I can't wait. Going with my brother and my best friends to my favorite venue in Seattle (The Showbox, if anyone is ever here). I've had Mean Everything going constantly for months as well, so I'm pretty jazzed about this one. I've never seen them live.

These guys are a decent sulky mellow rock band. Kinda old fashioned hippy folk stuff. They don’t have a great stage presence but it’s hard to imagine this kind of music facilitating big charisma. This was a nice little show.

This was a band of young guys doing surf rock music. It was a bit weird how everybody in the audience gradually got won over by them. I just kept hearing people saying they were warming up to them as the show went on. Their stuff was a bit like MGMT and maybe Vampire Weekend and not bad to have on in the background. Nothing special, but they’re on their way up in the circuit of music you can comfortably ignore.

so sorry wrote:Going to see U2 tonight. Saw a picture of the stage set up....looks like a freaking roadies worst nightmare. As I said in another music thread, U2 always puts on a good show even if I have to stuff cotton in my ears between songs so I don't have to listen to Bono blather on about his causes. Not that there's anything wrong with his causes, but I just paid over 100 bucks per ticket to see you sing and to forget about the real world for a few hours.

I'm not much of a U2 fan, but several of my friends went a few weeks ago when they were in Seattle and apparently U2's still got it. They all said the tix were well worth the money.

Oh yeah.
I was passing one such joint on Milwaukee Street when I heard two guys jamming their asses off.
I looked in the window and there he was - BB Fucking King.
Apparently he just wandered by and decided to sit in. For a couple of hours.
So good. So damned good.
