There's the "10 must see bands thread", but this is a bit different. Which bands this year put on such a good show that you should see them whether or not you're a big fan of their music?

and also i've heard really good things about a couple bands from friends.
My Morning Jacket is a real cool instrumental surf band from tennessee worth checking out. They play with masks on. Check out the album !Viva!.
The Stand Still, Pyrite, Afternoon Commute, Panther Sex, and Hot Coffee are all definitely worth checking out too.
And Twilight Opening Weekend was really successful. They made like $142 million. I can't wait to see New Moon on the main stage big screen friday night.

no love for the asain robots Saw them on Friday. They put on a good show, brought lots of energy, and seemed like genuinely nice guys. I'd definitely recommend it but I can't say that you'd enjoy them if you're not all that familiar with their songs.

Of those mentioned so far, I'm looking forward to Pyrite, Ass Fault, Jack & the BEANS-TALK (there must be a fart joke here), and the Besnard Latkes.
Also of interest, the Absoulte Worst, who sound worse than the Dull Repulsion Stars.

One more note on Asian Robots that I thought about while doing laundry--
The Friday show was 21+. So you can imagine my contempt/frustration when an honest-to-god push pit breaks out on the floor. Think 14-year-olds at an ICP concert. God-awful.
And considering the young crowd that shows up for Sasquatch, it's almost a guarantee that this band's set will be plagued by some of the most ignorant mosh attempts you've ever seen in your life.

I'm just going to use real band names and say that I hosted Japandroids and Portugal. The Man at my school last night for an outdoor show. Japandroids worked pretty great outside and I was surprised how clear the vocals were. I'm guessing it would be more muddled in a club but expect them to be clear at Sasquatch. Really fun set and while there was definitely a mosh pit, it was really mellow, no slam dancing or anything.
Portugal. The Man were amazing beyond words. I can't recommend them enough. The set they're playing right now is so damn good and the guys are all amazingly nice as well.
