Whats wrong with my lineups? I'm pretty sure they kick ass. Who wouldn't want to see: Bright Eyes, The Faint, Helio Sequence, Dr. Dog, Blitzen Trapper, Badly Drawn Boy, Beach House, Beck, Figurines, Yeasayer, Warpaint, Wilco, Tilly and The Wall, Thievery Corporation, Stars, Spoon, Pinback, The Shins, Sea Wolf, Mimicking Birds, Feist, and Her Space Holiday. That sounds pretty solid to me.

That... that is the worst fucking lineup I have ever seen. Even with one or two decent bands in there... Jesus Christ, I sure HOPE you're a troll because if you suck THAT bad I don't even know what to say to you. Except fuck off.
"Let's get back to songwriting the way it's supposed to be... like Badly Drawn Boy and Tilly and the Wall!"
Didn't you get the memo, dude? Badly Drawn Boy only didn't suck for approximately five minutes, and only in England. Bright Eyes is the worst band in the history of forever. The Faint, Helio Sequence, Yeasayer and Her Space Holiday all fit your description of bands that have all producers and no musicians. Tilly and the Wall is horrible twee bullshit, any hipster douche will vote for Spoon, Sea Wolf is a shitty Shins knockoff, Blitzen Trapper bears the curse of having written one incredible song and roughly 40 terrible ones, Dr. Dog have sounded like shit since 'We All Belong', Stars is for teenage lesbians, Beck is a tired has-been, and Beach House/Mimicking Birds/Warpaint/Napoleon Skywalker will probably all be at Sasquatch '11 and be entirely forgotten by Sasquatch '12.
Fucking good thing for you there's such a thing as Pitchfork or you wouldn't have any fucking clue what to listen to, huh. Spinnin' yer dad's old Blue Oyster Cult and Skynyrd records? Getting drunk on Coors light and proclaiming Satriani "A GOD!"? Right? Am I close here? AM I CLOSE YOU FUCKER?
Leave the board and never come back, please, ok?

As far as I'm concerned Blitzen Trapper wrote Wild Mountain Nation and said, "Fuck it, we'll never top this," and stopped writing music altogether.

Blitzen Trapper bears the curse of having written one incredible song and roughly 40 terrible ones Just out of curiosity, which song do you think is their one incredible song?

When I want to hear Bob Dylan, I'll just throw in some Bob Dylan. It isn't as obvious listening to their albums, but live, the voice becomes more Dylanesque.

Well, atleast you didn't bash Pinback in this post. I could give a shit about seeing any of those other bands... Except for Beck! Even if his last good albums were Sea Change and Midnite Vultures

I give that song half-credit for at least seeming to be conscious of where it is trying to get to.

Can you direct me to some of their better songs? I don't see the appeal of a 3 minute long repeating phrase about a Pizza Hut and Taco Bell combination. EDIT: And I'm not taking a jab, I'm serious about wanting to understand their appeal to people. Prepare for a series of replies for various posts from this thread, I'm too lazy to go back and forth. But Wesley Willis already did it. (See "Rock n' Roll McDonald's")

Bright Eyes is the worst band in the history of forever. I'll cover your ass since you forgot: WRONG KID DIED (to be honest, I'm fond of a few Brite I's songs, but overall no thanks)
