I'm fully expecting to be 95% disappointed in Drew this year. [/i][/quote] I met him last year, and believe me, 95% disappointed is being nice. Wait, where is Daver?

I was going to ask how you stand those people, and then I was like, How can anybody stand US people? Your mom doesn't seem to have much of a problem with it. Ooooooooh, I have a friend who loves mom jokes. Didn't know they were fair game on dees here boards.

From a "what bands makes sense at Sasquatch regardless of tour dates" standpoint, I've had SBTRKT on my list for months. However, it looks like his dates match up nicely with a late April trek through Seattle, Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, then headling to Europe and playing several shows throughout the month of May leading up to Primavera. I'm just saying it's not a lock.

Looks like whoever SBTRKT is will be at Sasquatch. 03/21 – Nashville, TN @ Mercy Lounge * 03/22 – Atlanta, GA @ Masquerade * 03/24 – Tampa, FL @ The Orpheum 03/25 – Miami, FL @ Ultra Music Festival 03/27 – Athens, GA @ Georgia Theatre * 03/28 – Asheville, NC @ The Orange Peel ^ 03/30 – Washington, DC @ 9:30 Club ^ 03/31 – Philadelphia, PA @ Theatre of Living Arts ^ 04/02 – Brooklyn, NY @ Music Hall of Williamsburg (DJ Set) # 04/03 – New York, NY @ Webster Hall # 04/04 – Boston, MA @ Paradise ^ 04/06 – Cleveland, OH @ House of Blues ^ 04/07 – Chicago, IL @ House of Blues ^ 04/08 – Madison, WI @ Majestic ^ 04/10 – Boulder, CO @ Fox Theatre ^ 04/11 – Aspen, CO @ Belly Up ^ 04/13 – San Diego, CA @ House of Blues * 04/14 – Indio, CA @ Coachella Music Festival 04/16 – San Francisco, CA @ The Independent * 04/18 – Portland, OR @ Wonder Ballroom * 04/21 – Indio, CA @ Coachella Music Festival While I have little doubt SBTRKT will be there, I wouldn't call him a lock. First, assuming he is not a multi-millionaire, it wouldn't make sense for him to play Seattle the night after Portland, because he has to drive back to Indio. It's not like he is intentionally skipping Seattle/Vancouver yet. Also, he is in Europe before and after the festival. Even though I dislike pretty much every band with a similar style, for I some reason I really liked the SBTRKT album.

I saw the Portland show the night before. If I had it all over to do again, I would be in a punk rock band. All you need to do is perform stupid tricks and be funny in between songs, and ten years later you have a devoted following. You don't even need musical talent. I took that road, it's not as easy as they make it seem. The NOFX's of this world are rare. Did you enjoy the show? It seemed to have a lot to do with being the last night of their tour, but having seen them many times before I was not expecting to be so impressed (as much by the stupid tricks and jokes as the music). Oh yeah, I enjoyed the show. It's fun living in a non-PC world for 90 minutes. And the reason bands like NOFX are rare is because punks tend to grow up. It's hard to remain true to form when you're listening to Jack Johnson on the side.

I can't wait to hate that Lana Del Rey album. And that Cloud Nothings album is really, really awesome. It's infectious. I think it would be a horrible 50-minute album, but at just over thirty it's perfect. Y'all are crazy with Cloud Nothing and Youth Lagoon. I'd rather listen to "Video Games" for the same amount of time as both of those albums. So no matter how god awful shitty her album will be the stone cold truth is that it will be better than those two albums. Cloud Nothings and Youth Lagoon are just like that Yuck band to me, what is the point. Not only do they sound musically like the bands that are directly influencing them, they are lyrically identical and they even emote in the same manner as their influences. One of the reasons I like the Youth Lagoon album so much is because it only sounds like Youth Lagoon. It's unique in the sense that none of the songs remind me of any other band, especially not Yuck.

So I know I have repeatedly said that the Sanity Clause will probably be looser than ever this year, but please fuckin' god hold good and true for Odd Future who have a show in Seattle on Apr. 11. I don't agree with your theory the clause will be looser. The only difference this year is that AZ has asked everyone not to release their NW tour dates like bands have in the past. That is why everyone releasing tour dates has a Seattle date, because they have no restriction on when they can release their tour dates. I guess it depends on how you define "looser," but you're not going to see 20+ bands on the lineup with Seattle dates this spring.

They play a fun style of music which translates to a fun live show. The dudes stupid haircut was about the only thing I didn't like. Noelle Skaggs is a phenomenal performer, which leads me to believe this band won't be around three years from meow when she goes solo. Wow, she is great. I think Fig was implying it sucked they played the same show twice, but when your catalogue is about 15 songs, that's pretty common. I wouldn't hold that against them. Heck, I'd gladly pay to see the same 15 songs performed again. \\ Yeah, I've meow watched Local Natives play the same show thrice, but you don't have many options when you've only written about 15 songs. Enjoyable nonetheless. At least Fitz played two cover songs, and at least one new song. The Local Natives played their album with no variation when I saw them.

Longshot, but did anybody see NOFX in Seattle last night? I saw the Portland show the night before. If I had it all over to do again, I would be in a punk rock band.

How was Fitz and the Tantrums, Know? They play a fun style of music which translates to a fun live show. The dudes stupid haircut was about the only thing I didn't like. Noelle Skaggs is a phenomenal performer, which leads me to believe this band won't be around three years from now when she goes solo. Wow, she is great. I think Fig was implying it sucked they played the same show twice, but when your catalogue is about 15 songs, that's pretty common. I wouldn't hold that against them. Heck, I'd gladly pay to see the same 15 songs performed again.

I'm sure no one but me cares.... I picked up a pair of tickets to Concrete Blonde in Jan. as a Christmas present for my mom! I was actually pretty shocked when I found out they were coming to town, but it's a nice coincidence since they've been creeping back into my regular listening since I picked them for album of the week. I'm kinda killing two birds with one stone by giving the tickets to my mom, but I know she'll love 'em too. Last night, after Fitz & The Tantrums ended, I remembered Concrete Blonde was playing across the street, so I convinced the doorman to let myself and the couple I was with in for free (tickets were $25 each). We ended up seeing over 30 minutes of her set, and were completely convinced she would end with "Joey." She didn't, and we later found out she played it as her third song. Crap. Although she appeared to be completely wasted while addressing the crowd, her songs and voice sounded spot on. At one point I looked at the couple I was with and said, "What's going on?" The guy looked at me weird while the woman laughed her ass off.

Leave my other personality alone! I seem like a sasquatch expert over there compared to here. I thought this was funny considering Daver told the Coachella board he never picked up Sasquatch posters because he was always too drunk, then they explained to him you can't purchase them at the festival, and he was like, "really? I didn't know that." Daver: 4chella Sasquatch Expert (Compared To Here). I remembered to post this because I heard an Alanis Morrisette song. You two are forever linked.

I like math too. I calculated, November 22nd was 64 days ago. You have 584 posts since then. 584/64 is over 9 posts per day, and that's not counting all the posts you deleted (looks like about 47 of them). Math is fun. You calculated 47 deletions how? Message boards, how do they work?

Someone found my Portland blog by googling the phrase, "The Black Keys are assholes." This makes me very happy.

I'm not sure if visually calming was the intention. So visually agitating was the intention?
