Sasquatch

its all about Matt Costa's cd, Songs We Sing... Astair...Sunshine... i love his stuff, but that new album is too mellow, and I really only enjoy Mr. Pitiful and Miss Magnolia

i'm gonna make sure to get his other cd

[boredofcanada]

I started listening to Arular and after a few listens I decided I would pass. I think I even started a thread saying Rihanna was better.

that is an absurd statement.

[rage patton]

Rage, thanks, i'm checkin' out the myspaces now and currently downloading Rodrigo y Gabriela from myspace. I will get mars volta next.

Rodrigo y Gabriela were my #3 act from Coachella last year. I bought their album there, and I love it. I really hope they don't conflict with Battles, like I fear they will.
And The Mars Volta are definately an acquired taste, but I love them. Make sure you either grab Deloused in the Comatorium or Frances The Mute. Their last two albums are...ok, but their first two are nothing short of brilliant.

[faxman75]

Maybe, it's the rare situation where I will take the stage performance over the art. M.I.A. has some desent beats and when the bass vibrates in her tunes it's stellar but overall she just doesn't do it for me.

[rage patton]

Well, I might as well go on record saying I can't stand MIA and having to listen to her in order to get a good spot for Modest Mouse is going to suck.

faxman, I like Kala a lot better than Arular.

And the reason I love Chromeo is because it's so gay and 80s.

[faxman75]

Good good, downloading deloused now as well.

See and that's perfectly acceptable. I tried and after I listened to the album a half dozen times, I was like "umm no more please".

agreed, I tried to watch MIA at vegoose, and left almost immediatlley.

[faxman75]

Saturday looks good! I got time to check out more but here I am listening to the Purple Rain album. This album is so money over 20 years later.

[g0k1ngsg0]

Rodrigo y Gabriela have to be seen inorder to be appreciated. but they are can't miss.

[paulb]

[g0k1ngsg0]

That was one of my favorite moments at coachella last year.

[paulb]

i fuckin love crowd singalongs... Wish i coulda been there.. Im pretty sure though that Bittersweet Symphony will top every song at Coachella this year.

[chiapet]

thats how Wish You Were Here should be...at Lollapalooza it was pretty weaksauce

LOL - yea, I saw them in London and it was totally different... all those English guys didn't know the song.

[paulb]

[idrive1life]

April 25-27th Coachella 2008
May 25-27th Sasquatch
June 24th to July 30th Eurotrip!
August 1st-3rd Lollapalooza Chicago

Holy shit, faxman. I'm so jealous!

[faxman75]

Saying i'm excited is an understatement.

[tidolu14]

I'm getting worried about Beirut because they cancelled their entire summer European tour and I'm afraid the few US dates will be next. Theres a cryptic letter on their website that makes it sound like we might not be hearing from Beirut for awhile... really hope they don't cancel.

[Jay_Fiedler]

Some bands I hadn't heard of but since listening to their stuff I'm really stoked to see:

Saturday:
Throw Me The Statue, David Bazan, Kathleen Edwards

Sunday: The Heavenly States, What Made Milwaukee Famous, The Blakes

Monday: Pela, Thao Nguyen with the Get Down Stay Down, Delta Spirit, Say Hi

The absolute number one band for me though, (and I haven't seen them mentioned on here at all), is Okkervil River.

[bballarl]

Hey look, it is former NFL quarterback Jay Fiedler.

[chiapet]

Whee. Booked my flights tonight. Guess I'm going for sure

[IngenJoolerie]

Volta before Flips......wow with battles and ghostland that same day


volta before flips though.....i must say the volta have upped their game lately and this is just gonna be pure madness, personally i think its genious for them to be before the lips. this gives us both sides of a wierd spectrum of colors that contains alot of drugs....i cant fucking wait.


(first time for the flaming lips for me so that just makes me way too excited.....one festival at a time though i gues...)

10 days woo!

[faxman75]

Whee. Booked my flights tonight. Guess I'm going for sure

Woo hoo!
