08/05 Digitalism DJ Set at Voyeur

[Californicator]

Anybody going to Broken Bells and The Morning Benders at Humphrey's on Tuesday 5/18? Also, can someone tell me about Humphrey's? How's the sound and seating arrangement? Its one of the only venues I've never been to in San Diego. I think its because they usually have stuff old people would enjoy, like Crosby Stills and Nash, Diana Ross, etc.

I guess that means I'm getting old.

[GaragePoet]

there's no reason young people shouldn't be into old music... i think well over half the music in my own collection was recorded before i was born

[Californicator]

Oh, and I saw your band with Chali 2na at "Canes". You guys rock. And Chali 2na killed, didn't he?

I would have said what up, but didn't see where your band went after the set.

[GaragePoet]

nice, i like that... that was my mother's day weekend t-shirt

[Devin the Dude]

I will be at the Broken Bells show Tuesday @ Humphrey's with two friends. I have never been.

The seating arrangements look terrible. I have a feeling I will not be satisfied with our spots, and likely will steal someone else's.

[Californicator]

Sage Francis with a live band plus Free Moral Agents 6/7 @ The Belly Up.

[Bwilliamson30]

anyone going to caribou thursday?

[unknown]

fuck. ^ it's sold out. i wish i could keep up with all the shows out there but sometimes life gets way too busy grrrrr

[Devin the Dude]

For the record, Broken Bells last night was the worst show I've ever been to in my life. We got there late, you know, not expecting the headlining act to play all of 45 minutes. We only caught 3 of apparently 11 songs. Seating was terrible, as expected. The band didn't move an inch the whole show. This is the last time I give James Mercer my money. Fuck James. Fuck The Shins. Fuck Dangermouse. Fuck Broken Bells. FUCK HUMPHREY'S FOR KICKING OUT A FEW HUNDRED DRUNK PEOPLE AT 10PM.

FUCK!

[Devin the Dude]

Like, really, I have never been so disappointed by anything in my life. $47 for THAT!!?? WHAT THE FUCK!!!???

[GrossMagic]

Why Humphrey's? What a poor choice of venue. Bummer dude....

[Devin the Dude]

Yeah, they really should have played The Casbah. You know, a place that doesn't have a fucking senior citizen's curfew.

[SDsoldier7]

Fuck dangermouse?


Damn you. He is a great producer.

[unknown]

I remember wanting to get a ticket for the Rodrigo Y Gabriela show and looking at the seating, thinking it looked horrible. No way did I want to pay $50 to sit in what looks like rows of chairs behind rows of chairs - no real incline or anything. Is that how it was?

[PJandBompton]

my show with Dom Kennedy, TiRon, G.o.D. Jewels and Goldsmith tonight at U-31. $5. gonna be siiick.

If you even REMOTELY like hip-hop this is a big show.

Dom and TiRon are from LA, I flew Jewels out from Chi-Town for his first CA show, and Goldsmith is my artist from SD...

We got there late, you know, not expecting the headlining act to play all of 45 minutes. We only caught 3 of apparently 11 songs.

wow, that's not bad for a band w/ one album that only has 10 tracks on it... what else did you expect them to play?

[PJandBompton]

tonight at U-31 was so beyond my expectations. things are definitely turning around music wise in SD...Dom fucking destroyed it. we're gonna work on an all ages show early summer, definitely bringing him back down again soon.

[GaragePoet]

sorry we couldn't make it to U-31 last night, but check out Vokab Kompany's write-up in Happy Hour Magazine, also playing the 3-Year Anniversary bash at the Fleetwood in downtown SD tonight, so come check it out...

we'll also see ya at Lightning in a Bottle next weekend...

[sames44]

anyone else going to The National on Sunday?

[Devin the Dude]

wow, that's not bad for a band w/ one album that only has 10 tracks on it... what else did you expect them to play?

I expected to see the whole show. I expected a venue that serves alcohol to be open past 10.

Hey San Diego, I'm looking forward to visiting you August 11th, 2010 to see My Morning Jacket at SDSU Open Air Theatre with doors opening at 6:30, show 7:30 with opening act of Avi Buffalo. Tickets are $35.00, $25.00.

[Pat24]

anyone else going to The National on Sunday?

I am. Looking forward to it!

[Californicator]

I had a good time at Broken Bells. 7th row from stage, got there between acts, in time to get about 4 drinks. I wasn't sure if I was in the right seats, but nobody said anything.

And, Humphrey's has the best selection of beer, liquor and wine I've ever seen at a music venue, with decent prices. My Stone IPAs were $5, and you can get a mai tai for $10 and keep the glass.

I'd post some vids, but youtube isn't being cooperative with my uploads for some reason.
