JAPANDROIDS. A great band that you should probably go see.

[Salazaro44]

I approve. It will be sloppy drunk sing along set

[sonnyboy11]

Drummer is wearing a Hot Snakes tshirt there in the Wet Hair vid. Works for me.

[SkeletalTactics]

Anything polyvinyl is worth a watch. Ive been with them since forever. I hope they play at 1.00 when its 105 out. We can all get together and scream.

[AnthonyMBeck]

Your friend is smart.

i agree but if noone else is playing ill let my pop punk hair come out

[Dnormandin]

saw them in tempe in Nov one of the best shows i've ever been to.

[Twattycakes]

I love this band, but I am already at peace with the fact that they will be conflicting with something I have a higher priority for. Still, support.

[Fig Neutron]

I missed them in Tempe, so they're my number one priority of the weekend. Sorry other bands.

[Dede' Arneaux]

You will be covered in beer. You will be covered in beer.

Great. We're travelling 8000 miles to get away from that bollocks pish shite .

Cheers for introducing the band

[rhine1217]

as much as I enjoy their music, I wish Brian could just shut the hell up for one second inbetween songs.

Agreed.

[getbetter]

I'll probably see their set since I like their first album .I still feel like their second album is a modern indie Taking Back sunday-esque album with a Gun Club cover in the middle of it.

[rage patton]

Vote to make "The House That Heaven Built" the new entrance music for the Vancouver Canucks.

Seriously. Do it. Now. Don't let any of these other awful songs win. I don't care if you hate the Canucks. Do it for Japandroids.

[Nealocus]

Friday is pretty stacked already...I hope there aren't any major conflicts.

[violetinc]

saw japandroids in NYC in december/november/some shit had a BLAST. . they put on a very fun show and they're really friendly as well.

DEFINITELY GO SEE THEM!!!!!!!
I will be up in the front, sneaking in liquor, wearing a free winona tshirt. keep your eyes peeled bitches!

[thagorillaz]

I generally don't like when others do what I am about to do, but what is Japandroids appeal? They are much beloved by folks I respect, but they sound pretty run of the mill to me. Do comparisons to The Hold Steady + the Replacements + DFA 1979 sound right? I think part of my confusion comes from the abrasive quality of the lead singers voice, which I imagine could be significantly improved in a crowded club or a sweaty festival pit. If I am walking by their set I will stop by.

[thagorillaz]

bumping to call attention to the unnecessary second japandroids thread.

QFT except for that last part.

[Y0UNGBL00D]

probably will catch none or next to none of this set because of the worst conflict ever. fucking thanks, obama.

[Fig Neutron]

Everything is back burner to Japandroids.

[rage patton]

This tent is gonna be ridiculous. Get there early if you want to even be somewhat close.

[JoeCthulhu]

Nothing will conflict with this set.

[nine00]

I was hoping to catch this whole set, but it looks like Metric will eat into the beginning of Japandroids set. I will definitely be there after Metric though. Friday is STACKED!

[rage patton]

Metric are OK live. Japandroids are a total blast. Choose them over Metric.

[stinkbutt]

complains tent will be too packed... tries to convince people to go to tent instead of somewhere else

[TomAz]

Josh can i sit on your shoulders?
