I like Girls

It's probably due to the hipster-ass steelo that is Uptown summers. I seriously heard ALBUM playing off 3 different porches within a block from my house in ONE DAY.

I wish I didn't have such a cardigan problem. I wouldn't be plagued with fans of Best Coast, Deerhunter, etc.

Sonic youth were pretty poor considering I payed $80 for a festival ticket for them, they weren't headlining, and the last time I saw them live they rocked.

Dan Deacon was terrible. Though they opened for Lightning bolt which was the best act I saw all year. So it's hard to evaluate that gig as a whole

I've seen some rubbish this year, but nothing big enough for anyone else to have heard of it. I will say that Wednesdays are a terrible night for jazz, it seems.

I'm going to stand up for Deerhunter. I saw them live in Leeds and it was sincerely amongst my favourite gigs of the year. Yeah, Bradford is a bit of cock (OR COX, AM I RIGHT GUYS?!) on stage, but I thought it was just flat out one of the tightest most rocking gigs I've been to in ages. I was probably coming at it from a pretty different angle in terms of being a massive fan, knowing pretty every song they played really well, and being with two friends who are the same...

Raekwon
It wasn't really his fault though.. the sound at the venue was terrible. The vocal setup was not working, all you could hear was the instrumental and then grumbling from the stage.
Raekwon seemed very upset with the show and frequently complained about the sound guys and his treatment by the venue.

Dinosaur Jr. were also dissapointing.

Hadouken ! in Dour festival was fucking atrocious. I still don't know why I listened to my friend who told me we should go and see them - fortunately no band i wished to see was playing at the same time so i did not miss anything for this shit. They tried to do a wall of death but no one followed, so I guess I was not the only bored. Awful shit.
Other than that, some local hip hop / rock unit opening for Foreign Beggars, and perhaps dd/mm/yyyy opening for Beak>.

Are you sure you're talking about Aa ? I think I made a thread about them a whiiiiiiiile ago and I thought you loved them... Though I don't know what they've been up to lately, so perhaps they've gotten awful. gAame was a pretty fine record.

I had an absolute blast at Dan Deacon. It could have been the molly, though.

thats funny there is a night in vancouver called fake jazz wednesdays, its a mixed bag and i have seen some truly amazing stuff but also some utter guff and like you its all bands that are so small its not worth mentioning.

also very glad i didnt go see sonic youth when i had the chance too this year. $90 for a festival ticket, no one else on the bill worth seeing and they played a 40 minute set.

Was it Au? Or.. it was some A band. It was just piano and drums. The entire thing was a climax. It reminded me of coldplay. It was really dull, whoever it was.

Also, I saw dan Deacon a few years ago and it was pretty fun.

Of all the new bans doing that kinda stuff, i reccomend YOLZ IN THE SKY... http://www.mediafire.com/?jk1zenmdk19 ... imagine a melt banana but way more insane, imagine if melt banana's OTHER members were just as insane as the guitarist.. the drummer in this band is unbelievable.. UN fucking BELIEVABLE... and they have some weird off time organ thing going on on some songs. amazing band.

glad to see some deer hunter hatred, there are 3 or 4 people on this board that worship them, but they're honestly one of the most boring bands I've ever heard, live or on record.

Thanks for this CD. I've been trying to track it down. I saw YOLZ live at a Japanese festival and really enjoyed their set. It was about 25 minutes and the whole thing felt like one song. Very PIL inspired (at least live). The CD couldn't be more different than what I had seen from them on youtube and in person. The CD is much much better! I'd have to catch a full set of theirs to judge them properly, though. God, the CD totally rules! Can't stop listening to it!

Au made me leave after 5 minutes of their semi-intellectual coldplay ripoff, got to see costes which I'm still kinda glad on.

I personally suffered twice through snow patrol, 30 seconds to mars and razorlight at festivals waiting for band(deftones and the stooges). I need to go to a asylum for doing that. Same is said for aiden(where I was dragged along to).

OvO ranks up pretty high as does Rolo Tommasi the third and fourth time.

But the most bland concert I ever saw was Woman earlier this year, their records are already mediocre but live it's just making me want to get some sleep....

Einstuerzende Neubauten @ The Forum
Seefeel @ the ICA

Easily the two most jaded, lacklustre performances I've seen this year.

I imagine you saw Neubauten in their prime though? I wouldn't really want to see them now, but they're definitely someone I'd take a trip in a time machine for.
