I saw Sleigh Bells for the first time last night and it was fucking amazing. They got Hog Wild for sure

Identity this summer: Kaskade, Chuckie, Steve Aoki, Avicii, Rusko, Datsik, and Nero. Any idea as to who'll be best? Also, Tiesto and Deadmau5 in September and October.

no hate, but how you could put rodrigo y gabriela over sleigh bells is beyond me


i don't even listen to sleigh bells and i stayed for their entire set, loving the whole thing. i left rodrigo y gabriela after like 2 songs, and i actually listen to them. they just didn't even come close to the energy level at sleigh bells

I'm going to see Foster The People live on the 17th. I've seen a couple of live videos on youtube and they look really sick, they're feeling their music. Can't wait

The Dead Weather: I had an eargasm

The Kills

Queens of the stone age

Them Crooked Vultures

Muse

haha yea i know i know.....

I went to flaming lips for a couple songs, and yea the show looked fucking awesome. balloons, rainbows, all kinds of cool stuff. but i don't listen to them, and i never really have.

yeasayer, on the other hand, is one of my favorite bands and i knew all the words to basically every song they played (aside from maybe some new ones, i cant remember).

i definitely understand why it's weird that i passed up flaming lips for yeasayer, but the fact is i know yeasayer really well, i've seen them before (so i knew it would be a good show), so it just made more sense to go to yeasayer.




rodrigo y gabriela vs sleigh bells is different though. i listen to rodrigo y gabriela and i would still say their show didn't even touch the sleigh bells show

Its really hard to say, the enviroment and crowd energy at a show can change everything for your hindsight. Broken social scene stands out in my mind as one of the better live acts ive seen. On the other hand, the raw energy of big dub shows kind of clouds my vision. That, or I and everyone else in the audience was on some kind of odd pharmeseuticals.

over 90% of these responses are ridiculous and shows how gullible the 16 year old mind is to good marketing schemes.

Verse!!!!! I know no one on this site probably knows who they are but watch the video and shows you how close and personal the shows are. It gives me chills every time I see it.
