Even though it was the least exciting BFD lineup in years, Rick and I were still excited to hear lots of music. AND IT DID NOT EVEN RAIN.

Young the Giant: Our favorite Indian-Persian-British-French-Canadian band! Is it wrong to like a band a little more because they're multicultural? I only knew "My Body," but their radio-friendly single was

I love Sometime Around Midnight. Haven't heard any of their other stuff yet.

Must look up all these bands who I haven't heard of. Aaaaaaaaaaaall of them. Need new music!!! Suddenly incapable of using complete sentences!

Is Foster the Parent different from Foster the People I keep hearing about? If so, what a weird band naming trend.

[spectralbovine]

Oh God, I fucked that up. That's Foster the People.

Foster the Parent was deep though. For as you sheltered me, shall I shelter YOU.

You've been gone for 15 hours.

Good summary!

Nicely done.

My only variations on your scorecard would be:
Neon Trees, straight up A for showmanship and energy
Black Audio, A+' but that's because I know their music and am kinda digging electronica right now
Linkin Park B- for super crappy sound quality, probably not their fault but still detracted heavily from the show.

Have I introduced you to Ladytron yet?

I love Linkin Park, and they're great live! It is probably not cool to love them, but fuck everyone else.
