The way I hear it, BtS is sometimes brilliant live, and sometimes like watching snails cross a kitchen floor.
I've liked a record or two from 'em myself. But I've read too many stories about how the band got up and just prog-alt-noodled their way through the set, playing 20+ minute songs.
I was planning on going. I was excited to go. But I've seen them once before and it was…unspectacular. Not bad, by any means, but kind of dull. Exciting to Spokanites due to a lack of high-caliber live music events. If money were plentiful I'd give it another shot, but I'm putting my eggs in The Decemberists basket instead.

So who knows?
hmmm. Fuck that noise.
ReplyDeleteI am too sick/tired to think of anything clever, so I'll leave it to my betters:
