Lord Jesus, Wayne Coine should be followed around a la the Grateful Dead. I want to be a flamer or a flip or whatever we would be called. 30 people from the audience selected randomly and secretly before the show by Wayne himself to dance around in animal costumes onstage during the entire set. Many huge coloured ballons and happy birthday sung by the entire crowd to five different people in attendance. Everywhere I looked there were religious expressions of shining joy. He made the dorkiest arms-in-the-air concert shit so fucking fun. Showmanship out the ass. - Sat, 21 Jun 2003 7:32am
J-D-L yeah man! the lips are fucking awesome for that... i saw them when they opened and backed up Beck a few months back @ the queen E... soooo good and they did the selection of people from the audience, i didn't get picked tho' :'(

Modest Mouse is pure and unadalturated shite and I resent everyone that I've lived with that played that pap so incessantly that I know the lyrics to many of their "songs". You know not of what you speak. - Wed, 25 Jun 2003 12:53am

true..true..she was so hollywood icky blonde california and the songs from "exile.." that i admit i used to love were only used to try and connect with her indie fans who are going to HATE her when her album written with the matrix comes out. - Thu, 26 Jun 2003 1:14am

Modest Mouse rule whereas the Lips seem to have the need to rip off Usaf Islam whenever they run out of song ideas. talk about sounding the same. - Sat, 28 Jun 2003 12:49pm

I saw Modest Mouse back just a day or two after 9/11 in Vegas and I thought it was a great show. The slideshow they had behind them onstage was bizarre & great. Atlas Strategic were supposed to play but they dropped out of the line-up, I'm guessing terrorism had something to do with that. - Sat, 28 Jun 2003 7:54pm
