Elixir Sue Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I want to see Modest Mouse, and I want to see Band of Horses...but not in a place like this: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chendizzle Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 After I saw MM in May I really loved it, but doubted I'd ever see them again due to the crowd's suckage and their venue choices (i was able to see them at a general admission place but I doubt they will play many more of those). But now, I have tickets to see them with Band of Horses, Neko Case and Wolf Parade at this Download Festival thingy, which is pretty cool. LAL is criminally underrated, but when they opened for MM I didn't hear as many songs from Laughter's Fifth as I would have liked. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't hear any Float On or Dashboard requests at the show I saw, but when they broke into the first chords of Trailer Trash and I went nuts, the kids next to me asked what song it was.

BoH made my day when they covered David Allen Coe's "You Never Even Called Me By My Name." All of the kids at the Metro were scratching their heads, but I loved it.

brianjeremy Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 BoH made my day when they covered David Allen Coe's "You Never Even Called Me By My Name." All of the kids at the Metro were scratching their heads, but I loved it. They did that in Asheville a few months back too. Apparently, the song has been apart of their live show for a while because he said that they also played it a year before in Asheville at another venue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
