anyone see lightning bolt when they were here? afrirampo, the band that opened for htem was pretty awsome. and on the opposite end of the spectrum, angela mccluskey is quite good.

chrisgraham81

yeah i saw them when they came to Baltimore 2 months ago. I had never heard them b4 that nightand was damn impressed when the crowd started moving to the back alley where the show was being played. The cops ended up showing up after about 15 min, but that 15 min was pretty insane. The drummer rocks way hard

chrisgraham81

does any one listen to Spank Rock?

powerjb

Kevin Devine, Ryan Adams (esp. Love is Hell pt. 1)

oh yeah, unwed sailor has been great lately...

and pedro the lion is always good fun.

FixednotBroken

recent boredoms stuff is just mindblowing.

and to stay geographically on point: melt banana. amazing live.

Ken Wind

The Presidents were my first show too, and I still listen to them. I'm gonna have to say that the Unicorns also rock. I saw them on the OSU campus last summer and it was a f****** sweet show.

EnLaCalle

That Boredoms show at the Bowery a few months ago was completely amazing. Especially in the beginning when it was just Eye and those lightning balls. I only wish that I had been high... oh .... and it's not Boredoms anymore, apparently..it's Vooredoms.

yeah, i know...

ImOnCrank

HELL F'in YEAH! Never thought I would see someone mention them. They're at least moderately bike related in my book as the first time I saw them was at Ride the Rockies. Loved them The RtR sound guys sucked hard dong, but they were awesome!

padelsbach

drive like jehu
cinematic orchestra
shudder to think
nearly all morrmusic (esp. lali puna and notwist)

andrew young

Instrumental has been my fave for quite some time, a little dancehall and some dub thrown in for good measure always pleases me. Is anyone here down with the Constellation label out of Canada? Do Make Say Think, A Silver Mt. ZIon, and of course Godspeed! You Black Emperor. Other stuff like Thirty 3, Tortoise, Mogwai (Saw them at 1st Ave two years ago, blew me away) Broken Social Scene as well, will be playing again sometime soon. My list can go on and on, but I will not take up any more space.

Oh, and if anyone here from Mpls interested in starting an instrumental post-rock type outfit PM me, I play drums.
