Nada Surf roll call April 10, 2008 at 12:51 PM UTC #
Just thought these guys deserve their own thread.

And please answer me this. Why is Death Cab for Cutie, who are comparable but far inferior to Nada Surf, so much more popular?

Wow, Nada Surf with a 930 Club sellout. Unbelievable! I remember when they played at the Sidebar a long time ago. Ozma and Rilo Kiley were opening. When I got there it was sold out. After Ozma was done, everyone left and they let me in to see Nada Surf! Ahh how Let Go changed everything!

I'll be at Nada Surf. I've never seen them before, so I'm looking forward to it.

I'm not in Chicago as planned, and now the show is sold out. I might head down to see if anyone is selling. Or, should I just listen via NPR? Heh.

check to see if that guy in the ticket forum still has his tickets to sell. Looks like there might be a couple of other sellers on craigslist.

I'm stoked for the show :)

I'll be there. Their show at the Black Cat a few years ago was great, hopefully this will be equally good.

That was my initial thought, but it's grown on me.

It'll never be as good as Let Go, but then again few albums (by anybody) will.

Do they do "Popular?" Or are they too cool to do it now? I bet they think they are too cool to do it but they do it first to get it out of the way.
