I'm moving to Detroit and the prospect of Enon, Girls Against Boys, and Man… Or Astroman? playing together is VERY much worth the drive.

Also, !!! is on this too.

that's a nice lineup, but most of my favorite bands are absent. granted, because they don't exist anymore, but there are some reunions on there.

3RA1N1AC and silkworm (obvious reasons)
polvo
the delta 72
the monorchid
skull kontrol

those were my faves.

Skull Kontrol kicked so much ass.

I never got into Delta 72, though I saw a great gig at the Black Cat with them and this other band that dressed like robots. Not Man or Astroman.

servotron. i was at that show. the delta 72 was definitely a band to appreciate in a live setting more so than on record.

i will probably be going to this. there are only three or four bands i don't care to see, and the rest i'm excited about. talk about reunions worth catching: scratch acid, negative approach, killdozer, man…or astroman, seam, uzeda, GVSB, three mile pilot, pegboy, the didjits?!? then there's the ex, shellac, the new year, black heart procession, the shipping news, calexico, enon…

Yes! Servotron was so cool. Delta 72 wasn't too exciting on record.

As soon as I read the line-up and the ticket price, I absolutely knew that it was nowhere near here. :roll:
