I'll be there. First time I'm able to get out to a Ft. Reno show this year - I'm looking forward to it!

I thought it was pretty dull. Ian's guitar broke in the middle of the set, which resulted in about 10 minutes of nothing. The quiet parts were so quiet that they were pretty much inaudible from where I was. I like The Evens, but I thought it was a pretty dull show.

I caught the last 10 minutes or so of DCIC. It sounded like they were tuning up the whole time. I like improvisation, but it just seemed way too random.

I'd have to agree. I had never seen The Evens before, and left with the impression that they were just okay. But maybe I'll give them another shot since it sounds like it might've been an off night.

Really? I actually liked this the most out of all the times I have seen them. I don't know where you were standing, but after his guitar broke we all went right to the stage. Maybe it helped that I was standing in front of Amy, but it was great up front - lots of in-crowd participation and dancing. And I have really been loving the new stuff.

Did anyone else see Ted Nugent?

Indeed it was the Nuge… :)

I had a good time. Nothing to knock my socks off but it was a good show nontheless. You can't really rock out more sitting down with a guitar than Ian was. The dude has got the passion.

It's possible. Mackaye said he was a huge fan of The Nuge's music.

I'm pretty sure I saw the Nuge at Sleater Kinney, actually, so it wouldn't surprise me…
