I forgot that Vas is also a scene-ster who will tell you how he's seen the band multiple times before you ever heard of them for much cheaper than you're paying now and at a much smaller venue! ;D ;D ;D ;D

Not everything I say is bad…but it's just my opinion that I think their live show sucks….and those were $12 - $15 shows.
There are just certain bands that are great/better on record than the live shows. Modest Mouse is the only other band that I can think of right now.

I may. Silent Alarm is very important to me. Wish the old lineup was touring it.

I love Janelle Monae and Of Montreal on record. But the one time i saw them, when they toured together, both were meh. Maybe i just don't like all the theatricality.

Come on dude…I mean that is on you regarding Monae
It’s like saying I went to see Bowie but didn’t like the outfits or I went to see the Ramones but didn’t appreciate all the short 2 minute songs or I went to see the Stones but didn’t like all the Jagger calisthenics
BTW Monae has the coolest fan base

Too much of the music was prerecorded. Total turn off for me.

I've seen of Montreal half a dozen times and had a blast at every single show. That was years ago though. The shtick may wear thin on me these days.

Why is there not, a seating chart on the anthem website?

Just bit the bullet and bought Who tix. I love The Who and every time I see them lately, I figure it could be my last. That show will however be bookshelves by Idles in Baltimore and Shame at Black Cat. I'm sure there will be a dramatic difference in the age demographics for those shows.
