Lord, it looks gorgeous outside. Looks like perfect Ft. Reno weather, but I'm not familiar with the lineup:
CANYON, GARLAND OF HOURS,
THE FATALES
Any thoughts?

Hey, we're not being helpful at all! I know a couple folks mentioned Canyon as a possible opener for Idlewild, so someone must know about them. Alas, I can give no guidance, though I may head out just because it's so nice today.

Oh no, Bags, Michael Bolton was VERY helpful. He reminded me I need to condition tonight. But I'm with you–it's so nice out, I might risk an evening of no-talent ass clowns.

every band has to start somewhere. Fort Reno is a showcase for local talent and is free. What are you going to do, ask for a refund.
I can understand being disparaging after seeing a show, "here is 25 cents go and phone your mum and tell her you will never be a rock star" And I can understand slagging off a band if you paid good money to see them and they were bad.
I dont see the point on ragging on inexperienced local bands playing Fort Reno, that is what its all about. And for what its worth from what I remembr I think canyon are Ok.

In my opinion….
Canyon kind of suck.
They aren't that bad but not worth a walk across the street.
I'll stay home and file my nails and play some good CDs.

I say go. It'll be a beautiful evening and you may end up liking one of the bands.
For a band that allegedly sucks, Canyon sure seems to get a lot of gigs. I'm tempted to see them some time just to see why they suck.

Go for it. Maybe you'll turn into a big Alt-Country/Canyon fan.
And as you say, it is a very nice evening. Much, much closer for you too to take a chance.

Fatales were alright. Walked out during Canyon, pissed on my elementary school with the boys. Paige was there, she left during Canyon too. I thought the slide guitar would be enthralling, but no dice.

In my opinion, the only band that I liked was the Fatales. I'm sorry, but the Garland of Hours or whatever's female singer had the most flat, horrible voice. Sure she could play the piano and the cello - which was cool, but I mean I could have sung better than she did! Canyon didn't interest me as much as I had hoped, but I tried to give them a fair shot. However, I was just let down, bought a cremesicle and went on home.
