Modest Mouse, Bjork - NO DC DATES??

Looks as if DC is going to take it up the arse on these…

damn, but her show at NASA is going to be insane!

Modest Mouse??? … talk to me?

"damn, but her show at NASA is going to be insane!"


She's only doing 2 songs at the NASA show, it's a benefit and she won't be with full band, so don't feel bad about missing it, now the Sugarcubes reunion show if you missed it should trouble you for eternity it was massive.

Sometimes you have to go to the mountain, and when the mountain is Bjork (or Daft Punk, or Morrissey for that matter) it should be a priority

I am normally of the attitude that if I don't like a band, then I try to just shut up, but I fucking hate Bjork so much that I can't help it. I just can't fathom why ANYONE would travel to see her. The only good thing about Bjork is watching her beat the crap out of that reporter in Bangkok. Fucking weirdo.

I also do not like Bjork at all. I've bought 3 different albums of hers after rave recommendations from many, and hate them all.

modest mouse are rumored at vfest in september

Hate is a strong word. What did Bjork do to you? She´s gazillion times more innovative than {insert your fave band here}

:)

Oh right. Next you'll tell me that the soundtrack to Drawing Restraint 9 was brilliant too. Trust me, I've tried and tried…I know it's a matter of taste. But that being said, I'll take Gus Gus any day over weird-ass Bjork.

Having been a former Bjork hater, I can sympathize Bearman. However, I saw the light after hearing Homogenic. Then I had a chance to see here play at Radio City Music Hall with an orchestra. Excellent show.

This is all NKOTB's fault.

are they going to launch her into space after the show? thats where shes from isnt it?

No…that's the one disc that has somehow eluded me. I've heard Post (eh…OK), Telegraph, and a couple of others including the dreadful one she did with Matthew Barney.

You hate Bjork, her band, what exactly is this about? I'll admit there are artists I don't like, but hate someone I don't even know? I'm a little lost. What would make more sense and perhaps you were trying to be diplomatic is that you hate an artist's fans because they're so fucking annoying in their cheerleading for any particular artist you don't have an affinity for. If that's the case, it's still slightly silly but definitely makes a little more sense.

But you're shit out of luck on that front here, because she's fucking amazing especially live, if you don't get it I don't mind at all I'd rather keep the bandwagon fairly empty and I won't even take a shot at what you might find similiarly amazing from your perspective though there's even money it wouldn't make my top 10 either.

Yeah that Modest Mouse tour is some bullshit not coming here.

I too am not into Bjork after repeated attempts. I did however thoroughly enjoy The Sugarcubes - Life's too good. Go figure.

I was honestly looking forward to a Modest Mouse show at DAR.

Thanks for your honesty.

If I were a big name act I would skip over DC too. The crowds at DC shows are completely dead. Take a look around the 9:30 club during your next show and you would think by the look of everyone that the music hasnt even started yet.
