its too depressing man. i\'ve seen them at summerfest. yawned the shit out of me. i like uppy music.
the three times i have seen them = definitely not depressing. every time i\'ve seen them, different feel to the show.
first time at tanglewood in ma, it was laid back. and just chill. absolutely phenomenal for atmosphere and vibe. it was a beautiful summer evening. music just got inside you. if you were there, and just toked, you would have been relaxed beyond words.
second time, lelacheur baseball field in lowell,ma - it was literally a ruckus rock concert in the middle of a minor league baseball field. completely up. and just energy flowing. even got rained out. one of the most memorable times in my life where the weather played into the music. crowd was stomping on the bleachers during spiders and it started to pour.
third time, last year at bushnell, felt so intimate. they played such a wide variety. a lot of old tunes i had never heard live before. some are very upbeat. just felt like you were hanging out with them though.
i don\'t know. i am blinded cause i love them so damn much. but maybe it was just the show you were at.
