i hear what you guys are saying about them sounding boring via live show download, but seeing them live is a tooootally different experience.

this show was intensely epic.

i\'m gonna say the onus is now on radiohead to outperform these guys. that\'s how good the show was.

right off the bat, they came out rocking. and the lead guy was so thankful and appreciative to play radio city, saying they would not take it for granted and that they wanted to soak up all the energies of past greats who had graced the stage. awesome. they proceeded to play for an hour and a half balls to the wall, then took literally only a 5 minute set break, and then came out and destroyed the place for another hour. people were going crazy. and the energy radiating from the stage was just infectious.

one of the best parts of the show was the lighting rig. it is absolutely incredible. and it is used perfectly. at times you thought you were about to explode with the energy of the light, i swear to god (and i was completely sober, btw). at other times you thought you were on a space ship about to take off or something. it was flat out spectacular. not to be missed. check \'em if you ever get the chance.

you forgot to mention the flying v=pure gold

truth!


here\'s what they played:

Evil Urges
Off The Record
I\'m Amazed
Highly Suspicious
What a Wonderful Man
Touch Me Part 1
Sec Walkin
Golden
Thank You Too
The Way That He Sings
Two Halves
Phone Went West
Aluminum Park
Steam Engine->
Smokin From Shootin->
Touch Me Part 2

Encore:
Bermuda Highway
Librarian
Wordless Chorus
It Beats 4 U
Dondante
The Bear
Lay Low
Run Thru
Anytime
One Big Holiday


highly suspicious is just too good.

Well after reading this thread I checked out what they had on concert.tv. last night. I forced myself to sit through it. I couldn\'t stand one minute of it! Sorry.

Yeah Mark, you already posted once that you don\'t like them.  Don\'t need to hear about it again guy.

the xm broadcast of the bonnaroo set is up.im gonna wait til later and grab it.i recommend others do the same.

mark, i\'ve seen that on demand thing and also thought it sucked.

their newest album sounds much cooler than that from the bits and pieces i\'ve heard.



still not sold, but people i trust are givin them good buzz

I agree, I\'ll keep an open mind, but really, that was so bad it was embarrassing!

peep the absolute cluelessness..
sad really..

Yes you do.

Oh, I thought that was your dementia kicking in.

ya know, i\'m torn about these guys.... i like about half of every song of theirs, but i don\'t like the other half enough that i never have the patience to sit through a whole show or even song. i think mainly its his vocals that i don\'t like.  if they were an instrumental band, then i think i\'d like them better... and i *despise* his falsetto, so it doesn\'t help that it seems like he manages to slip it into most of their tunes....
