Added some new additions from the concert I went to tonight.
Grandaddy was perfect like always but the rest of the bands were really shoddy. Well Dios was pretty decent but The Fire theft was mediocre at best and I walked out on saves the day. They Were HORRIBLE.

At least I had my hour of grandaddy.

so my ratings:
Dios 7/10
The Fire Theft 5/10
Saves the day 4/10
Grandaddy 10/10

and tommorow up comes the yeah yeah yeahs. :)

[bowieee]

New additions:

Yeah yeah Yeahs again 10/10
Kill me tomorrow 9/10
Entrance 8.5/10

This was a fucking outstanding show. All three bands were really good so if this tour comes to a town near you GO! It was alot of fun. Theres something great about being three feet away from Karen O.
