Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley
Overheard a little of this. It served as a nice musical palate cleanser. Played a couple of his dad's songs. I did enjoy the dude whose only purpose was to waive the Jamaican flag. I realized that it would be a good gig to be a Marley brother. You're pretty much guaranteed a spot in someone's band.

Matisyahu
Remember this guy? Me neither. Redifining the term "flash in the pan." However, it was pretty good despite the fact that every song sounds fairly similar. Great hippie dancing everywhere.

The New Pornographers
As good as their newest album is, their live show is better. They were having some difficulties with their monitors to the extent that Neko Case sang a little diddy, "I'd give a blowjob for some more vocals in my monitor," in the key of A minor. Sound guy must've been gay. They opened with "Twin Cinema." I was happy. They proceeded to play every song I wanted to hear except for "The Jessica Number".

The Flaming Lips
From my experiences, if you've seen one show, you've seen them all. And that is a fucking great thing. I'm pretty sure he would be a great hang out guy. I'm not sure how you can't have fun at this show. Confetti, dancing Santas and female aliens. And seven foot tall, pot smoking Canadians my parents' age. That's old.

G. Love & Special Sauce
Caught a few songs. Reminded me of high school. Which wasn't so bad.

BoDeans
More rocking than I expected. Good for them. I'll definitely see them again in a smaller venue.

MUSE
For a bunch of guys trying not to sound like Radiohead, they sound an awful lot like...well, um, Radiohead. Maybe they should rename themselves the Paplo Honeys or the A Kids. That being said, they put on a hell of a show. Loud. Smoky. Pretty lights.
