dreams somtimes come true i guess. finally got to see mono this past weekend - in short: every bit as good as the records. and if you haven't given them a chance this is your final warning. give them a few spins and you may even decide that they out-mogwai mogwai and rub shoulders with godspeed. eluvium opened up and, well, caught me by surprise b/c i hadn't really thought that much of his album, which admittedly isn't the kind of music that you like the instant you hear it. but with a backdrop of a very nice and bit edward gorey-like animation it was well, just very enjoyable.
however, the show made me rethink my position that free shows are bad. now i also think cheap shows are bad too. shows should really be ridiculously expensive. how f**king annoying can people be? why do people go to show if they are too busy talking? and for some reason they always seem to be standing behind me. if not them, it is the guy who insists on singing along with the band - often in some sort of a falsetto. remember the shooting at the dimebag show in december? bet that guy just went nuts just because the people behind him were talking. anyhow, expensive shows might keep the people that aren't really interested in the music away.
