Can't say I care much for the main stage (The Cure, Mogwai, Rapture) at all. I'm all about the second stage, it's got my 4th favorite band of all time (Muse), one of my current favorites (Cooper Temple) and my bride to be (Melissa Auf Der Maur). It's incredible. I love all three acts and am going to see them all in one day! Could a concert get much better for someone like me? Not unless Metallica, Foo Fighters, The Darkness and System of a Down played back to back. What a great summer for concerts. First I saw the Burning Brides and A Perfect Circle. Then I saw Incubus and now I'm about to see Muse, Cooper Temp and Melissa.

Who else from NY is going to Curiosa on July 31st?

Edit: Oh and Thursday's on the second stage, too. Meh. Emo.

Ticketmaster, brah. 60 bucks a pop. The way I look at it, it's $20 a concert. :D

For those that care, Scarling will be playing shows in California, Arizona and Utah for the festival. They're not coming to Chicago sadly... figures.

Give yourself a pat on the back, Alpha. We're happy for you.

Although seeing New Born live would be quite nice.

Hahaha, like I said, I'm avoiding the 1st stage. I enjoy The Cure and all, but I'm not going to go and watch them perform, because I don't know much of their songs. So watching them would make me feel poserish. I'm just going to stick to the 2nd stage.

*Awaits, "but you are a poser" replies.*

Don't you live near Chicago...? Because Muse had a show at the Metro weeks back that was only $10. Could have saved some money lol.

If Melissa is not wearing a short skirt or something skintight for her performance and Mogwai is playing, i strongly urge you to check Mogwai out instead.

That way you can tell your kids you swam thru an ocean of noise once, and Mogwai was your Poseidon.

*don't know wtf i just typed but let's move along*

Honestly, I'd be more interested in hearing Mogwai than any of these other bands... and I outright love a few of them (The Cure, Muse, Cooper Temple Clause, Scarling mainly).

Muse is a really tight live band. I have their Madiavale 2003 bootleg and they sound amazing - hard to believe there's only three of them.

They're a really good band, some of their riffs are a bit too redundant but their talent kind of makes up for it. I would love to see this band live.

Seeing Melissa over Mogwai is dumb, dumb, dumb.

While I do like Explosions in the Sky, that comment is rather odd... Especially considering groups like Mogwai and Godspeed You Black Emperor! probably influenced them in the first place.

The only band I really want to see is Interpol. And I'd much rather see them in a smaller venue... maybe Irving or KF or Hammerstein.

How much did your ticket cost?


*edit*: 60 bucks? Totally not worth it.

So my friend is off? As based on that comment I have yet to hear Mogwai.
Click to expand...

He's off in that Mogwai came first, and it's an odd phrase to use to compare the two.

I wouldn't call them a poor man's explosions in the sky, but they do play a similar style of music, are likely to be put in the same genre.

I prefer Mogwai myself, but they have a lot more material (that I know of) to use to base an opinion.

Why are so many people caught up on how he looks? lol He still sounds the same and his backing band is good enough, albeit different than usual.

Plus there are several other bands there. I don't think that price is too bad... at least not compared to what I usually see for big name bands around here.

dunno. don't think mogwai and an aging smith are worth 60$ to me. as much as it would fulfill fart's teenage dreams to see the cure live, teenage fart would rather have seen smith ca. disintegration then smith ca. fat

and i figure i'll see mogwai eventually.

You gonna' go, brah? I think cameras will be allowed. It's an open area and it's an event that's going to attract a lot of really diverse people. That and none of the bands playing are assholes (like TOOL and APC). Generally a no camera rule is at the disrection of the performer.

Why? I get to see three of my favorite bands perform in one night. I paid that much to see Incubus, and paid a little less to see A Perfect Circle. $60 is a steal.
