Tracy: I thought she sounded good, if a little soft. She’s kind of a nut job. But she was good, despite any perceived sound issues.

Jenn: She was calm tonight. I’m kinda reviewed out. It was good.

Carlos: I enjoyed it. It was probably my favorite of the bunch regardless of sound issues. Band was really good. Simple.

Duff: They should have upped the volume on her mike a little bit, the vocals were a little quiet. But she sounded really, really pretty. Very funky and bluesy. Odd grimaces on stage and good grief I was worried that crazy vein in her neck was going to burst!!! But I really loved her set, so glad I FINALLY got to see her after two failed attempts in the past. She seemed a little unsure of herself (apologized to the audience incessantly) but I thought it was a pretty great show. Crowd loved it and got super quiet and hush so you could actually hear the vocals…at least until the Yoko Ono soundchecking started interfering a little at the end.

Tracy: They’re cool. I like ’em.

Jenn: Good, but a little too hard[core rap] for me. They have good charisma.

Carlos: Good stage presence. Enjoying it. Good sound. Hadn’t heard them before.

Duff: These guys have the crowd going more than anyone else all day. They’re up up up, sassy and lots of fun! I say yay for Clipse!!

Tracy: I wasn’t impressed. Thought it was like groove music in search of a groove: they just didn’t have any.

Jenn: Ten minutes and I was done. The drummer had a lot of energy and was very oddly interesting but not enough to hold my attention.

Carlos: I liked some of the stuff. It was interesting but maybe a little too…???… for me. A lot of noise. I just couldn’t get into the rhythm sometimes. The Abercrombie and Fitch-looking drummer looked so out of place with everyone else. But he was really into what he was doing and he’s really the reason I ended up staying.

Duff: Hated it. It sucked.

Tracy: I liked them but I was sort of far away. They sounded good. Low key.

[far away, taking a rest]

Duff: Wow, you can hear these guys a LOT better than I expected to (about 8,000 times louder than Grizzly Bear!!).

Jenn: Fun dancity. Best thing I’ve seen thus far.

Duff: A lot of fun, I just wish the sound was better on that stage. Really got a kick out of one silly dude in the audience so loving life and dancing his heart out. Some great samples, one sounded a lot like “Funkytown” to me. Would like to see these guys again at higher volume.

Jenn: Afro beat and jazzy band. Not really my thing.

Tracy: I liked them, I would buy their record although I thought some of their sort of noodily experimental stuff was a little lame.

Jenn: Not really into this while psychedelic jam bandy thing that’s going on. A little bit of that is OK but the entire thing is a little much.

Carlos: My first time hearing them. I was surprised at how much I liked them. I would be curious to see how their music on CD sounds as opposed to live. Not sure I would like it as much.

Duff: If they cut the 10 minutes of electronic distortion out of each song, they would be really pretty and I would like them more. Maybe those parts sound better on the albums than they do live? Liked the country twang to the vocals.

Tracy: OK. Cute lead singer but a little dull.

Jenn: Meh. Rock-y but kindof boring. Even cute boys in cardigans and Scottish accents couldn’t save it.

Carlos: I guess it’s likeable. Sounds like something I’ve heard before.

Duff: Odd that the dude doesn’t lose his accent when he sings, as per the norm. They were OK but nothing special. It all sounded the same.
