<p>&nbsp;</p><p>i tried to get tickets for sonic youth&nbsp;@ cbgb and/or radiohead&nbsp;@ the theatre -- shut out at both, my friend offered me a BJM ticket as a consolation prize</p><p>i've always loved the name, i know of the 'dig'/dandy wharol storyline and like BRMC --&nbsp;but i can't say much for the music</p><p>eh, it can't be that bad ...?</p>

[Stankfoot]

<p>I think there are still tickets on sale (go figure). And for you Dig! fans Joel (the tamborine man) will be playing with the band. Don'y miss it!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

[Sheeplovr]

Joel was great on Gilmore Girls<br />

[Sheeplovr]

what everyone can agree on is I bet the crowd smelt bad<br />

<p>&nbsp;</p><p>i'm a bit more sober now, and things just didn't click for me ... it might've been better if i knew any of the songs ... glad to hear a fan enjoyed it</p><p>the guy in the beard, ill fitting jacket&nbsp;and endless tambourine was odd</p><p>the 6'7&quot; dancehall jesus-looking jew was just horrible</p>

<p>What's their sound?&nbsp;&nbsp; Being a musician&nbsp;I know you don't want to get compared to other stuff but just curious what they sound like.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>New versions of Winamp support ogg &quot;out of the box&quot; - otherwise you have to download a plug-in. And sheeplovr is right - you'll probably hate them ......</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><strong />

<p>Really boring show last night. I like the band alot but they had zero personality last night and it took forever between songs. </p>
