So since there's 3 acts going on before Explosions, what time do you think they'll start their set?

12ish?

i respect any indie label that does it themselves but im so bored with temp residence's roster its not even funny.

explosions in the sky are a mogwai knockoff...now they built their roster on explosions knockoffs.

hey sam...go whackoff.

I think if there was a level beyond sold out, the Explosions show would be it.

"useless" and "sam" should do the world a favor and go jump off a bridge together

what does 'post-rock' actually mean?

Posted by wes | August 31, 2006 2:00 PM

its okay, you'll realize it in a few years...im just that far ahead of you.

Posted by sam | August 31, 2006 2:29 PM

"post-rock" means "after-rock." They probably roll.

The explosions show rocked despite the clappy spazzes(especially that marching girl front center) stomping along during the friday night lights songs.

the song you are referring to is "your hand in mine", the clapping & stomping has been going on for the past few shows, so get used to it.

and for sam...here's a little something for you:

If Explosions is a knockoff of Mogwai, then the Clash are just a knockoff of the Sex Pistols.
