Seen them a bunch of times over the years, and can't say I've been psyched about any of the shows since like 1999 or so.<br /><br />One word of warning -- switching between stages at Siren is never an easy endeavor. You're packed like sardines in front of each stage, and movement of any kind is hard.<br /><br />I do recommend getting there early enough to jump on the Cyclone, though.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14084291270828233276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31270091.post-36542818214544313802009-07-15T12:00:50.438-05:002009-07-15T12:00:50.438-05:00The must see bands are Monotonix, Future of the Le...The must see bands are Monotonix, Future of the Left, and Frightened Rabbit. It's definitely worth bouncing between stages to see them. <br /><br />I agree w/ Potsy on Built To Spill. We saw them at the 9:30 Club and it was so-so.Jumbo Slicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08525227134450004928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31270091.post-64739283275542525762009-07-15T11:44:38.473-05:002009-07-15T11:44:38.473-05:00especially if you've never seen Monotonix.especially if you've never seen Monotonix.Potsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17628405727114697845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31270091.post-29417339146112898162009-07-15T11:42:44.865-05:002009-07-15T11:42:44.865-05:00Built to Spill is a yawner.

To me, their music is youthful and inspired, but their onstage performance is quite the opposite. <br /><br />Stay true to your indie rock core, SYC Andrew, and stick with the Stillwell Stage.Potsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17628405727114697845noreply@blogger.com
