| Aids' Best Live Acts Of 2010
Well, I didn't get this done as soon as I had planned to, but better
late than never. 2010 was a great year for concerts and 2011 is
looking up as well. Here's 2010, live. | 30 | | Kim Churchill With Sword & Shield
--August 15 @ The Big Time Out Music Festival, Cumberland BC--
I don?t know what this guy?s deal is, I?m pretty sure he?s Australian.
Anyway, he plays really good instrumental-based folk similar to Xavier
Rudd. He plays about a dozen instruments as well. | 29 | | K'naan Troubadour
--August 15 @ The Big Time Out Music Festival, Cumberland BC--
?When I get olda, I will be stronga, blah blah blah blah blah, just like a
waving flag? (I?m actually too lazy to google the lyrics). | 28 | | Animals As Leaders Animals As Leaders
--April 9 @ The Rickshaw Theatre, Vancouver BC--
Instrumental metal act Animals As Leaders opened for The Dillinger Escape
Plan and did a good job of holding my interest. The one guitar player is
absolutely insane; it?s pretty much just his solo band. | 27 | | Cancer Bats Hail Destroyer
--March 3 @ Save-On Foods Memorial Centre, Victoria BC--
I only caught a few songs from these guys but they sounded pretty good. | 26 | | OK Go OK Go
--May 28 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre, WA--
OK Go isn?t my favourite band, but they had a nice midday slot on the main
stage on the first day of Sasquatch 2010, and I was just feeling the good
times. The only song I recognized was the infamous ?Here It Goes Again?
but I boogied hard. That?s right, boogied. Here?s a clip of the performance,
sans treadmills [A] http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?
v=760699006141[/A] | 25 | | Pavement Slanted and Enchanted
--May 29 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre, WA--
This was a great show. However, it was a bit of a disappointment,
especially considering this was Day 2?s ?headliner.? Pavement?s reputation
is legendary. I?ve never enjoyed them as much as one would expect, but I
definitely appreciate what they did for indie music and respect them as a
band. Their set just left me a little bit cold. I mean, following Massive
Attack isn?t exactly easy?. (more on that later). | 24 | | Tegan and Sara Sainthood
--May 29 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre, WA--
Vancouver Island?s hometown heroes, and everyone?s favourite lesbian
sisters, Tegan and Sara played a mid-afternoon set on the second day of
Sasquatch 2010. I won?t go into detail, but Day 2 was definitely the day
that I was the most messed up. Honestly, I don?t remember much of their
set, but I do know that I was right up close and that?s always a bonus. Oh.
I remember dancing. Lots and lots of dancing. | 23 | | Against Me! Reinventing Axl Rose
--March 3 @ Save-On Foods Memorial Centre, Victoria BC--
Against Me! are a band I?ve never really gotten into. I?ve heard Reinventing
Axl Rose, and I enjoy it, but it?s not an album I consistently listen to. But
whether you are a diehard fan, or a casual listener (like myself), it?s foolish
to deny that the band rips live. | 22 | | Minus The Bear Planet Of Ice
--June 25 @ Sugar Nightclub, Victoria BC--
2010 wasn?t a great year for Minus The Bear. Omni was a supremely
disappointing follow up to one of the best albums of the last decade. I
elected to not see them at Sasquatch in favour of Mumford and Suns, and
didn?t regret the decision at all. I did get to see them play in a bar in
Victoria about a month later though, and it was a great show. But it would
have been a fantastic show if they just forgot every song from Omni (My
Time is kind of fun actually, they can keep that I guess), and played Planet
of Ice front to back. [A] http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?

picked to film....) | 21 | | Kid CuDi Man On The Moon: The End Of Day
--May 29 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre, WA--
Again, Day 2: Booze. Drugs. Fucked. + Hip-hop = excellent awesome
party time. Kid CuDi kind of blows in my opinion, but this show was waaaay
too much fun. | 20 | | Billy Talent Billy Talent II
--March 3 @ Save-On Foods Memorial Centre, Victoria BC--
I went to this concert for Alexisonfire, but Billy Talent, the official headliners,
put on a super good show. Their set was tilted more towards their third
album than I would have liked, but crowd favourites like ?Devil In A Midnight
Mass? and ?Red Flag? from their second (and best) album were good
enough for me. All of Canada was still high from the Vancouver Olympics at
this point, and Ben Kowalewicz pulled on a Team Canada t-shirt for the last
few songs. Number 87 because Sidney Crosby scored the overtime gold
medal winner that officially set the record for most golds by any host nation
in a winter games ever. Canada RULES. Also of note: (late in the show,
Ben to the audience) ?You guys are great, I love Victoria, my grandparents
are here, right over there (pointing) and I?m fucking stoked they could join
us. We?re all just having a great fucking time and I like how they can just
come watch us have a great fucking time. Love you Grandma!!!?

--March 3 @ Save-On Foods Memorial Centre, Victoria BC--
The best of the three (and a half, sorry Cancer Bats) shows of the night. I
was right up close for their set, like I always am. They kicked ass, but more
on them later.[A] http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?
fbid=679285115231&set=a.679282375721.2327969.21011192[/A] | 18 | | Band of Horses Infinite Arms
--May 30 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre, WA--
Day 3 of Sasquatch had easily the weakest lineup, so we spent most of the
day drinking and working our way up in the main audience section to be
right up front for Ween (my friend?s favourite band). Band of Horses are
pretty average in my eyes, but their songs were made to be played
outdoors on a hot sunny day. Here?s a clip of Ode to LRC [A]
http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=760706331461[/A] | 17 | | MGMT Oracular Spectacular
--May 30 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre, WA--
MGMT played right after Band of Horses, and everything I said about them
applies to MGMT as well. The ?hits,? if you will, such as Electric Feel, Kids,
Time to Pretend (basically anything that isn?t from Congratulations) were all
so much fun to dance and sing along to. We (the crowd) were louder
during The Youth than during probably any other song of the entire festival.
The best part? Easy, the drummer?s pedo-stache.

http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=760708921271[/A] | 16 | | The Middle East The Recordings of the Middle East
--May 28 @ The Yeti Stage, WA--
The lineup for Day 1 was pretty stacked. The National, Vampire Weekend,
Broken Social Scene, My Morning Jacket, Mumford and Sons, etc. etc. etc.
We needed some downtime. The Middle East weren?t a band I had really
heard, but we chilled out on the grass near the stage and listened to their
set, and it was perfect. I got some food, some shade, some breezy
summer music, and I was ready for the rest of the day. | 15 | | Vampire Weekend Contra
--May 28 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre, WA--
Vampire Weekend are kind of a love/hate sort of band. Some of you may
be all ?omg way 2 hi? but their set was magical. They lucked into the time
slot that coincided with the sunset. It was Day 1, I had never been their
before, and The Gorge Amphitheatre has one of the most gorgeous views I
have ever seen. Songs from their second album such as ?Horchata? and
?California English? are forever linked with images of the gorgeous scenery
around me. Here?s a picture, but it hardly does justice. [A]

665&id=21011192[/A] | 14 | | Ween Chocolate and Cheese
--May 30 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre, WA--
Oh Ween, what to even say about them. This was the closing act for
Sasquatch 2010, and my friends and I were right up front, just trippin balls.
Dean and Gene Ween (lulz) pumped out tracks from across their prolific
discography, my personal favourite being Spinal Meningitis (Got Me Down).
They?re funny as hell, but far from a novelty act. Their songs are technical
and, at times, virtuosic. Ween had me gazing in amazement at their chops
almost as often as they had me laughing hysterically. [A]

--May 28 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre, WA--
I saw Broken Social Scene twice last summer, the other time was at a small
music festival in Cumberland (where?) on Vancouver Island. Here?s them
from that show playing Cause=Time [A]
http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=760668292691[/A].
At Sasquatch 2010 though, they mesmerized the crowd. This band is the
perfect soundtrack to a carefree summer day, exhibit A [A]
http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=760704550031[/A] I rest my
case. | 12 | | Dirty Projectors Bitte Orca
--May 29 @ The Bigfoot Stage, WA--
I wasn?t a fan of this band until a very sexy girl convinced me to go see
them play. At first, I was only going to try to reel in this gorgeous, wasted
hipster chick (it?s ok, I was wasted too), but about three songs in, I was
pushing her ugly ass to the ground so I could get closer to Dirty Projectors
and their angelic female vocalists. I didn?t know it was possible to have as
many boners as I had during ?Stillness Is The Move.? | 11 | | Deadmau5 For Lack of a Better Name

UHN TSS UHN TSS UHN TSS UHN TSS UHN TSS UHN TSS UHN TSS UHN TSS
I clearly don?t know much about house/IDM/whateverthefuckthisis, but this
was an awesome show. His stage set-up looks like a giant Rubik?s cube
and he wears a white LED mouse head which has trippy faces and other
weird stuff going on all the time. [A] http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?

] | 10 | | Massive Attack Mezzanine
--May 29 @ The Bigfoot Stage, WA--
When I saw the full lineup for Sasquatch 2010, this was my biggest
?FUUUUUUUUCK YESSSSSSSSSS? moment, and for good reason. Massive
Attack are legendary, and their show numbed my body. I stood, transfixed
for nearly an hour as they played. I literally don?t know where to begin
describing this experience, so I won?t. | 9 | | Muse Origin of Symmetry
--April 1 @ The Pacific Coliseum, Vancouver BC--
Silversun Pickups opened and, stupid me, I missed them because I was at a
bar drinking pitchers of beer. On one hand, it sucks that I missed Silversun
Pickups, as they?re a much better studio band than Muse. On the other
hand, it was awesome that I was drunk for Muse because they played
waaaaay too much from The Resistance. Muse rules live, what more can
really be said? They were so pretentious, and their stage design was
super over the top, but who cares, the show was a blast. [A]

] | 8 | | Mumford & Sons Sigh No More
--May 28 @ The Bigfoot Stage, WA--
This was the first show I saw at Sasquatch 2010 and it was phenomenal.
This band gets some hate around here, but I don?t agree with it at all. Sigh
No More was a phenomenal debut, and the band played the songs
perfectly live. The energy level was off the charts, from the furiously picked
banjo lines to the frantically strummed acoustic guitars. The band doesn?t
have a drummer, but instead, they took turns on either a full kit or pieces of
one. The best part wasn?t, surprisingly, the feeling I got when belting out
?and IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII will change my ways, and IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII?ll find strength in
pain, and know my name as it?s called again!!!? but the last ten minutes,
when members from The Middle East joined the stage one by one and
started picking up instruments. By the end, there were more than a dozen
musicians clustered together on a crowded stage, all strumming a guitar or
fucking the shit out of a drum or cymbal. | 7 | | La Dispute Somewhere At The Bottom Of The River...
--November 26 @ Club 919, Victoria BC--
The show started at 6:30 for some stupid reason. Also, La Dispute played
BEFORE Norma Jean. It makes me barf. Anyway, I missed two songs, and
the set was really short. Still, La Dispute managed to captivate me for
twenty short minutes as they filled the room with catchy hardcore riffs and
soaring emotional screams. There were less than ten of us at the show
who cared who these guys were, but we belted out every word, and you
could tell that the band were genuinely grateful for our support. I broke up
with my girlfriend of 4 years this past year, and she moved to Ireland the
day of this show. This show felt like a turning point in my life, and La
Dispute was the perfect soundtrack. ?Up m?lady, pack your things. This
place is not your home, nor was it ever. Sever every tie; tonight we ride,
tonight we RIDE!!!? | 6 | | Japandroids Post-Nothing
--May 30 @ The Yeti Stage, WA--
Japandroids were in the middle of one of the most hectic touring schedules
I?ve ever seen, and they had spent the last 72 hours travelling in a mini-
van. But they weren?t about to give any excuses: Japandroids were fucking
AWESOME. I talked to both members after the show, and they were both
such down-to-earth guys. They were so grateful that I had bought a shirt,
and took my compliments to heart. These two are the vision of who I want
to be as a musician. Here?s a picture of wasted ol? me with Kevin (I think)
the guitarist. Pit stains, FTW [A] http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?

] | 5 | | Cymbals Eat Guitars Why There Are Mountains
--May 29 @ The Bigfoot Stage, WA--
One word: sweaty. Ok a couple more words: this band rules and when they
play live, they play like it?s their last day on Earth. | 4 | | The Dillinger Escape Plan Option Paralysis
--April 9 @ The Rickshaw Theatre, Vancouver BC--
I?m sure you?ve heard, but these guys are absolutely INSANE live. When
they take the stage, they demand your attention. They have a stage
presence like no other band I?ve ever seen. For most of the show, guitarist
Ben something was climbing all over the stacks of amps, putting himself in
dangerous situations. For thirty awesome seconds, my section of the
crowd got to support him at he stood on our hands playing disgustingly
accurate riffs. The pit was full of dumbass meatheads (they were probably
there for Darkest Hour) but I got some good thrashing in. Absolutely
phenomenal show.[A] http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?

] | 3 | | The National High Violet
--May 28 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre, WA--
One of the standouts of Sasquatch 2010 were Brooklyn-based indie rockers
The National. I met three of them (the twin guitarist and the bass player)
and had them sign my recently purchased edition of High Violet right before
the show. I was with two of my friends for their set, and we had a nice
relaxing spot on the top section of the bowl, the best area for soaking in
the view. When the drums for Bloodbuzz Ohio kicked in, I excused myself
to watch the performance by myself. I had goosebumps the whole time,
easily the live musical moment of 2010. [A]

[/A] | 2 | | My Morning Jacket Z
--May 28 @ The Gorge Amphitheatre, WA--
Ladies and gentlemen, the surprising winner of Sasquatch 2010, My
Morning Jacket. Why surprising? Look at the other contenders. The
National, Massive Attack, Ween, Deadmau5, Broken Social Scene, Mumford
and Sons, Japandroids, Cymbals Eat Guitars, hell I would have even taken
Vampire Weekend over My Morning Jacket at the beginning of the festival.
Another reason that it?s surprising is that MMJ?s latest effort, Evil Urges,
was pretty average, nothing at all comparable to their magnum opus, Z.
Colour me shocked, but My Morning Jacket stole Day 1 from The National
almost as easily as security ?stole? my friend?s wine she was trying to
sneak in. Every song was an extended jam led by powerful drums and a
crushing guitar tone, so the mediocrity of Evil Urges was mainly lost
between 7-minute killer guitar solos. Being the last act on the main stage,
they played an extended encore filled with songs from Z, and it was just
awe-inspiring. | 1 | | Alexisonfire Watch Out!
--November 26 @ Club 919, Victoria BC--
The night of this show, Victoria had a curfew for some ridiculous reason. So
Alexisonfire had to stop playing at 10; they were not even allowed an
encore (much to the chagrin of the sweaty shirtless Norma Jean fans). I?ve
also already seen AOF several times before this, and their last album was
their weakest in my eyes. But for some reason, maybe all the stars aligned
that night in Victoria, because Alexisonfire took the limited time they were
given and proceeded to crush the face of every pathetic mortal in the room.
George, who has never given a bad performance in his life, was seething
with fury as his screams echoed off the back walls of the crowded venue.
The crowd hung on his every scream, on Dallas? every note, and on
Ratbeard?s every whack of the skins. They played songs from across their
catalogue (except for their self-titled debut, which is understandable, but
still disappointing), but whether it was from Watch Out! or their new EP,
Dog?s Blood (which I got on limited edition green vinyl, 700 copies), there
was one constant: the energy was through the roof. I had the best crowd
surf of my life during ?This Could Be Anywhere In The World? and George
helped me on stage. I leaned in so he could hear me, yelled ?you guys
fucking destroy!!!? and dove backwards into the audience as the security
guard tried to prevent me from jumping so he could remove me from the
venue. My knees were so weak after the set was done, I could hardly
stand. This was a very surprising show of the year considering what a
phenomenal time I had at Sasquatch, but Alexisonfire takes top honours in
2010, easily. | |

03.08.11 | apparently "apostrophe" means "question mark", fack

03.08.11 | 27 actually put on a great show. | ButcheredChildren
03.08.11 | fuck vancouver, you never hear anything about the western end of Canada in Ontario | Aids
03.08.11 | ??? I don't get it, are you saying fuck Vancouver because we get good shows? because Ontario gets better shows. | Athom
03.08.11 | Saying that La Dispute puts on a better show than Against Me! is an outright lie. | Ire
03.08.11 | ew la dispute | ButcheredChildren
03.08.11 | No I'm saying fuck vancouver in general because it is completely abscent in the average Ontarians' mind considering we never here anything from that area over here. Also yea we do get better shows lol got to love Toronto, but Montreal gets just as amazing shows as us. | SHAKEandBAKE
03.08.11 | I'm genuinely jealous haha, you saw so many amazing bands this year. Completely agree with you about Alexisonfire, Dallas is phenomenal live. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this by the way. | gabethepiratesquid
03.08.11 | You lucky shit. | acorncheese
03.08.11 | That's a ton of shows. Best show I went to last year was Good Old War. Then RX Bandits. | Aids
03.08.11 | "Saying that La Dispute puts on a better show than Against Me! is an outright lie."

03.08.11 | 13 is awesome live. saw em twice last year in 3 days lol | DaveyBoy
03.08.11 | Great write-up & an interesting read throughout Aids. Well done. Deserves to be featured, so *click* | Aids
03.08.11 | what up, thanks a ton Davey.
@Weeping - yah I almost saw them three times last year, I saved my money and only saw them twice though haha
@ defeater - Godspeed will be ...just....ahh. GY!BE > this list. I'm also jealous you get to see Fair To Midland, I hope they come to BC | Aids
03.08.11 | @ Davey - I love your year end write ups, they partially inspired this. I probable would have done it anyway, but your list convinced me to post it on sputnik. | DaveyBoy
03.08.11 | Thanks Aids. It's a good keepsake (even when late) and I'm certain readers will find this interesting & helpful. And yeah, the apostrophes are a pain in the backside. I try to keep them to a minimum on lists. If you go back & edit them, they get fixed, but it may takea while for this list! | Aids

03.08.11 | "They were so pretentious." Really? Their concert was pretentious? | FromDaHood
03.08.11 | AOF is one of the best shows I've seen but my damn apathetic friends kind of ruined them for me. Billy Talent are also pretty awesome | Boyaawitcheese
03.08.11 | Saw Streetlight Manifesto a few weeks ago, definitely a top 5 show. So much energy there it blew my mind. | Aids
03.08.11 | @remer - yes, their concert was insanely pretentious. the stage was out of control.
@eno - no, I poor, thanks to all these concerts
@fromdahood - my friends are lame at AOF shows too, I just ditch them and go fuck up the pit
| Remer17
03.08.11 | How is that pretentious? They have a big budget, so they spend it on an entertaining show. I know everyone here loves using that word, but it doesn't always apply. | Aids
03.08.11 | It's pretentious when each band member has their own 40 sq. ft (approx) stage rise out from the main stage while epic, bombastic opera is played in the background like it's fucking Iron Chef. I wouldn't mind if it was a once in a while thing, but they do it at every show they ever play. They do it to be entertaining, yes, but you can also tell that they do it because they clearly think they're the shit, especially Matt Bellamy.
Having an elaborate stage setup is mine, but Muse go too far. They must have an extra plane just for all their bullshit set design. | Aids
03.08.11 | Having an elaborate stage setup is *fine | Remer17
03.08.11 | So, are Kiss' and Iron Maiden's stage setups pretentious too? | captaincrunch11

03.09.11 | "So, are Kiss' and Iron Maiden's stage setups pretentious too?"
I don't know, I've never seen them live. KISS' probably is quite pretentious. | Adabelle
03.09.11 | This list is awesome because it has Alexisonfire on it, twice. Saw them in November, second time and they played a ridiculous set with a sweet 5-song-encore.. | eyedea420
03.09.11 | you forgot godspeed you black emperor but mehhh is your existance | Aids
03.09.11 | I saw them in 2011. they will almost certainly be #1 when I make my 2011 live list. I am going to sasquatch again, but there's no way anyone will top Godspeed in Feb. | aok
03.10.11 | sweet list man, but it's noticeably lacking in dj shadow. last year he put on one of the best shows i've ever seen in my life, which made up for missing my morning jacket, massive attack (or so i tell myself)
goin to coachella 2011 to see the national, mumford and sons, a shit ton of awesomeness | TheBuzzKiller
03.10.11 | alexis and billy talent are fantastic together, and I really regret not going to la dispute, but fuck i was too busy, next time for sure. | CrisStyles
03.10.11 | 3 needs to come to connecticut, damn it. | Aids
03.10.11 | if DJ Shadow had come within four hours of me, I would have made the trip. I get to see Trentemoller soon, that should be tight.
The National live = 1 billion orgasms | aok
03.10.11 | shadowsphere was off the hook. seeing trentemoller soon too and you've convinced me to see the national too (i don't know them but they're playing coachella so why not). nice to see a discussion about live music on here | Aids
03.10.11 | thanks. you won't be disappointed in The National; they're one of the best live acts I've ever seen. I saw them and Mumford and Sons at Sasquatch last year (duh, this list) and they were both excellent. Mumford and Sons are really high energy live. | aok
03.10.11 | yea, i was really impressed with sigh no more and am psyched to see them live. them and animal collective probably above all | Aids
03.10.11 | fuck you for getting Animal Collective at Coachella, I was sure they'd be announced to Sasquatch but no dice. overall, Coachella has a much stronger lineup (currently, Sasquatch will be adding bands), but most of them I saw last year
still though, Kanye, Arcade Fire, Animal Collective ahhhh I was banking on all those guys for Sasquatch | TMobotron
03.10.11 | thank you for reminding me i need the middle east, im listening to that now and its fucking awesome | Aids
03.11.11 | you're welcome | Aids
03.11.11 | let me know if there's anything else you need to be reminded to listen to and I'll put it in a list | TMobotron
03.11.11 | http://resources.bplondon.org/images/analrapist.jpg | Listening
03.12.11 | 27, 18, 15, 13, 10, 6, 1
If you want to listen to more Cancer Bats, I recommend their first album Birthing the Giant - especially Diamond Mine and Pneumonia Hawk :-) |
