05.30.10 | Accidentally posted and can't add descriptions. The last two are bands I had been meaning to check out and convinced me with great sets. Overall, La Dispute and Trash Talk (the last two shows I went to) took the cake. |

05.30.10 | Damn it, I should have went. I wasn't doing anything today. |

05.30.10 | Damnit man I'm jealous. I really wanted to go but I had to work today. Really wanted to see Polar Bear Club, La Dispute, and Your Best Friend. |

05.30.10 | Yeah, La Dispute really killed it tonight. First time seeing them. I had no idea they had so many followers. Very energetic performance. The whole crowd knew pretty much all the lyrics so I had a difficult time actually hearing the vocalist sing.
Aside from La Dispute, I think the next best set for me was This Town Needs Guns. They played directly after La Dispute at Stage C near the front door. The drummer and the guitarist were fucking sick. Some of the best fingertapping I have ever seen. |

05.30.10 | That sucks man, I was surprised I actually got the day off. |
mmfarva
05.30.10 | People LOVE La Dispute here. Me included.
I didn't get to see This Town Needs Guns, which was disappointing. |

05.30.10 | Agree with 1 and 2 stealing the show. Polar Bear Club and Misery Signals ruled, too. |
EBTCardMania
05.30.10 | Misery Signals got too caught up that they were somehow "progressive" when I saw them a few years ago. It really pissed me off. |
mmfarva
05.30.10 | Polar Bear Club was great, although I had to take a call so missed a bunch of the set (sucked). I wish I'd gotten to the front of Misery Signals, but I was waiting by Stage B for the Trash Talk set. |

05.30.10 | Didn't catch Polar Bear Club, but I plan on seeing them when they come back on June 16th with Moving Mountains. Can't wait for Moving Mountains. |

05.30.10 | I took a couple fists to the back of my head during TT's set. My head's killing me now. |
mmfarva
05.30.10 | Oh the TT set was brutal. I got elbowed everywhere and kicked in the face a couple times. My knees fucked up now too. Worth it, even if I wasn't prepared at all for how nuts that would be. |

05.30.10 | That was the rowdiest pit I've seen in years...maybe ever. At 24, I'm honestly feeling a little too old for that shit. |
mmfarva
05.30.10 | It was constant stage diving to, they didn't care if anyone was there to catch them. |
Yordy
05.30.10 | I had the day off too. I should have gone. Nice call on Brothers dude! They rule. |
mmfarva
05.30.10 | I was surprised by how good the Brothers show was, incredible crowd and a great performance. I'll have to check out some more of their shows. |
