Yeah APC was great, however one thing I cannot stand about Maynard is that he doesn't allow smoking inside the arena. I wouldn't mind if he was actually on the fucking stage and within 5-10 feet of the crowd, but he's all the way in the back, on a platform atleast 25-30 feet from anyone. Making people throw away full packs of cigs and lighters is nothing but a power trip imo. Another thing that i hated was the fact that everyone and their mother in the seated section (where i was sitting) HAD TO FUCKING STAND UP FOR THE ENTIRE SHOW...considering everyone in APC moves approximately 5 inches total throughout the entire show it's just not necessary. Otherwise, they played a solid set including just about every song off of 13th step which is the only cd i have so word.
spread the volta love
while we are on the topic of good bands I just saw Godspeed You! Black Emperor who are undoubtedly my favorite instrumental band of all time...these guys are fucking amazing. Not only did they play a brilliant hour and a half set...but jesus fucking christ they followed that up with an hour and a half long encore.
i creamed all over myself.
Mogwai owns u all as well.
