so me and a couple friends went to see this band yesterday. They were opening for Stabilo.
The only reason I went was because my friend knew the bass player of said opening band.
anyway, it cost WAY too much...fuck, I didn't even have to pay 18 dollars for the Constantines and the Weakerthans on the same bill, but I have to pay it to see a coldplay rip-off band and fuckin STABILO.
The opening band, Strada, were alright. They copied every page from the Coldplay book only they were a bit harder. Still, it says something when some local upstart canadian band is making music not only as good as coldplay's...but better!
Not saying it was brilliant...but they were as good or better than CP.
ANYWAY, so then STABILO come's on and I immediately felt possessed by the demons of boredom. They are bad.
Matchbox 20 bad.
Usually, even stupid bands are a little entertaining live. Hell, I think Great Big Sea have a great live show.
But I was bored and only wanted to leave
So...Stabilo...go back to Vancouver and stop embaressing the rest of your country
