I suppose. But, snow shouldn't keep you from seeing the GRIZ!
Also found out today that First Ave. gave Grizzly Bear a star up on their wall.

As we all know, the state of Texas generally fails, and now, it's going to fail the Grizzlies too.
From Ed Droste's Twitter: "Kinda bummed we can't use our mason jar lights for Austin's EMO's show...it's the only venue that simply doesn't have the electricity!

I want to hear about Beach House too.
I realized that they are playing in Atlanta on Monday. Sold Out. Pissed.

I know I'm not impy, but I thought Beach House were pretty boring. They used a drum machine with the same minimal, blah beat on every single track. The lead singer, Victoria Legrand, has a gorgeous voice though; I just wish she was singing in a different band instead.

In contrast, Shuttlecock played nearly as many ATYCLB songs tonight as they did No Net. I don't follow THE GRIZ! sets, but damn that looks fresh.

Was "Little Brother" the acoustic or electric version? And, isn't "On a Neck, On a Spit" just fucking incredible live? Definitely one of my favorite performances from the other night.
"Lil' Bro" was electric, and AWESOME. I was shocked to hear them start up "On a Neck, On a Spit," but it was as great live as I imagined. It rained all day yesterday, so it was an interesting environment. No one got into it when I yelled THE GRIZ! after the show though.

Nice, that's the version we got too. Another highlight of the night for me. Did they breakdown into an extended jam in the middle of it? That's the part that melted my face off.
No Woodstock-esque mud fights though?

It's not our fault that you were too chicken to bear (ha, pun!) the weather for THE GRIZ! 
Before you kill yourself though, I should mention that I like this year's Misfits Halloween av better than last year's.

Gorgeous. I'm partial to Ed's voice, and I actually think I like Chris Taylor's voice over Dan's.

NBC: The Tonight Show With Conan O'Brien: Grizzly Bear
Good stuff. I'm glad they brought Victoria Legrand along for "Two Weeks." Was it just me though, or was Ed's voice sounding off tonight?

I just watched it. I don't know who Ed is but, yes, the weird looking lead singer was off. That's the only song I've heard from Veckatimest, by the way. Kinda wish they had done a different song. Oh well.

Yeah, he's the "weird looking lead singer." I have to agree with you about the song choice too; "Two Weeks" was the first single, and after releasing another, there's not really a reason to play it again on late-night shows. I would've been way more excited to see a non-single like "Ready, Able" instead.

The review I did for the show is up now: “This is a foreground”: Grizzly Bear heightens its star status at First Avenue : U2 Interference – U2 Fans, Pop Culture Webzine, & More
Check it out, if anybody's interested.

As in, your desire to see the movie was already so great that nothing could raise it???
Ha ha, Exactly mofo! Actually I saw the first one, but only cause a hot girl invited me to it and I thought going to it with her would get me some action later...
The new moon soundtrack actually has a surprising line up of artists: Grizzly Bear, Bon Iver, BMRC, Death Cab, Muse, Editors, Thom Yorke, Lupe Fiasco, Sea Wolf, The Killers...not bad.
Just so everyone knows what UiU and I are talking about, "action" in Utah means touching knees for a split second while sitting a foot apart from each other on the couch.
97% of females here will feel guilty about it the next day, and will tell you (via text or email, so as to avoid having to actually talk about such a taboo subject as "knee on knee") that they've prayed about it and feel like they shouldn't ever have such close physical contact with a male again until they're married.
This is generally the point where I lose more of what is left of my tiny amount of remaining sanity, and come even closer to becoming patient zero for the rage virus.
This is how the world ends, two Utahns accidentally touch knees for .6 seconds. ALL BECAUSE OF TWILIGHT!

so that's the plot of 2012? The commercials make it look like something else...
LOL thats great...and unfortunately somewhat true...stupid backwards Utah culture.
Still, all utah girls shouldn't be judged by U2pm's anecdotal evidence from his history with women. I'll have to let U2pm know where the real Utah sluts are hiding. If you're lucky, some of them will even engage in pre-marital hand holding! Of course they make you wear gloves for protection...
