Big Music Weekend

I am so excited to see the Scissor Sisters tomorrow night, and I am also going to try to hit on the Birdmonster show at Slim's afterwards if they have not gone on yet. As Scissor Sisters is sold out, I would recommend checking out the Birdmonster show.


Then on Saturday I am going to the Download Fest (I know worst festival name ever). But the good news is it will feature Beck, YYYs, TVOTR, Muse and The Shins. I am so excited to finally get to Beck perform with his puppets.


Oh yeah and do not pay money in the theaters to see "The Last Kiss", although I love me some Zach Braff and Jacinda from Real World London, this movie totally sucked. It was pretty unbelievable that in one small group of friends that everyone would hate every relationship they were in. Plus the way they tried to recreate The Garden State soundtrack was laughable at best. At least that soundtrack fit with the movie, and featured a lot of up and coming bands plus classics like Simon and Garfunkel. All Braff gives us on this is Snow Patrol from their 2 year old CD not their new one, good ole reliable Coldplay, and some other useless bands that Braff directs videos for. If you want to go see a good movie in the theaters now check out "This Movie Has Not Been Rated" about the MPAA.

Maybe I am alone here, but I really like the new Killers single "When You Were Young". It is pretty melodic and the "you said he doesn't look a think like Jesus" part always get stuck in my head. Oh yeah and new Scissor Sisters "Ta-Dah" is amazing, Joe and I picked up the 2 disc collectors edition CD last night and have been dancing around our apt. ever since.
