It's just terrible music.
Man, these festival crowds. Hell truly is other people.
Mudhoney were FANTASTIC. Just killed it.
Mudhoney live is just plain awesomeness. They bring it.
Im surprised about AF being a terrible band, you dont like their albums or they kinda sucked live?

So yeah apart from It's OK, early Blood and Red Mosquito, this just kind of tapered out in to a so-so show for mine. Crowd into it early, but the mix of songs mid-set felt like it lacked any sort of flow and the casual aspects of the crowd lost interest.
I was 3 deep in front of Jeff and it was fun, just lacked something tonight. Still great though.
Arcade Fire horrendous.

This is where you and I disagree, friend. I am very jealous that you got to see them - they aren't coming here this year.

Spenno never liked them, I doubt it's because of their live show.
Fucking love Arcade Fire something fierce.

If their set were any good, I would have happily said so. I don't think I'd heard any of their songs in full before last night. Can confirm, they're uniformly terrible.

Just as long as you realize you've got Stip on your side on that one.

But why do you feel that way? I mean, its Win vocals or what?

THE MUSIC SOUNDED BAD INSTEAD OF GOOD.

Between Arcade Fire, the misanthropy-inducing festival crowd and getting "It's OK" as a Daughter tag it doesn't sound like it was a great evening to be Spenno.

No kidding!
Hey, it wasn't a total wipeout, Mudhoney were a blast.
Definitely the least-enjoyable Pearl Jam show I've seen. It was kind of a bummer, frankly.
