I missed Dungen, but I heard from people whose opinions I respect that it was incredibly boring, which is very surprising to me. It was supposedly a lot more stripped-down than their usual performances, for whatever reason. I saw Tortoise, though, and they were phenomenal. Played for like two hours, immaculate way to end the fest for me. Their percussion was just ridiculous.
Bear in Heaven is a krautrock-ish indie band from Brooklyn. They're a good band on record with a wide array of influences, but they weren't very good live IMO. But people who went to one of their other shows in Chapel Hill say it was amazing, so who knows?
Wow, that's nuts about Dungen... I saw like the last 30 minutes of their set at Roo 06 and it was amazing. Also, Zapp saw them in ATL a few months back (he reviewed it on his blog) and gave it a good review. Well, that sucks.
Did Tortoise have and emphasis on dueling drums? Their live shows always entertain me, though I've only actually been to one of their shows, I've seen quite a few concert videos and love the albums. The xylophone playing is hypnotizing. I still consider them one of my top 10 shows ever.
I am now looking for Bear In Heaven stuff, as it sounds right up my alley.
They definitely put an emphasis on the dual drumming. Their jams were built around the drummers for that show, in the best way possible. I was super drunk on that particular night for that show, but I definitely remember thinking how awesome and percussive their jamming was.
I just made the 3G leap (got a Droid X, but I've named it the Droid K) about a month ago. Told myself I was going to compile/share my user dictionary somewhere after a month, and this place is as good as any. Here's hoping it doesn't make me look too bad...

^ people don't have good enough sense to rip CDs, thats why. I could see if they remastered each track, and released it in a lossless format, maybe repurchasing, but, I would't be so excited about it
hi y'all....I haven't been able to be online much lately with all I have had going on...hopefully I'm settling down and can visit with you inforooers lots more. So excited about 2010 tickets going on sale...so there's one item under the tree/in the stocking for both girls and I
by the way, don't forget to check out the Leonid meteor showers through the 18th. Best viewing times are a couple hours before dawn...it is one of the better meteor showers every year.
Probably my overall favorite beer... I've looked forward to the season the last few years (it's only from November-February). It's a heavier American Pale Ale (6.7 %), so it's almost like an IPA.

My favorite seasonal beer ATM is the Scaldis Noel. It's 12% ABV (!), but you'd never know that by the taste. Gotta go to a pretty serious bar to get it...I tried it at the Thirsty Monk when I was in Asheville for Moog, and it was great. That bar rules if you're ever in Asheville; the downstairs is where it's at. It's like a dungeon from some Scandinavian horror movie, with an unbelievable draught list haha...
Here's my random thought:
About an hour ago, four teenage girls came into the store (probably about 16 years old). I played Funeral and they got really excited, screaming, "You're playing Arcade Fire! I love you now!," and jumping around and singing the lyrics. No joke; I'm not even exaggerating. It was bizarre to say the least. I know it sounds really corny, but something about their unchecked youthful exuberance was really sincere and made me really happy. It makes me happy to know that a band as good as Arcade Fire is that kind of band for this generation.
