Has anyone here seen Mew live? I just went to a local record store and the clerk gave me two free tickets for there show here in Minneapolis tomorrow night but I really don't know much about them. I checked out some MP3's and they were a lot quieter then i thought they would be but still sounded like something I could probably get into. I'm not a huge concert goer anymore so if anyone has seen them and would highly recommend me going please try to convince me.

i've been thinking the same thing. they opened for kasabian here earlier in the month and i only heard about kasabian, but they're also a really good live band. if you do go, let us know how it is. they're here on thursday.

I plan on going. I might be going solo cause my wife has had plans for tonight for awhile and my friends usually aren't down with seeing someone they haven't heard yet.

Jesus. Tomorrow night Hold Steady or Mew. It's a cruel world.

I think Mew wins. Any Chicagobners in for this at the Double Door?

Same options for me tonight in Minneapolis. The Hold Steady or Mew. But since the Mew tix were free it makes the decision a whole lot easier.

Great show tonight. I could have passed on the opener onethousandpictures but Mew was awesome. Visuals really made the show for me. I really don't have much to say about it cause I'm tired but I'm happy they only played for one hour. I get sick of bands dragging on and on at there shows. So alright. Goodnight.

They've apparently been using a projector showing violin-playing cats and rabbits synced up to the music. Sounds (and looks) pretty awesome:

The visuals are quite awesome! Glad you enjoyed the show, PS!

And, you were being nice about onethousandpictures -- they pretty much suck.

this is just making my decision for tonight that much more difficult. i also heard the hold steady has been on lately. thanks for writing it up.

did they play "comforting sounds"? that's probably my favorite mew song, but i doubt they'll play it since it's nearly 9 minutes long and 4 of those minutes are a bore.

I just got on the guest list for Hold Steady. That decision was easy. I can't wait to hear "Party Pit".

No, I am the +1. Going with JP. Get a ticket and come with us! It's closer than Double Door and you won't stink. Plus, it's supposed to rain tonight.

she never remembers me. we even write for the same site and i doubt she'd know who i was. maybe i should just start making up new identities whenever i see her.

stop being a baby. she remembered you at intonation. and really, would you know all of the other gapers writers if you saw them on the street? would you run up to them with open arms and proclaim them all to be your friends? no. if that's your only reason for not going, you're retarded.

no, but i've met her a lot of times through you before that. my reasons for not going would be that i'm about to drop more than my rent on my car today and another band i like is also playing in town. i've also seen the hold steady twice prior. this is going to be a close call.

why do you assume that she doesn't like you because she doesn't remember you? how many times have i met arturo's dumb friend linsey and she still doesn't remember me? at least i make an effort to get jp to remember you.

and what does a $800+ car payment have to do with a $10 or $12 ticket? seriously, if you're going to spend that kind of money in one day, a few dollars difference is a goddamned drop in a bucket.

oh, and you might be dropping $200 on a bears ticket to the miami game if you're interested. len can't go now. he says it's because of a wedding, i say it's because he doesn't want to hang out with big mike.

why aren't we emailing this? i'm hungry.
