Should I pay $10 to see Sleepytime Gorilla Museum? I have heard of them, but not any of thier music. I just like saying thier name. Sleepytime gorilla museum... :lol: Anyway, you guys (and gals) are ussually right on the money when it comes to the down low on bands. Are they worth the ten bucks on a Sunday night and gotta get up early for work on Monday, or should I skip this one? Thanks ~Mike

i suppose it all depends on how open-minded you are. they're pretty out there. and that's an understatement. i'd advise you to listen to the music on their site, or at least give a listen to some clips if you are typically hard to please (like me)(i hate concerts.) i've never seen them but i've never heard a bad thing about their live performances, and most people leave completely amazed by the experience

God no! I'm pretty open-minded musically, but STGM are pretentious industrial-classical-prog-core crap. It's theatre for the living in Mom's basement set. Saw them at Tonic last winter.

I was far from "amazed" by their peformance. I found it overly-contrived and extremely boring.

I'd give you an enormous thumbs up if I didn't think they're music was absolutely ridiculous. Oh, and also if I didn't think that their name was just some random adjoining of words.

Whoever said pretentious, they're right on the money.

That's seriously lazy. I said "pretentious" and it was one post up.

i saw them open for the dresden dolls and i thought they sucked but my friend thinks they're great--but he always laughs when he says it so i suspect it's it's the theatricallity (i just made a new word) rather than talent.

i'm just sayin'. . .
