today's info
I saw Modest Mouse this past saturday in Portland, and it was pretty cool. I've seen them twice before, and that was in Philadelphia and Toronto. Toronto was the best show, and Portland my least favorite. It was a great show, but there were so many people compared to the first two times. In Toronto or Philly there were maybe 100 people at the show, so you could get up front without being sandwiched inbetween a bunch of sweaty people. I like the smaller shows a whole lot better. MM isn't really a mosh-pit kind of show, and I don't really expect too many 13 year-olds either. That all changes in the northwest because they're huge here and played two sold out shows. Can't win all the time...
Oh, the other thing about the show was that there was a newborn baby there! Some young mother brought a kid that looked about a month old to the show!? It slept through the whole thing until the end, which is kinda weird if you've been around such young kids. Usually you have to feed or change them every few hours or so. It was kinda sad. Maybe the kid was deaf at birth? I doubt it though.
Oh, and almost equally crappy was the opening bands. The second band had a long name which I don't remember, but the first band, The Spheres are one to avoid (really boring). They had a crap singer too.
