That's crazy -- I have to update one of my other perennial lists, which is the list of best shows and has a few of the worst. The Black Lips show definitely hits the latter. I'm not surprised about School of Seven Bells - can't imagine the obverse. As for the Hold Steady, I'm glad we saw them when we did, since the set was way longer than a typical 30 minute SX set. It was also great to see you twice! Frank! That’s crazy — I have to update one of my other perennial lists, which is the list of best shows and has a few of the worst.

I’m not surprised about School of Seven Bells – can’t imagine the obverse.

It was also great to see you twice!

I already knew I really liked them though, kinda bittersweet when it's not a new discovery. School of Seven Bells were actually our WORST. Dunno if you read about their Friday night set but it was a travesty. It's nice to know they can deliver when things go well, but they need more experience playing out for when things do not. Many of your other faves, I still need to check out. Good times! Good to see you again!
