Easy.... Ryan Adams (Umphreys tours a lot, unlike Ryan, and Umphreys might still be around in a couple years, unlike Ryan).

Saturday, Built to Spill. I don't even understand how you're having trouble there. :)

wheres the love for Umphrey's?

Umphrey's should be waiting back stage to wash Ryan Adams' car. They're destined to be a minor footnote in a musical movement that is itself a minor footnote. Ryan Adams has already written a dozen songs that will last long after he is gone.

boooo

I love Umphrey's McGee, just because some people might not think they are "important" (which some people will disagree with) they still deserve some love...remember "the stupid babies need the most attention" :D

i've got your love for umphreys!

but... if it came down to it and i was faced with the dilemma, i'd skip umph and see ryan adams instead.. and then make up for it with a NYE trip to Chicago to tear it up. that way you're a winner all over the place.

AD's right though.. umphreys does tour a lot, whereas adams doesn't.. definately something to keep in mind.

then i'd go feist - built to spill.

I guess it depends on your mood, Admirable Admiral King. If your rage is on, I'm sure UM will be swinging for the fences. Ryan Adams surely isnt touring around here much, so rare opportunities need be taken. UM is best in a 2 set situation anyway.

Saturday: BTS, and whatever you happen to see before.

At least Umphreys wouldn't stop a show and kick a fan out for making a joke at their names, unlike Mr. Fragile (massive) Ego Ryan Adams....

Fan in crowd at Ryan Adams show: "Play 'summer of '69!"

Ryan Adams to audience "Get that guy out of here or I don't play another song."

Mr Crybaby I'm so damn important then had his manager escort the heckler out of the show, only to have him return shortly after with an apology from Ryan's manager for making him walk out in the first place, to appease Mr. Bigshot.

He may write great songs, but what a fucking loser. And crybaby whiner with no sense of humour.

Umphreys may not write touching, heartfelt ballades but they will play CIRCLES around any band out there now.

Umphrey's solution: See them with members of the Bisco the next night

From their website:

Saturday, 5 August 2006

Side Show - Brain Damaged Eggmen

The Vic Theatre

Doors: 10:00 pm

Show: 11:00 pm

- featuring Brendan Bayliss, Jake Cinninger, and Kris Myers along with Marc Brownstein and Aron Magner from the Disco Biscuits

Thanks for all the advice.

I won't be missing Built to Spill that's for sure.
