    Great band. I have seen them 4 times including once from the front row. High Violet is my favorite of theirs even though Boxer got the highest ratings.

    (There are several threads about them in the Other Music section btw).

    Mmmm mmm good. Saw them open for R.E.M. and that was it. It was their first arena show apparently... They did quite well. :D Yeah I was never a big fan of Boxer... I have always preferred High Violet and Alligator
