    I was just gonna post that I saw them open for Dino Jr a few years ago, and they were just alright.... actually they were the first band, Dinosaur was the 2nd band, and the main act was Built to Spill. I went mainly to see Dinosaur Jr. It wasn't a good night for any of the bands, though. And the audience was ultra-hipstery.
