    The Vines are good, check out the song Spaceship

    The Hives are alright but almost all their songs sound alike which gets real boring, the stupid matching suits is too gimmicky as well.

    as far as the hives go. they could blow pearl jam off the stage. stateside they play pretty good sized venues but in europe and the rest of the world they play big venues (sell them out) and are typically one of the better draws at festivles.*


    Well...The Vines weren't so shit hot when I saw them a few years ago in Detroit. The sound was so aweful...I walked out after 3 songs. Luckily enough I walked accross the street to the bar and saw The Black Keys and had my face blown off FOR FREE!!!

    Perhaps The Hives should spend a little less time standing in front of the mirror grooming their hair, and pretending to be The Stooges, Stones, Kinks, and Pretty Things, and actually learn how to tune their guitars.

    Pearl Jam could wipe the floor with this band any day of the week.

    As much as i hate to say it I think the hives are a better live band than pearl jam
