    The Beastie Boys have great everytime I've seen them. Which is 3 or 4 times.

    The worst act I've seen live is the Red Hot Chili Peppers, although I do love their records.

    I'm on a one man mission to make The Duke Spirit a band you all like. I expect a PJ fan gathering at their stage come the end of August.

    I love the Duke Spirit...saw them at the Roxy in Hollywood last December and they're really electric live! Highly recommended...they're opening for Incubus on their tour this summer, which is probably why both bands are playing at Outside Lands.

    The NAtional ARE a huge dissapointment live. I saw two winters ago and really thought his vocals are just to weak live. Love them on CD but live is a great dissapointment. That being said, I'll be seeing them again at APW festival so maybe they can change my opinion.

    I could not disagree more. The only reason i like this band is because of how gret they are live.

    I saw them open for the arcade fire and i was like who the hell are these guys they are great. i got their cd and was a little disapointed in the slightly less passionate versions of the songs on the album

    Please don't miss the national. I've seen them twice and were wonderful both times.
    i totally agree with you!! i was a fan before seeing them live...but the energy and passion of their show is just amazing. it definitely has to be in the right venue...that energy can just be lost in a large area/festival.

    I saw them at the Brooklyn Academy of Music which is a beautiful theater...and the next time I see them will be at APW which really wont help their quite loungy sound. Too bad because I was a much bigger fan before seeing them.

    Unfortunately, I have to agree. I love the band, but both of my live experiences with them have been awful. Short sets. Band wasn't tight. Isaac's vocals were a mess.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.

    Listen guys... Ween. For real. One of the great live acts of all time.

    Now granted, they are not for everyone. But I love them.

    I know I haven't listened to Ween for a while but damn, when did Gene Ween add 100lbs and age 20 years?
