No, no it definitely is not, as I am speaking from experience.
I'm speaking from experience as well. Stop being such a music snob, it's getting annoying. Everyone's entitled to their own opinions, and last time I checked, 90% of OK Go fans are WAS fans as well, so you're basically outnumbered here.
Join Martha and Rufus Wainwright, Kate and Anna McGarrigle and several other special family and guests as they perform The McGarrigle Christmas Hour to several cities across America this year.
hmm... so Death Cab is in 8 days... and my friend's parents are probably making her move before she can come... and the other kid coming with us is someone I don't talk to a lot... and I have the tickets.. and if she does move (to toronto) then I'll have one, maybe two extra tickets (dunno if andrew'll wanna go or not w/out ani) and I have no clue what's going on.
but I'm excited.
oh, and no Ok Go for me, as the Boston show is 1) 21+ and 2) a "win tickets from WFNX" and I have no luck whatsoever. which means four shows in the past 13 months I haven't been able to go to. gahh.

but... Tally Hall November 18, methinks!
What huh how no way! How is it a win tickets deal?? Are you sure it's 21+??
I'm sure WAS put on a rad show have a great time at the show!
Well, they weren't good following Art Brut. It would have been good had they been before I guess, but they were just too low energy, especially at 2 am. I didn't mean that to be rude, sorry if it sounded that way.

Katy, I didn't mean that to sound rude, RELAX. I like WAS, but they're so low energy it doesn't compare to OK Go. It's like comparing The Lashes to Stars, you just can't do it. Kind of like when you saw Franz with Death Cab. Speaking of which, I think a good show would be Death Cab, WAS, and Stars. Man, I'd pay big money to see that.

Well, I mean, even if you didn't intend it to sound rude- and I know you didn't- it really did. You've been more music snobby lately (didn't you just join a "My pretentious indie music is better than yours" group on Facebook? I love the Stalker I mean News Feed....), and if there's one thing that really bothers me- Why are all of these cars honking outside of my window???- it's music snobbery.
I don't think WAS is low energy. Maybe they were having an off night. I definitely wouldn't put them with DCfC and Stars.
Edit: I think someone's just gotten married and that's why all the cars are outside honking. I think. Since when is it the French tradition to drive around being obnoxious when someone gets hitched?

Speaking of gigs, I'm on the guest list for 2 music festivals thanks to Jen.

Really? When I saw them, it was complete insanity. Kids were jumping everywhere and just cheering and dancing.... granted, I was in the mosh, but still.
Also, I was lucky enough to see them on the last night of the WAS tour with Art Brut and the Spinto Band (who are a bunch of cuties, btw. I talked to Thomas since he went to Bennington which is where my bf went [which is actually how I found out about the show. ken asked me to listen to them and I loved them, found out they were touring with WAS, freaked, and bought tickets]. My friend, who was adorably drunk at the time, kept saying I was "PRACTICALLY FAMOUS." ...then she forgot about it and we danced). Because it was there last night, they went all out: everyone coming onstage for the "finale," Chris not having any clothes on besides underwear, etc. etc.
It was one of the best concerts I've been to. I was so ridiculously sweaty and out of breath by the end from trying not to fall over in the mosh (the most that happened to me was that I lost a shoe then regained it. I was, for about 5 minutes until I found it, really thrilled at the prospect of going home with only one shoe on).
This is too long, so summary: I'm sorry yours wasn't so high-energy, but, ont he whole, it seems that WAS is usually a bunch of rablerousers.
Were Death Cab low energy when you guys saw them or something? Last night, they were all fucking maniacs. They ran all over the stage, there were drum solos and guitar duels, plus Ben wouldn't shut up.

Which is practically just as cool.

Yeah, and what about Kikky????? Please tell me you didn't forget about her.
..... .....
I wasn't the one that asked....
I wasn't the one that asked....
Okay, understandable. But you're still going to help her get a ticket/get backstage, yes? That would be nice of you...
How do you expect me to do that? Ask milosh? Geez, she's got as much pull as me.
I meant when you actually got to the show.
Hmm, maybe.
