Not a single band on there I would see even for free, although I don't mind Against Me. Last year's was pretty bad too but at least I got to see Built to Spill and almost saw GBV (before they broke up) at shows outside of the main event. Hoping a couple good bands play around then this year. I wonder why it is so early this year. It hasn't even been six months since the last one happened and they are already announcing a new one for July?

I saw Roky in Portland back in 2008.  I will say that I enjoyed it but it was more like paying my respects than anything.

 

I also saw the Sonics in Seattle that trip and it was just after they started playing again.   The show was at some sit down theatery type place and it was only OK.  However, I saw them in Chicago last year and they were back in fighting form and it was amazing.

 

If you're on the fence, I strongly encourage you to catch the Sonics (FOR TEN DOLLARS).  Plus it's like a block away from the Oblivians show.

I'm really surprised he has come back from his mental state to be playing again. I know it's not going to be like seeing him in his former glory, but that's ok. I use said it's more of paying respects, which is still awesome. I never though I would get to see him.

 

I heard the Sonics are writing new music too. I think I'll see them over Preservation just cause I've been listening to the Sonics for so long. And it's cheaper than Preservation, so I'm sure I'll end up going to see the Sonics.

They have a new record out and it's actually pretty good. Not really as dark as their iconic early stuff but it's solid rock and roll.
