| Thanks for the suggestion... yep Ive been hearing all the hype but Im yet to give them a good listen.
The problem being my partner in crime for the weekend loves Daftpunk... But I might try twist her arm 
and Yes I might fit in The Hold Steady. Although I only know one song and have no opinion on them as of yet. What exactly is Blue Collar Rock? gimme another example | | | |

| Floodzer, the Hold Steady are excellent. I bought their current album on the strength of that one single and a clatter of good reviews and for once I haven't been disappointed. The Springsteen comparisons are valid but they're not just clones either, in fact I'd go so far as to say that their lyrics are superior ( and I say that as a huge Springsteen fan. )
I'll be checking out CSS also, and evidently I'm the only one on Cluas too uncool to want to see The Killers and Snow Patrol. | | | |

Well as far as I can see they aint clashing with anyone so I might just drop in for a listen thanks.
I'd like to see The Killers too actually, I watched their Glastonbury set on d'telly last week and was quite impressed. But when I saw them at Oxegen (2 yrs ago?) I had a brutal time and Ive never seen Daft Punk or The National live so I'll probably opt for one of them instead. Snowpatrol are dead to me after this year... | | | |

| THE GOSSIP "that's it really. They're the only band I REALLY want to see"
Is the album very strong? havent got around to getting it yet, loved the single though....great singer.....
having seen brian wilson at glasto 2 years ago, i strongly recommend ppl to see him, the band are outrageous.......the hold steady too, oh and rufus wainright......it really is a fantastic line up, hope the atmosphere is good though, not in a snobby fashion, just in a "not burning, p*siing on tents, starting row" way..... | | | |

| | I love their three records, but Standing In The Way Of Control is the best one. Namely, I just want to hear that title track live because I will lose my mind. | | | |

| Right, I've decided to check out The Gossip on account of all you f*ckers raving about them ( and also because I plan to see both The Twang and Biffy Clyro before them so might as well stick around. )
Anyone care to describe who/what they sound like ? | | | |

| Although I like Bright Eyes on record, I wouldn't go near him live again after the disaster that was Glasto '05.
p.s. the gossip suck. really awful stuff. | | | |
