Icubus & Kings Of Leon, how are they?
 
I just bought tickets for Pearl Jam in Nijmegen, June 28. Which is just two days after I'm seeing Sonic Youth in Köln so it's going to be a nice week :)

The lineup for PJ is:
17.00 uur: Perry Farrell's Satellite Party;
17.50 uur: Kings of Leon;
19.00 uur: Incubus;
20.45 uur: Pearl Jam


I'm definately looking forward to see Perry Farell. I love Jane's Addiction, and also what I've heard of his new band (even though it's only the single). And I really like Pearl Jam too, have all their albums except the first and last one, and tons of boots. And live they sound so much better, it will be the first time I will actually see them though. I'm almost more anxious to see them than SY. And it's a regular show, not a shortened festival date.

But I don't know the other two bands at all. Are they any good? I regret that Perry is playing first, would rather see him play just before PJ. Might even have decided to come later and miss the first act then.

Incubus

Incubus are from Calabasas California, they have done a few very popular songs, school/college radio type stuff, they have a GORGEOUS front man with beautiful tattoo's named Brandon.
 

i like them, but not enough to ever buy on of their albums.
I think the best song they have ever done was Megalomanic, which was quite recently.

Kings of Leon
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTRuzV-BKL0 My favourite Kings of Leon song and video.
Ive seen them twice, they are a pretty okay band, like a southern version of The Strokes. Not as good as Incubus though. The band is made up of three bothers and their cousin, their father was a preacher, and they have very biblical names Jared, Caleb and Nathan and Matthew. They are from Tennessee.

incubus had a couple of good songs at the beginning but they are now modern radio darlings, not that good.

kings of leon are the equivalent of child molestors in music.

Everyneurotic 06.15.2007 05:52 PM

Speak English!!!!!!!! and his tattoo are wonderful, you are crazy!

sarramkrop 06.15.2007 06:29 PM

Have tatoos anything to do with the music? No. Do you want what you have to say about music to be taken seriously? Get a grip and find a shag. Ciao.

screamingskull 06.15.2007 06:31 PM

that better not have been directed at me!

sarramkrop 06.15.2007 06:32 PM

It was directed at you, yes.

you rude fucker!!!!
I said plenty about the band and even gave links to two of their music videos. No tattoo's have nothing to do with the music, but i like his tattoo's and thought i'd mention it.

lungfish 06.15.2007 06:39 PM

i'm actually a minor fan of incubus, mostly late incubus.
although light grenades only has a few good songs in my book.
have fun checkin' em out.

sarramkrop 06.15.2007 06:39 PM

Well, their music happens to be rubbish, rude or not. And yes, I'm rude.

screamingskull 06.15.2007 06:40 PM

in your opinion their music is rubbish, i didn't bring up the subject of Incubus so don't attack me.

lungfish 06.15.2007 06:41 PM

most of it is shit, yes. but i like a few of their songs.
they gots some hooks son.

sarramkrop 06.15.2007 06:42 PM

Why are you been so defensive? Just because I don't like Incubus?

screamingskull 06.15.2007 06:43 PM

that is why, you are acting like an asshole.
