So I went to this concert on Saturday, and I was meaning to say something about it but I'm lazy. One of the local public radio stations put it on as a fundraiser, and a bunch of artists played. I just went because I wanted to see Beck and Gary Jules, but Liz Phair was there, and Jurassic 5 and Damien Rice and Jem and the Polyphonic Spree. I'd have to say Beck and Jurassic 5 were my favorite, tho' it was cool to see Gary Jules perform his one (1) big hit song (from the Donnie Darko soundtrack, you know, that one). I got a neat Beck shirt with a storm trooper face on it. A guy at Starbucks asked me if it was something Japanese. I said "Uh, no, it's a storm trooper. From Star Wars?" The Polyphonic Spree played last, and let me tell you, they are TERRIFYING. All 25 of them. They're all really young, except for the main singer, who's like 40. And they wear gospel robes. Also, they gyrate. "Hey, it's the sun! And it makes me shine!" They appeared to be having a great time, but I was scared.
