Im going to a similar festival here. Built to Spill, At the drive In, Death Cab, Lorde, Warpaint & Deerhunter interest me to some degree, I hope I get to see most of them.
Im pretty excited for Built to Spill because they are one of my favorite bands and I didn't really expect them to come here. They're probably not a band that works great in a festival setting though.

does Spoon sound just like their records live? it's a very composed sound, those albums
Yeah, they do. If anything, their mix even allows each instrument room to breath.
I bet Don't Make Me a Target sounds awesome live.
Spoon is awesome live, but the last time I saw them was probably 10 years ago. I'd be curious to see how they are now. I used to see them all the time in a bar in Memphis when I lived there almost 20 years ago.

They are fantastic live. Just saw them at the belly up in aspen.
They have this incredible ability to sound loose and garage like yet with excellent precision. They are so good live.

that's a great description of them. i've always enjoyed how loose they sound, but they're songs are so f'ing locked in. i love their swagger.

i really liked their most recent, Hot Thoughts
I'd probably rank the 3 after Ga Ga Ga as:
Hot Thoughts They Want My Soul Transference
I remember now that I did spin Transference a couple times when it came out. It was fine, but it mostly made me want to listen to their older stuff. I will check out Hot Thoughts at my kitchen this week.

agreed .. Transference was fine and all, but after Ga Ga, it fell a little flat
man, that 3 album run of Kill The Moonlight > Gimme Fiction > Ga Ga Ga is so unbelievable. that might be one of the best 3 album runs out there.
