I dunno, I thought the first 3 bands were actually really good. I also thought that everyone really really dug the northwoods, especially noted by the ecstatic applause after they finished. You should really have a more open mind before bashing on something you know nothing about obviously.

As an avid show-goer, I am always open to a concert featuring any sort of genre-blending line up; something that fights record label-based stereotyped shows, touting Rock Dudes #1, Rock People #2, and Rocks Mcgee #3. In a modern age of instant gratification and the far reaches of the world only a few keystrokes away, I feel that taking advantage of what our hungry consumer ears are willing to devour is completely necessary, especially in a college environment, where the forerunners and trendsetters of our futures exist; open to all principles and sponging up new ideas and feelings, whether it be brought forth by a midterm paper, an inspiring professor, or the soundscape of an immensely rich blend of bands at a free show. Although I may be a bit biased towards a tasty eclectic night of beautiful and raw tunes presented to me, I feel that one cannot attend a collegiate environment with a mindset comparable to that of the dark ages- I say bring on all varieties of music full force! Let me sort through my favorites, weed out what I do not like, and grasp tightly onto those that radiate through my emotions; but always let me remain glad and never take for granted how it was that I developed my musical tastes... with an open mind!
I can only feel a small sense of pity to those who loath out their own despondent indifference and prematurely-weathered views through a battered rambling of slothing literature and closed-minded muck.
