I went, I enjoyed Nada Surf a lot, mostly because I knew most of the songs really well. They only played a couple of songs off the previous two albums (they did not play Popular). Low point was probably when they played their French song. They did an interesting version of Stalemate, they broke in to Love Will Tear Us Apart for a few minutes in the middle of the song, it fit in perfectly. They also played The Light that Never Goes Out in tribute to the check engine light on their old van that eventually died. Third time I have heard that covered by different bands in the last year. Neil Finn's version was still the best, but they did a respectable job with it.
Ozma was cheesy Pinkerton era Weezer-like band with bad songs.
And then as we left some guy who works at the Black Cat said I hope you all realize you just lost two hours of your life. This from the moron in his hipster union jack jacket who works at the club who puts the shows on. It seems to me that the managers at the Black Cat do a great job and are nice people, but some of the staff can be pretty annoying and are worse than the hipster patrons.
