best show i saw at 9:30 was most definitely either belle & Sebastian or lifetime.

[sweetcell]

i'm implying that stereolab blew.  i'm a big fan of theirs, have been since the mid-90's, so i was psyched for their show.  i left entirely disappointed.  sound was awful, stage presence lacking.  i tuned out halfway through their first set, i don't think i stayed until the end of it.
 
 i thought that zero 7 put on a decent show.  only thing that bugged me was that sia chick... talk about annoying.  she was egotistical and didn't fit in with the rest of the group nor their sound, she would be better off fronting an all-girl punk band.  but otherwise was a solid night at the 930, i'd go see them again.
