Icubus & Kings Of Leon, how are they?
 

I just bought tickets for Pearl Jam in Nijmegen, June 28. Which is just two days after I'm seeing Sonic Youth in Köln so it's going to be a nice week :)

The lineup for PJ is:
17.00 uur: Perry Farrell's Satellite Party;
17.50 uur: Kings of Leon;
19.00 uur: Incubus;
20.45 uur: Pearl Jam

I'm definately looking forward to see Perry Farell. I love Jane's Addiction, and also what I've heard of his new band (even though it's only the single). And I really like Pearl Jam too, have all their albums except the first and last one, and tons of boots. And live they sound so much better, it will be the first time I will actually see them though. I'm almost more anxious to see them than SY. And it's a regular show, not a shortened festival date.

But I don't know the other two bands at all. Are they any good? I regret that Perry is playing first, would rather see him play just before PJ. Might even have decided to come later and miss the first act then.

Incubus

Incubus are from Calabasas California, they have done a few very popular songs, school/college radio type stuff, they have a GORGEOUS front man with beautiful tattoo's named Brandon.

i like them, but not enough to ever buy on of their albums.
I think the best song they have ever done was Megalomanic, which was quite recently.

Kings of Leon
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTRuzV-BKL0 My favourite Kings of Leon song and video.
Ive seen them twice, they are a pretty okay band, like a southern version of The Strokes. Not as good as Incubus though. The band is made up of three bothers and their cousin, their father was a preacher, and they have very biblical names Jared, Caleb and Nathan and Matthew. They are from Tennessee.

incubus had a couple of good songs at the beginning but they are now modern radio darlings, not that good.

kings of leon are the equivalent of child molestors in music.

like these three?

 

I'm now listening to Incubus through http://musicbox.sonybmg.com/video/incubus/dig
they are not bad, but I'm not dancing on my chair either

worse, at least hanson aren't ripping off ccr and claiming they play original music.

can i just post pictures of Brandon now??????

okay then.

sure ;)
I like their music, but I wouild have preferred a more rougher voice like Mark Lanegan

thanks for the links

Speak English!!!!!!!! and his tattoo are wonderful, you are crazy!

Have tatoos anything to do with the music? No. Do you want what you have to say about music to be taken seriously? Get a grip and find a shag. Ciao.

that better not have been directed at me!

It was directed at you, yes.

you rude fucker!!!!
I said plenty about the band and even gave links to two of their music videos. No tattoo's have nothing to do with the music, but i like his tattoo's and thought i'd mention it.

i'm actually a minor fan of incubus, mostly late incubus.
although light grenades only has a few good songs in my book.
have fun checkin' em out.

Well, their music happens to be rubbish, rude or not. And yes, I'm rude.

in your opinion their music is rubbish, i didn't bring up the subject of Incubus so don't attack me.

most of it is shit, yes. but i like a few of their songs.
they gots some hooks son.

Why are you been so defensive? Just because I don't like Incubus?

that is why, you are acting like an asshole.

What's that meant to mean? Are you Gail Porter?

what??, gail porter??

Yes, Gail Porter.

that slut turned bald angel????

And I'm the rude person? Hmmm.....

she was a slut, she flashed her tit's everywhere anytime she could and now that she's bald she's this angel.
why are you referencing her anyway?

and there is a difference between telling someone on a message board to go get laid because they like a band you don't and calling a celebrity a slut.

you were judging the band based purely on their front mans tattoos!!!

Coz I'm a crypt, I'M a weirdooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
What the hell....................

well either your drunk or you can't type. and i called you crazy for not liking his tattoo's. Don't take that seriously though, i could have called you a million things for not liking his tattoo's, crazy is just the word i chose.

you were rude for no reason, that what you were.

there is not such a thing as normal

Incubus used to be one of those rap/rock bands but then they realised it wasn't cool anymore so the DJ changed to keyboards.

The brothers in Kings of Leon's dad is a Minister, they didn't get to listen to any music (except religious music) until they were in their late teens. I'd think their record collection consists of CCR, New Order and every NME hype band of the 2000's.

On both counts:

Listen to them, they'll validate my opinion all on their own.
