Published on October 31st 2003
This show was at The Middle East, which seems like a nice place. After my friend was sas I have to say, they are some happy, feel-good tunes. Back to the show, the couple came on stage and introduced themselves. Jason tried telling a joke, try being the operative word. Kori shot down his comic attempt by saying he can’t tell jokes. It was a precious moment. They opened with a song I don’t know, but it got the crowd going. They then busted into “Ha Ha” and The Middle East was turned into a 24-hour dance party zone. Other songs I recognized were “Fluke,” “Parachutes,” and “A Duel Will Settle This.” That’s not to say the rest of their set wasn’t rocking, though. It was rocking. You can tell a band is good, at least live, if they keep your interest for the entire set. The two of them interact well, even without talking to each other. They shot each other cute glances across stage and all I could think was, “how precious.” I enjoyed them, although I was standing right next to the PA and my ears are still ringing (this show was last Friday)! I probably should’ve picked up one of their cd’s, as they were selling for only ten clams, but I forgot. People who liked this also liked:  Please login or register to post comments.

what.... First, my score is for when I saw DCFC in NYC two weeks ago. They were excellent. My only complaint was when Ben got a little overly emotional about Elliott Smith at the very end of the show. That just kind of bothered me. to those of you death cab for cuties hatas. take a suckle of my dizickle mothafizzles. hey whoever said this board is hilarious, you couldn't be more fuckin right, but "right the fuck on' cause i don't give a damn what anybody says, Death Cab rocks, its what every Indie Rock band wants to be, btw if you don't know what Indie Rock is to begin with, you have no say. I'm already on it janelle. Yeah, I'm the funniest one here too...*sigh* I also like bands such as OPIV. And such as the Mates of State too. But they're playing at the same time as the Riverboat Gamblers whom I like bands such as. Fuckin' sucks. poor cutie* i have to disagree with ilikebandssuchasopivy. this site has just about the funniest readers on the web. i come here for the cheap laughs and lame humour. it all rules. "but before going to the show I made sure I 'did my homework,' and wrote my English paper." "Your brand...has the...shell" i live to serve. "but before going to the show I made sure I “did my homework,” and wrote my English paper. After that, I downloaded some Mates of State songs." I saw Death Cab For Cutie at Minneapolis. They played with The Long Winters, who were just trying to be The Eels, or mayhaps, The Apples in Stereo. The only good thing is that they covered Madonna's Don't Stop, but no one got it. Death Cab ripped it up. I only wish that I had gotten Transatlanticism before I saw them. wait a second! did "ilikebandssuchasopivy" just call ME a moron!!!??? look at his screen name, for christs sake!!! omg. "way to miss the joke. joke-misser." "so...is there not going to be any reviews of the new strokes cd? i like it, but after the first 4 songs, it's purely not as good as Is This It" Seeing as how I'm already flooding this page with my comments, ill add this one.. Thank god for the amazing content on this site, because if that was not present, punknews would be a fucking trainwreck because of the community. To say that the credibility of a review is taken away by the person's user name, that is CLEARLY a joke, is so moronic it makes my head hurt. You know, this is not the only review in which these comments have been made. I was just reading the review for Making Friends by NUFAN and it was the same shit, in it the reviewer made a comment that it was 'punk rawk' to have a short album, and what did the punknews community do? Right over their fucking heads. Honestly, just because you have a keyboard in front of you and an open form with which you can voice your opinion does not make you a genius. There is a lot of humor laced into these reviews, and by lashing out against the reviewers you are only providing them with more ammunition with which they can insult the scene that is comprised of morons like ALL OF YOU. Fuck.. How about you stop commenting, turn on your casualties cd, and stop ruining the credibility of an otherwise amazing website. Bear VS Shark - Busses/No Busses should be the mp3 of the year.......that song is soo good they didn't. my only question is why the fuck did they kill cutie? i love when death cab came back to Bellingham, WA (their home) and played Bjork's All Is Full of Love! it was orgasmic to say the least. so many dumb asses on this site. "i love death cab, this score is for them. it is a damn shame to see them reviewed by somebody named "sk8punx4evr" makes me sick. go listen to avril and simple plan. deuche" oh shit, i just got fucked twice wow. am i the only one who realizes that "sk8punx4evr" is a joke for a user name? "i love death cab, this score is for them. it is a damn shame to see them reviewed by somebody named "sk8punx4evr" makes me sick. go listen to avril and simple plan. deuche" "i'm from boston and i say wicked all the fucking time. it's not a stereotype, it's soemthing we say" so...is there not going to be any reviews of the new strokes cd? i like it, but after the first 4 songs, it's purely not as good as Is This It i love death cab, this score is for them. it is a damn shame to see them reviewed by somebody named "sk8punx4evr" makes me sick. go listen to avril and simple plan. deuche funkisdead* i was tempted to take finkisdead up on that register as mr fucking anonymous but i was overcome by lazyness. i'm from boston and i say wicked all the fucking time. it's not a stereotype, it's soemthing we say i'm not from boston. and the name? learn to take a joke! they probably requested that so they and mates of mates could play longer. I hate bands that want to make their fans satisfied. On this tour Death Cab said they wouldn't play with any local openers. I was at the Death Cab show in Detroit...and we got no encore. Granted, they played for damn near 2 hours, but that we also didn't get a Cure cover, now that makes me sad. Especially "Love Song"...I would love to hear Ben sing that song. death cab fucking rock, and least the guy has a username, mr. fucking anonymous. Don’t be surprised by the low quality reviews on this site. Jesus, look at the reviewers name, “sk8punx4evr”?! at least now I know death cab is catering to the kids who like mall punk. did this guy from BOSTON actually say "wicked"? I thought that was a stero-type. my supposed naivete was the joke. way to miss the joke. joke-misser. "I thought, “Death Cab, are you tricking me? Are you actually going to play a few more songs? You guys!” This was confirmed when they walked back on stage and picked up their instruments." |
