the songs I’ve downloaded cracked me up, they are still appealing (love their homestate of Florida) but are more typical Southern swamp music than I expected, good at it though

another CD I should have bought years ago as recommended, they are amazing, from indie to mariachi, will have to suffer and be a latecomer

just didn’t impress, that bland white-boy soul rap aura (they’re black though) which annoys me, they’re actually more of a funk band

MyGirlFriend was bitter and wanted to leave, they’re typical country rockers, sure the lyrics are entertaining, heard three songs

During Dominic Miller’s short set, you wouldn’t even have known he was playing from the lawn. The sound was muted and far away. People hadn’t really settled down, and weren’t seated until well after Annie Lennox had already started. Dominic Miller sat alone and strummed away, I couldn’t even tell you if he sang a note. He did, however, bring out Sting for a duet on “Shape of my Heart.”

carried by her gorgeous grittier Mazzy Star voice and good lyrics because be it guitar or piano her melodies are simplistic and repetitive, creates a great atmosphere but not variety

soccer referee drummer, spiritual rocker to modern rocker costumes too, from classic to 80s rock music, they do rock, behave as if already classic, music is already classic, too formulaic perfect?
