| Anyone ever heard of these guys? They are OK.. I'm going to see them tomorrow night in Hollywood at the Viper Room (21 + clubwhere all the movie stars hang out). One of co-workers is obsessed with them and I've started to dig their cd that she plays all the time at work. But I'm pretty excited to be going to my first show at the Viper Room! I'll have a report up in two days! |

| Thanx for the links(I think HEHE)boy is that website HARD to navigate. I guess you warned me though, but I think it is a little to artsy for it's own good. I couldn't find out anything about them. I read the reviews on the amazon page but the only indicator to style compared them to Radiohead and Tool. Is this accurate? R they like a cross between these 2 bands. If they are, I should be hot on the heels of checking them out. That sounds really kewl. LMK what you think Kev. |

| I hate it when there is no bio of the band on their website. How are you supposed to find out about the band. Damn artsy-fartsy bands. HEHE |

| yeah, the music itself is pretty melodic along the lines of Radiohead and Tool, in fact, that is how my co-worker compares them... and the lead singer has a kind of 80's -ish voice. Some of those reviews are a bit exaggerated though. The cd is very well produced however. It was recorded at George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch. |

Now can we get something done about their website? HEHE
Try and meet them and tell them they need a bio on that page and needs to be easier to navigate. Some of us are so artsy-fartsy-computer inclined.(Read: ME) |

haha.. HOB was indeed a very special night, but I was just saying that the viper room was a unique expirience since I just turned 21 and it was the first 21+ club that I've (legally) attended.

| Well I checked out my first Dredg CD at work yesterday. It was their earlier CD not the new one. I was impressed. Not enuf to pick it up on first listen but I added to my STACK and will listen to it a couple more TIMes and decide. I will let you know what I decide. Glad you liked the show. Maybe they will play 9:30 club and I can see them live. It wouldn't be the first TIMe that it took a live show to bring me around to a band. Don't get me wrong, I didn't dislike it, I just wasn't drastically moved on first listen, but I quite enjoyed it and plan on playing it somemore to see if it grows on me. Thanx for the recommendation and review. |

Fluffy, Fluffy, Fluffy. Do you have RealPlayer or WinAMP? If so, all you have to do is download the file to your temp folder and then open it using either of those utilities. (I think.)

Just visit http://www.real.com and download their free player. (It's a plug-in, I think.) It should do the rest. |

Ahah! I knew there was a good thread about these guys.. well we went to go see them again last week in hollywood at the Roxy theatre. I think I enjoyed the show a bit more (musically) because I was more familiar with the songs. I still encourage everyone to check out their newest cd "El Cielo".
One other note, is that we saw Kelly Osborne hanging out in front of the club before we went in, and we saw her head in to the Roxy so she must be a Dredg fan! |
