I mainly showed up to experience the dreamy shoe gaze rock of Brooklyn\u2019s own Dirty on Purpose<\/strong> again. Their songs have a more intense sound live bordering on a more powerful version of Bedhead. This band is quite underrated considering they have released some pretty addicting songs since 2002. They didn\u2019t play \u201cMind Blindness\u201d but they played a bunch of new ones including \u201cYour Summer Dress\u201d which is one of my favorite songs of the year. Despite losing their female band member over a year ago, they\u2019ve gone on to forge crashing waves of distortion and reverberation into fuzzy songs.<\/p>\n

Fujiya & Miyagi<\/strong> is band from Brighton England which has no Japanese members in the band. Although they repeat the name of their band over and over again in one of their songs, these guys are pretty forgettable. The crowd seemed to enjoy the Krautrockish sounds but it sounded just like the record, so I decided to leave halfway through the set so I could just listen to the album at home with much cheaper drinks.<\/p>\n
