I can’t say I’m much of a Silversun Pickups fan. The Smashing Pumpkin similarities are just too much for me. But I do love this song – one of the best riffs of ’09. And they do a friggin’ fantastic job with this MTV unplugged version of if. For the entire MTV unplugged performance, click here.
Here it is. The initial line up for Outside Lands. And all I can say is WTF? Pearl Jam, Black Eyed Peas and The Dave Matthews Band for christ sakes? We’ve gone from Radiohead to Fergie. That’s definitely going to draw the wrong crowd. Too bad because the ‘opening’ bands look great – Band of Horses, Silversun Pickups, The Dead Weather (definitely interested in Jack White’s latest venture), The National, Deerhunter, The Duke Spirit.
Ah well, it’s up to you Treasure Island Music Fest. You haven’t let me down yet.
