Friday - Very disappointed in the free shows so far this year. Opening night Friday was awful, was hoping to embrace Sauce boss and Mavericks (1 star)based on the hyped up descriptions but only took a few songs each to lose my interest. The Sauce Boss guy was a disaster, (0 stars)
Saturday - goodbyemotel was awesome (5 stars), Blood Seat and Tears also pretty good (4 stars)
Wednesday - Gyrophilia - again very disappointed compared to the hyped up descriptions, tried for 4 or 5 songs but ugggh (2 stars)
Only 1 out of 3 worthwhile nights for me, don't recall not finding enjoyable music somewhere on a given night last year, maybe I just got lucky/unluck on the nights I went?
