"Life was charmed but without politics or religion...the life of peace, the blurring between dream life and real life...yet, I think there was a trade-off somewhere along the line. I think the price we paid for our golden life was an inability to fully believe in love; instead we gained an irony that scorched everything it touched. And I wonder if this irony is the price we paid for the loss of god."

So, the Other Minds Fest and Noise Pop conflict.
Hmmmmm; too bad
That IS a pretty great week of music in SF
JT
indeed
although Coachella's fest looks even better: NineInchNails, Wilco, Aracade Fire, Bauhaus, Weezer, Bright Eyes and that's for starters
hell Coldplay is even doing a set there
I agree Coachella has an impressive and awesome lineup; but the Noise Pop show is more tempting to me. Here's a couple of reasons why:
Venue - more intimate club setting(s) in SF compared to the Woodstock-esque paradigm at Coachella with all of its horribleness. Ya know, I'm old, what can I say.
The Acts - Coachella (primarily) is featuring groups that have "made it", as compared to Noise Pop featuring bands who are a year or two away, if ever...so, it's the opportunity to catch these bands BEFORE they hit it huge.
Besides, Smoosh will play Noise Pop and NOT Coachella. I could give a shit seeing Coldplay or even Nine Inch Nails.
Anyway...
