The Ataris

I don't like their style of music at all, and truthfully, their cover of "Boys of Summer" was the only song of their's that I had actually heard before they played at Wakefest last night here in Kelowna.

I have to admit, they put on a great show. Like I said, I don't like the music very much, but when it is that loud and you're in the middle of the mosh pit, you can't help but get pumped.

Seriously, I can't listen to screaming and whining about useless crap. They should have taken a hint from Don H. and done more music like that, cause really they did a great job with that song.

Really Really Really crap band. Their best song is about 20 seconds long, and it's about how the music they play on the radio really sucks.

OH THE IRONY.

Yeah man... I'd say their best song is the cover of "Boys of Summer"... whatever you need to do to gain success I guess...

heh. They really didn't need to "gain success" by doing a cover to get on the radio though because they have a following already. Surprisingly a lot of people follow the Ataris religiously (ok. not surprising. I like a few of their songs). But they've been around a lot longer than their one cover song on the radio. The radio didn't bring them any success. (heh. pretty funny since radio is the industry I'm heading into in about a year after I finish school...I'm supposed to be praising the radio. not knocking it.)

Anyways, live music all the way.
