today. i nutted on myself like twice during the first cupla songs. word up tortoise owns
your ass in case u didn't hear or have forgotten. that's my word!

I can listen to all of those as background music, not stand upright and watch them perform for an hour+, though

I have my doubts that you stand upright no matter what you are listening to.

Saw them for the second time a couple of months back. Was awesome as one would expect, but Grails opened and they were even more jaw droppingly good.
