wanted to but $50 wasn't worth it to me .. not for Champion's Square and you also may have to deal with the weather. plus I like them but not a super fan or anything. bet you'll be able to hear them wailing from Poydras anyways.

This is the first real major show they have hosted. Should be interesting. I may go but have a lot to do for work.

They've had other big ones - I think the collection of reviews amounts to "better than expected but had low expectations"

Not going, but would like to

Sigur Ros is the most polarizing live show I know of

I know people that swear it's like a religious experience seeing them live

And I've heard of people falling asleep 2 songs in

I saw them at a festival one time. I really like their album Agaetis Byrjun but damn the show was fricking boring as hell. I have a group of friends going. If the weather holds up I may attend. Definitely not wasting my money/time on a rainy show with a hit or miss act. Plan on going all out for the Arctic Monkeys show on Saturday though

They were ok tonight. Excellent stage production. They need less Icelandic mourning and more jamz.

( ) is my favorite album of theirs.

That was their pinnacle IMO.
