So yesterday was the MTVU Campus Invasion tour-- 6 whole hours of music. Bands ranged from Gym Class Heroes to Augustana to Dashboard Confessional. I was quite disappointed when I found out The Shins weren't going to be at the Philly show. Overall, the show was disappointing as a whole. Augustana was the only good live band. Some, like dashboard, should just never leave the studio, because they just make fools of themselves 0n stage. I mean, the guy was freakin tone deaf in the opening song. You do NOT start the show with complicated vocals. That's just ignorance. But yeah, in addition to music there were free giveaways like candy and massages and make-up-- all new products looking for promotion of course.
Although not-so-good music, the show was for a good cause. All proceeds went to Darfur, so it was still worth going and supporting the cause. There are plenty of stops left on the tour, so if you're into the whole dashboard scene (or if the Shins are there!!!!) check it out, support Darfur, and get free stuff : P
Maybe next year the tour will be better. A little bit of The Format and Motion City??? Eh??? Sounds good to me.
