Their great when their sound is produced to the point of sounding great, but you have to be able to back it up in front of a crowd. Jeff...gotta love $13 CD's. I remember when I was much younger and having to truly commit to a CD purchase because they would run $30.

Although I just bought the latest by My Morning Jacket for $13 I tend to support bands in person... umm and lots of em! I've gone months and even over a year without spending money in a CD Store. Having a decent home theater I enjoy buying the odd Live Music DVD. Jeff I’ll join that movement also.

I'd much rather spend money on a live show than on an overpriced CD. But in my mind, that's where real musicians flourish anyway, at the live show. Anybody can spit out a pitch-corrected over-produced album. I’m the same way… I’d much rather spend money on a live show than on an overpriced CD.
