Roots vs Lily Allen vs Black Keys

[bwell]

This is probably my biggest undecided bonflict, so what are everyone's thoughts on this?

I <3 Lily Allen and the Black Keys, yet I hear the Roots are a must see although i don't really listen to them. Has anyone seen any or all of these live that can persuade me or offer some thoughts one way or another?

[oatmealschnappz]

Out of those 3, I would have to go with The Roots.
Plus, that way you can claim a good spot for Tool.

Black Keys 10 out of 10 times for me. Those guys rock!

[chandler]

I'm gonna start out w/Lily Allen for a few, then head over to The Black Keys for a little while, and then go hit up the end of the Roots set to try to get a good spot for Tool.

No offense to these three, but I'm checking out Manu Chao. I've heard unreal things about his live performance, to the point where even if you don't like his recorded stuff, you'll come away from the show saying, "That was unbelievable."

[sinkfloridasink]

I think I'm doing 1/2 Lily Allen and 1/2 The Roots.

[famousblueraincoat]

Manu without a question. All of the other three are quality, but Manu puts on a ridiculous live show and he is rarely in the States.

ive seen lily allen perform "live" on conan and london live and a few other tv shows and she had no energy and a weak voice.. i was kinda dissapointed... ehh

[sang_xcx]

[Moe Train]

I'm bouncing from Manu to Lily! Fuck... I can't WAIT to see Manu!!!!

[Pet Donkey]

I watching most of the Black Keys then going to meet up with my wife at Lily Allen.

[VoiceOfReason]

Torn between The Roots and The Black Keys, but I think I'm leaning toward The Black Keys.

[minneapolisaroo]

I've seen Manu Chao before and...well...wow. He is increadable. But I will be front and center for the Roots at this show, I need my hip-hop fix!!!

[pat5507]

the roots then
Manu Chao

[lakai2788]

^ me as well

[unplugdacusticaz]

The Roots by far. I don't even like rap, but there's something different about the way they lay it down.

[cockadoodleroo]

The Roots played Spring Party Weekend at my school and let me tell you that it will turn into a dance party for a good portion of the show.

It will also have you crying tears of euphoria during their cover of Masters of War set to the Star Spangled Banner.

black keys baby! I GOTS ROCK IN MY BLOOD!

[melikecheese]

I have seen the Black Keys 5 times now and I would not miss this show for anything. They are that good.
