From last.fm:
Say Hi (formerly Say Hi To Your Mom) is a Seattle, Washington-based indie rock group run by eric elbogen. Droning, guitar- and synth-driven ditties should finally earn him a reputation alongside Nada Surf and Clem Snide as one of his borough's more noteworthy indie-rock acts. But really, it's the quirky lyricism that most distinguishes the band. They have recorded four albums as Say Hi To Your Mom: Discosadness (2002), Numbers & Mumbles (2004), Ferocious Mopes (2005), Impeccable Blahs (2006). Read more about Say Hi on Last.fm.

The Big Strong Men
From Minneapolis
First show since since January 15, 2011 • First show supporting a touring headliner • 14th show on MN Live's calendar since April 8, 2010
From last.fm:
The Big Strong Men’s songs straddle the line between partying and resignation, bursting at the seams with ambivalence. It’s rock & roll primed for dancing but built for transcendence. People have said they sound like the Band, Ben Folds Five, the Cure, Herman’s Hermits, the Old 97’s, Phoenix, Steely Dan, They Might Be Giants, and Wilco. It depends on when you’re listening. The band recorded a little EP called Don’t Go Too Far that was released November 2010. Read more about The Big Strong Men on Last.fm.
