Missed the first band on, but we did end up catching the next two bands, the first being a loud and energetic pop punk band called Stealing O'Neal. They looked ridiculously young. The lead singer was doing his best Adam Lazzara (from Taking Back Sunday) impression, with his crazy all-over-the-stage moves - quite dangerous since the stage is *tiny* and they had five guys and assorted instruments all squished on there - and the microphone lead twirling around his neck. I think the most memorable song for me was actually a cover, an acoustic rendition of 'I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor' (from the Arctic Monkeys).
Planet of the Stereos were good! A rocking indie band, with some really catchy songs; I particularly liked 'Wasting Time', and 'Delicate Girl', both of which managed to sound sweeter and fuller live. I was surprised to hear they'd only been around two years or so, since they played well together.
