It said here that Silverchair had a devoted, thriving fan base, despite limited touring and declining radio play in America. But I had no idea that Saturday night’s Fillmore at the TLA crowd would be that into it. Several minutes before the band took the stage, chants of “Sil-Ver-Chair, Sil-Ver-Chair” drowned out the house music, and the sold-out crowd roared when the Australian trio took the stage.
I'm meeting my boyfriend's parents on Friday.

God, we're so sick of
that we want to kill anyone and everyone that
makes a "something on a something" joke. But then we realized that
there was no way we could ever win this fight, and, hell, if you can't
beat them, we might as well join them. And with that, you have the
theme of this weeks' Gothamist network post.
Austinist makes it easy for
us, with Candidate
on a Civic Building,
on a Blank, and
on a Freeway (warning: sad).
Can we force SFist into our Noun
in a Noun box? Hell, yeah! We got us a
on a Laptop,
on a Plate, and the
on a Tear.
Phillyist brings us
on a Set of Stairs (or not),
Towels on a Phillyist and
Benefit on a Thursday.
We always look forward to
week is no exception as one of our favorite -ist columnists, Shanghai
Fag Hag Tiffany, tells us about
on a Night Out. Stick around for
Animals on a Limited Lease, an
on a Shanghai Street and a
on a Rampage.
Oh, no! It's
on a Listserv! DCist also
features Logo
on a Boob,
Side Standers on a S**tlist,
R. Rees on a Furlough From The Nuthouse,
on a Break, and
on a Sign.
What does LAist have for us? Oh,
there's Dogg
on a Mike, a
on a Generation,
Style on a Double Double, and
Boots on a Bunch of People.

Houstonist is full of
Houstonny goodness, what with
Sentiments on a Wall,
Plans on a Table (from which they can, apparently, never be
removed), Penguins
on a Freeway Again (warning: still sad), and
Chicks on a Shortened Tour.
Seattlest does a public
service by pointing out some
on a Child Molester's Identity, rocks out to
on a Stage, sees
on a US Tour, and folks flying out of Sea-Tac (hahahahaha)
on a Plane.
Oh, Torontoist, why so
cranky? They
on a Lame Movie, and it's pretty damn funny. Also:
Bush on a Billboard,
Theft on a Guarded Block, and
Parade on a Deadline.
Chicagoist is
the
the best
time
as they Muse
on a Fest. Oh, god, it's
Francis (allegedly non-consensually) on a Drunk Woman. How about
Beloved
DJ Not on a Radio? Finally, look at
on a City-Wide Scale.
We round out our week of Something on a Something with some links from
Gothamist. They bring us a
nightmarish tale of
on
a Train
Platform. Easier to take are
on a Crime Wave,
Flower on a Web Cam, a
Leopard on a Mission (thankfully, NOT sad), and, last but
certainly not least,
Hype on a September Evening.

Saturday Night, Phillyist crawled out of our relatively cool, dark apartment and faced the August weather in order to check out Smog at the North Star.
Phillyist was going to make a weather-related pun based on indie band Smog's name, but frankly it's too hazy, hot and humid to think of anything clever(besides which, we're sure it's all been done before).
