Low mid-tier alternative band…I think when I saw them live at the local radio festival they were mid afternoon on a side stage.

Frankly, that's being generous.

i agree that it's being generous. If i was seeing a concert and looked at the poster, Blink 182 or someone would have been headlining, so they had the top billing and HUGE letters... Sugarcult would have been in the bands where they git 30 bands in the same amount of space as the headline at a 10 font.

When I saw Green Day on the American Idiot tour, Sugarcult was the first of three bands.

My memories of their set was them playing to a stadium full of people still trying to find their seat and the singer taking a hit of a joint from somebody in the crowd.

This was September 2004. If you ask me, being on a tour that scale (coupled with their sync placements in Burnout 3 that same year) was probably their “shot” to become synonymous with the genre.

Is it?

Start Static sold 300,000 copies. What tier would you put that in?
