Song played as the band come on stage.

Looking for some help. Theres a song that is played before the band come out on stage and I dont know it. I think they played it before the KOKO gig or this year at reading festival. It was also played a few songs before they come on at Brixton this week.

Now thats just about as vague as can be but I dont really know much mopre about it. Oh, and its not Ruby Soho which i know theyve come on to cos i know that.

Its kinda punky i think but not really fast.

ok, ive just youtubed it (couldve before i guess) and found out its fugazi. Song?

The Fugazi song they've been playing as the band walks out is Waiting Room. If you look at the Lollapalooza 2012 footage, you can hear it really well. In my opinion, it is an incredible song and works perfectly for this.

here is my personal favorite version of fugazi playing waiting room in a live setting. captures the vibe of the band and song so well.

could be

Sabotage - Beastie Boys!

They walked on to sabotage when I saw them in Zurich this summer.

Thanks peeps. It was waiting room. Nah i know beasties like the back of my hand. they came on to sabotage at a gig i saw too, that may have been KOKO. tribute to MCA i guess cos it was soon after.

Hopefully someone can help me with this,

I saw them in September at the Fox and just a few days ago at the Warfield. As is standard, there was music playing over the PA before the band came out. Songs I remember include Born to Run, Black, Ruby Soho, Rockaway Beach, and I believe some Dylan. At both shows there was a song that played over the PA that I really liked, but didn't recognize and was not able to Shazam or Google.

The song reminded me a little bit of bands like Sunny Day Real Estate, but a little more upbeat. I could have the lyrics totally wrong, but the chorus sounded something like this:

I know you
Come by tonight

I could be absolutely totally wrong, but that's what I heard. I also think the bridge mentioned something about "stars." I've tried Googling various lyrics, but nothing has come up, I can still here the melody in my head, and I would really like to find it.

So if anybody knows what song this is, could you help me out?
