Oh they sound like an episode of Eastenders when they get going.
LET ME IN BABE I'M SORRY
NO FUCK OFF YOU'LL HIT ME AGAIN
NO I WON'T I PROMISE I WON'T
(etc)

I'm currently wishing I had 5.1 speakers because my 2.1 ones are not doing Rilo justice.

Fucking love them.
I saw them twice a couple of years ago when they were touring... front row both times. Jenny Lewis is ridiculously beautiful up close.

I've seen em too. She's a darling.
Did you see her tour with those twins? They gave out a song sheet! It was ace.

No I didn't :( couldn't afford it if I remember rightly.
They had Ewen McGuinness supporting them the first time and he was pretty good, and the second time Grand Ole Party who I wasn't overly fond of.

Ebay
Get a good pair of Logitechs. Although, if it's volume youre after, a good power set of 2.1 will knock the crap out of any cheap 5.1s. Or, find yourself a theatrey friend who knows their sound kit and get them to build you one - had a mate back home who did it and had something stupid like 200w per channel, and a 1.2k sub. Sounded fantastic, but he said he wanted something bigger, but didn't want to run so much power through the mains.

I've had a couple of techy friends in my time
including one who keeps telling me to come and visit him and his Mrs (they came to see me and then-Flatmate a couple of months ago) so I may raid his kit.

I like the idea of subjecting the neighbours to extremely loud Guns N' Roses.
