On June 28th, 2008 Icelandic superstars Björk and Sigur Rós will team up to perform a free concert in their hometown of Reykjavik. The Náttúra concert is a bid to raise awareness of the destruction of Iceland's natural landscape, and will be webcast live from from 7pm to 12pm GMT (3pm—8pm EST) on Nat Geo Music.

I've seen Björk a few times and she puts on an incredible show so say the least. Sigur Rós is great as well. I saw them at the Pavilion in Boston a couple years ago and it was like nothing I have ever seen or heard, spectacular.

I'm sure she is great for those who like her. That would not be me. And I did go to see Sigur Rós and I fell a sleep about 10 minutes in.

Re: Björk and Sigur Rós concert webcast

she I totally understand they both of them are not for everyone. I really enjoy both bands. Björk to me is on another level as far as being innovative. Her melodies are genius and the production on her albums are amazing.

Do you get into electronic stuff much?

Not tons, but I do listen to a lot of minimalism, which at times can be similar. I do like the Postal Service a bit, but I never really latched on to the genre.
