Friday at 1:45pm. There are 5 bands playing in this slot so lots of choices. First up is this band out of Brooklyn. Pitchfork says:
Start with Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, add one part Robert Smith, two parts Depeche Mode, stir in Kraftwerk-flavored sprinkles...these art-school Brooklynites might have equally fond memories of 2000s indie-dance artists like Cut Copy, Bloc Party, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs as their ’80s luminaries.
I like all those bands! They've also covered Pixies and The Replacements. Sounds good to me. Here is their KEXP studio performance. They were in town for Levitation Fest last year.
"Wounds of Love" starts with a very minimal Kraftwerk sound but it picks up.
"The Wall & I" has a New Order vibe. I like it, too.
This one is very retro. I really like them.

I gave it a try. Not for me. We can meet up afterwards.
Edit - I liked them live. The Brosfresh were fun though too.
