Hell, there are bands whose entire careers were destroyed because of Nevermind. Having signed multi-record deals with labels prior to the success of Nevermind, only to have their labels decide the...
Anyone who was either a: alive then or b: knows the business will tell you that Nevermind completely changed the landscape. That album is what brought mainstream attention to the sound that made...
Show's not sold out yet. There were still tickets available at the door at Club Nokia in December (which is larger, but only by 300 people)... I would wager that as long as you show up early you'll...
To think they were going to sell a large number of tickets to two nights at Avalon was ambitious at best. Delusional at worst. My understanding is that it was only really set up cause they were going...
While I enjoy the album, I also completely agree with this statement. Disco is alive and well, and Daft Punk are not the figureheads on that ship.
Out of curiosity, can anyone speak to VIP tickets?
How much more are they generally (I'm not seeing any info on VIP pricing on the website)? Is the separate entrance and liquor bars worth it?
...
The New York Post isn't necessarily the most reliable source of news. You need only to look at the full page photo of the Boston bombing "suspects" for a recent example.
I mean, I'm not hating on Pink or commenting on her popularity... but how do you get that from an article that comments on an article that mentions Pink's position in an album chart... which Daft...
Aside from TEED, all solid suggestions (not hating on TEED, just never experienced a DJ set from him so I can't comment on his quality). Still upset that I wasn't able to see Jess kill shit this...
That whole thing (no need to quote the entire post) sounds really interesting.
I was DJing a friend's birthday party today and her pool deck looks out towards that hill/stairs. We thought it odd...
out of curiosity... did you go to the 21 night stand shows in LA? And if so, how are these comparing?
I can imagine the disappointment... one extreme straight to another.
Has Morgan Geist ever done a set as Storm Queen?
That said... a Metro Area set would do quite nicely!
So he hates himself and is hoping someone else will fix it for him?
Weren't they supposed to be getting back together a year or so ago?
(or some bastardization of that concept with less than a full stable of original members?)
Has Fugazi changed their policy of not playing shows with covers over $5?
Sweet. Didn't care much for the last album, but the new one has been produced by Stuart Price, which has me intrigued!
Can't say anything about the rest of the list, but Guisado's is a must.
I almost want to go to this just so I can stalk Phil Kieran. I want to corner that man and find out why there was never a second Alloy Mental album! Granted there are certainly other reasons to go......
They're just about the same size. Echoplex may be slightly smaller. But also with shitty sight lines for about 33% of the crowd on a sold out night.
oh snap. If they keep playing But Not Tonight on this tour, I'll be a happy man!
I really need to get back to that festival! One of the best festivals I've ever been to. Right up there with Coachella, except I'll take the heat at Coachella over the rain in Ireland. But still....
aside from the issues with "Should Be Higher", it was good. Dave was peacocking around on stage the way only he does. Band sounded solid. Although I'd argue Martin's guitar was a bit too overpowering...
so they respond to a couple years of shit ticket sales by pushing forward with one of the shittiest lineups that could possibly be assembled?
I'm not quite sure I understand their business...
That's just it. Sure it'd be better to have some variety. But if that's going to be a repeat, it sure as shit aint a bad repeat to have.
Perhaps. All I know is that I thought it was rough during the Letterman show and it was no better tonight. Be interested to see what the setlists end up looking like when they tour (for this and many...
I really feel they shouldn't be doing Shouldn't Be Higher live. It's a good song from the new album. And I could see it being the third single. But Dave struggles with it live.
Yeah I see it listed as a second date now... Which answers that... It wasn't so much how it's selling (although, let's face it... it's not likely in any danger of selling out... Add in that the...
Completely understand where you're coming from there... While that makes sense... I just have reason to suspect this may not be the case.
It appears that either they've added a second Presets/Dragonette date on May 23rd at Avalon, or the Tuesday night event is moving (I suspect it might be the latter) to that Thursday:...
"long shot" is putting it lightly!
Been to two outdoor "mini-concerts" for the Kimmel show... Robyn and The Afghan Whigs... I want to say that yeah... each time it was four or five songs tops... And a lot of waiting around before...
Looks like the buddy planning on going with me to the Kimmel taping on Wednesday isn't going to be able to make it.
So if anyone wants to meet up with me and be my +1, I've got two "priority"...
Really need to try his new Tex Mex place too... this is probably a better thread for this discussion: http://www.coachella.com/forum/showthread.php?41408-Best-bars-in-Los-Angeles
And the crowd would be so small, it would make the crowd for Hurts the other year look massive!
Or also their sit down restaurant, Blue Cow Kitchen, is right down the street from there. Great food and a full bar!
I was amused cause my facebook feed has been "Daft Punk" non-stop since last Friday... Single is released... haven't seen a peep!
The new song is utter shit... but still... if they were to tour, I'd be there in a heartbeat!
The Rolling Stone interview stated they only used like one or two samples on the entire album...
I just want to take a moment to say "Christ I hate Gary Richards!"
That said, Cajmere was dope, although he went a bit more techno than I was hoping for... but I still wasn't mad (Spasmolytic...
I hear that you and your band have sold your guitars and bought turntables
Released yesterday, actually!
Just got an email announcing a Simian Mobile Disco live album showing them playing in the US at "Fuck Yeh" on August 25th...
And I'm going to go ahead and apologize, as looking back this came off kind of bitchy... which was not my intention!
This isn't about "keeping up", this is about knowing your history!

Been a long time since I've seen Mr Jones do a Cajmere set... But...
You missed the important thing there:
Cajmere!
Were there not any full bars this year outside of VIP?
The thing is... Bernard Sumner has always looked like that. He's just got no stage presence... Meanwhile Andy McClusky just embraces that he's a dork and has a blast with it...
