Animal Collective Mysteriously Announce New Album?

[wmgaretjax]

setlist will likely be the same.

[dorkfish]

So Sun Araw, kinda boring, yeah?

I wasn't blown away, but I wouldn't label it as boring by any means.

[wmgaretjax]

i loved it. but then again, i'm a total sucker for the 70s psych cum dub thing they are doing.

[send me ctrpllrs]

They played the songs in the same order then? I don't mind the same songs, I would like a different order though.

I loved Sun Araw as well.

Say hi tonight, i'll be in an OFWGKTA shirt and blue jacket.

[GoodGirlGalaxy]

5ish songs in 45 minutes, kinda winning.

[GeezrRckr]

Is "winning" still trendy to say....now that the dope has completely cratered and all? I don't know what's hip with you kids, since I'm old and shit. Just curious.

[TallGuyCM]

No. It was funny for about 5 minutes. People still saying it makes me want to slit their throats.

[GeezrRckr]

Well, in all fairness...you and I have a higher curmudgeon level so.....

[TallGuyCM]

In general, and this isn't directed at GoodGirlGalaxy, people just in general don't know when to give things up. They overdo shit, drive it into the ground, without having any kind of sense of when it's gone overboard.

"Swak Swak" -Ray J

EDIT: That's Ray J's version of "bi-winning" and that one hasn't gotten old.

[PotVsKtl]

[GeezrRckr]

Exactly.

Most of my aversion was due to the horrible mixing and sound in Petaluma. Does Sun Araw always sound like Bollywood vocals? Because that's what the speakers were fuzzily throwing my way.

the mix was bad I agree... but yeah, kind of:

[dorkfish]

by the way, Drew or anyone else that knows, the visuals in Petaluma (and presumably the rest of the tour sans Coachella) weren't done by Danny Perez, right? They kinda had Avey's sister's look to them at points.

[GeezrRckr]

Right, not Danny (you would KNOW if it was him). They were done by the guys in Black Dice. And, expect them to be in a higher resolution at better venues....for sure at Coachella.

[wmgaretjax]

i think eric copeland (from black dice) is the one actually "performing" the visuals. he was at the show on sunday.

[Neutral Milk Hotel]

That was just...AAAAH. More later.

[send me ctrpllrs]

So glad I got to see two of those shows. Definitely enjoyed last night more, despite dealing with a few idiots in the crowd. They will sound even better come saturday.

Matt, it was awesome to enjoy the show with you. Jared, sorry I missed you, but I have no clue what you look like. You going to Coachella? You should stop by our camp if so, it'll be easy to find. Let you know how if you're going.

[seyrnon]

were there any changes in the setlist for arcata or redway?

[dorkfish]

From what I saw on Collected Animals, not really.

[cutterbutter]

Just realized they get 70 min at Coachella. Amazing. But is 25 minutes really enough time to break down their amount of gear, to set up for another band with an insane amount of gear?

[dorkfish]

the AF stage will probably be setup already. No chance it takes 25 minutes to turnover, though.

[GoodGirlGalaxy]

With 70 minutes, they'll only have to cut two or three songs from their set list. Win!

Also, it was mostly AC and some lackies doing the removal of gear at Petaluma and it took them an hour. I'm sure Coachella has lackies of their own to help lug stuff off stage.

BTW, which one of you is Jared?

[dorkfish]

wmgaretjax

[GeezrRckr]

Lots of lackies....no self-imposed slave work that night.

All that shit will be on rollers....shouldn't take too long. But, who fucking cares...both bands will get their full sets in.

[wmgaretjax]

Jared, sorry I missed you, but I have no clue what you look like. You going to Coachella? You should stop by our camp if so, it'll be easy to find. Let you know how if you're going.

i didn't make it out there had too much work to grapple with. i won't be at coachella either unfortunately, but i'm sure our paths will cross eventually.

[nuNRG]

Still waiting for some sort of Friday show announcement for LA. 1% likely isn't it?

[ruskinator]

Can anyone tell me what time AC will start playing at Great American tonight?
