THE BIG PINK...thank you Coachella.

[Dalen]

Really excited that they are playing! "A Brief History Of Love" was one of my favorite albums of 2009.

Anyone caught them live? How are they?

[Caligula]

Nice,nothing more.

[krk67]

They are tight live, but they don't move around much. They like strobes. They have a cool chick drummer. All of the band members are really solid. I love them, but wish I could have seen their faces better. It may have just been the venue (Empty Bottle) and it's lack of stage options. I can't wait to see them at Metro here in Chicago.

They are one of the bands I'm looking forward to since I really wish there was more sac on the lineup. There's a good amount on the top tier -- I just wish there were smaller bands with it.

[shotglass75]

Just got tickets to their show in Chicago in March with A Place to Bury Strangers. Should be great

[soundgal]

I've seen them twice (El Rey, Detroit Bar) and the Detroit Bar KILLED. It's very dark lighting and I loved it. They don't mess around. They are there to play music. Going to see them again at El Rey 3/9. They are playing San Diego right before Coachella with Place to Bury Strangers. They are really cool guys.

[tessalasset]

I absolutely loved them at the El Rey in November. I remember them being even better than I expected. I was pleasantly surprised. Very loud, but not so distorted that you can't even tell what song they're playing. They sounded great for their first show in LA ever.

[kroqken]

They are a good band, but I was upset that the lead singer in an interview said that he hated the Kinks and the Beatles and added "fuck the Beatles." I respect him if he is not a fan of their music but he did not have to do dissing them.

[shotglass75]

kroqken... are you fucking serious or are you really like that?

[kroqken]

Like "what", the Big Pink singer really did say those things. In context, he brought up those bands because he is British and he was making a point that other British bands try to sound likje the Kinks and the Beatles and he does not. I am a voracious reader and I remember that interview and, henceforth, wanted to share that with all of you.

[tessalasset]

Shotglass, you've been around for three years now. Are you really still not schooled in the anomaly that is Ken Scalir?

Even I later get "poster's regret" after some of my posts, and I am the one that did them! Also, thanks for spelling my last name correctly, you are a saint.

[tessalasset]

I had to google it. I was about to type Ken Schiavo.

Naw, I am not a brain dead corpse on life suport that the right wing was intent on saving despite the wishes of her former husband. Wow, I almost forgot about Terri Schiavo.

[faxman75]

The Big Pink song "brief history of love" sounds like a rip off of "maps" by the Yeah Yeah Yeah's. Anyone else hear it?

[Electric Feel]

this band <3 <3 <3

[flowbee]

They sound pretty f'n good live at least based on the videos I've watched. Surely won't miss them.

[Miroir Noir]

New single and video.

[shotglass75]

Awesome. Just got A Brief History of Love on Vinyl last week and made me realize how much I want to hear more from this band. Perfect timing.

[Mr. Porter]

I'm craving new music by these guys. I couldn't catch their set in 2010 but a 2012 appearance seems likely with this new album in January.

I'll look out for new material. The 2010 coach performance highlighted 2 great songs amid an ear bleeding half hour that challenged spinal tap as the world's loudest band.

[canexplain]

Yea i saw Big Pink, hummm wait, different band. I like mine better .... cr****

[sacleonard]

I really enjoyed their 2010 set. Looking forward to their new CD.

[Mr.Trent]

looking forward to seeing them in Glasgow soon

hopefully I'll have a chance to hear some new material before that though
