That's a pretty sick mix. And it appears they're big fans of Mr. Oizo, Daft Punk, Basement Jaxx and Kraftwerk. Can't say as though I blame them either.

[choice cat]

i hate the fact that there LA appearance this summer is at Hard Summer, and not at a more intimate setting. crossing my fingers for a 2nd date.

I know, especially after hearing them in their Essential Mix that they prefer small venues.

[choice cat]

yeah when i heard them say that on the essential mix i imagined seeing them at a place like the smell or the echo.

[dank bud ftw]

the twelves essential mix is fire. i would be so down

You snooze you lose on not seeing them in Venice or San Diego last month...

i trust you'll make the right decision.

I RARELY switch shows when a ticket has been bought already. Unless its Radiohead vs whoever, not happening.

They also played in Santa Monica.

They played in santa monica with a ~300 person capacity...somewhat hard getting tickets.

Not really. I got mine right after Coachella ended. Word got out and it sold out 2 days later, thats the only reason it was hard to get in. Also, they undersold the place on purpose.

[Gribbz]

Since Coachella 2010 is over....

BUMP

[Gribbz]

Video from the Thursday show. Such a blast.

[greghead]

They were really good in SF Friday night. An absurdly good time.

[le cab]

THIS. NEEDS. TO. HAPPEN.
kthnxsbye.

[ADrunkPoet]

The Twelves in the Sahara between 4-6. PLEASE
Following or preceding Green Velvet = Epic.

[tmac]

^ yes please. <3 ron

[spiggums]

Their US booking agent lists them as available for April 15, 20, 21, 22, & 23 http://windishagency.com/artists/the_twelves

Based off that, it seems they're trying to schedule extra dates around a booking on the 16th or 17th.

I'm thinking it's pretty damned likely that booking is Coachella.

those shows were all 21+ if I'm not mistaken. at the time I was still 18.

Nah, they'd be fucking perfect at the 2ManyDJs Saturday night slot from last year. That's what gets my vote.

Unrealistic in my opinion.

In an ideal world, sure.

But that's not going to happen. They're nowhere near that level yet. The only way I could see a remote chance of that is if there's another Tiesto-level DJ performing on the main stage. And even in that case, it's far from likely.

[loopy]

I would love to see these guys. just from the few songs I heard, they kinda remind me of aeroplane, who were great last year. can't see them closing out sahara, though. I like the 4-6 idea.
