    The Joy Formidable will be chatting and playing a track live on tinychat tomorrow.

    With just a week to go 'til we finish our North American tour and as we really enjoyed the brief webchat we did in SXSW; we've decided to do another one this Saturday, tomorrow at 2pm Kansas City time (Central time) ( That'll be 8pm in the UK, 3pm on the East Coast, 12pm on the West Coast). You can log in to the chat at Tinychat.com/TheJoyFormidable and we'll be performing a track, answering questions, talking nonsense, the usual.
    Wouldn't it be rather cool if we could get some acts to do a track or two on tinychat in the run up to the 2012 festival (IE after lineup announcement), maybe just from their rehearsal space/another show.

    This reminded me of seeing Bob Mould early in the Gobi a few years ago. Loud as hell, amazing set, and setting the bar for the rest of the day. They were fantastic. My friend just saw them in Pittsburgh, where they played for less than 75 people (much different than playing Coachella).

    yeah I thought it was a little odd when she tried jamming the guitar up the bassist's ass though.

    He probably desires it after changing lanes without signaling before the show.

    And "Endtapes" is such a great song. But if bought from iTunes, I will have to suffer the awful album cover art popping up in my screensaver.

    I was lucky enough to meet them on my birthday in 2012. They were extremely nice and approachable.

    The Joy Formidable does no wrong, and I'm impatiently awaiting their new album next week. It's been getting great reviews by several of the music rags.
