FYF Fest 2012

[hawkingvsreeve]

Sorry, Brandon. I'll get it out here before I see her next.

She probably wouldnt be phased. She hears it from me all the time.

[Gribbz]

She hears it from me all the time.

High five, bro. I don't care one way or the other about his music... Oberst is just an insufferable human being.

[LickTheLizzard]

You're hurting my feelings Matt.

[Gribbz]

I had to get back at you for what you said about Spiritualized.

[LickTheLizzard]

Fair enough.

[nosurprises12]

I emailed Fucked Up's booking agent, as they were listed on both days while other FYF artists represented by the agency were listed on one specific day, and he told me they'll be playing on Saturday.

[bmack86]

Damn. I was really hoping for 2 sets from them.

[Spooks]

Damn. I was really hoping for 2 sets from them.

What do you mean 2 sets? Some bands play 2 sets @ FYF?

ps Aren't they playing a free show that Monday anyway?

[bmack86]

I was hoping against hope that one day would be David Comes to Life and the other day a regular Fucked Up set. That's never been a thing at FYF before, but a boy can dream.

[dorkfish]

Well, if they're playing Saturday at FYF and the free Labor Daze festival in Visalia on Monday, then Saturday night and Sunday are still open for any after shows or other LA gigs.

[Gribbz]

Anyone remember when the after shows were announced last year?

[Spooks]

I think they did this @ LPR in NY last year. It was only one time thing....

[bmack86]

I really just want Fucked Up to do a Year of the set. It'd go about 2-3 hours, Damian's voice would go out super early, all the hardcore kids would bitch about it, and it'd probably be the only time during Fucked Up's career where you see Mike Haliechuk happy on stage.

"Next week. There will be more and I promise you will be pleased. #FYFFEST"

From FYF's Twitter.

[spence]

More bands? The conflicts were going to be bad already

[nosurprises12]

Probably the comedy tent lineup.

[suprefan]

Anyone remember when the after shows were announced last year?

Next month.

[JorgeC]

i hope it's the day by day breakdown and/or more bands. but it's probably a price hike -___-

[schoolofruckus]

Day-by-day would be nice.

[dorkfish]

and it'd probably be the only time during Fucked Up's career where you see Mike Haliechuk happy on stage.

I still doubt that he would be all that happy. I just don't think that he has it in himself to show joy on stage.

So quick question has anyone seen cursive lately. I was a big fan of theirs back in the day not really impressed with happy hollow and didnt really like the new single, but I was hoping they put on a great and play a bunch of domestica, is this a reach and should I skip them most likely or do they put on a helluva show

[bmack86]

I saw them at Amoeba recently. They did an acoustic set so it was probably atypical, but they had three songs from The Ugly Organ and two from Domestica. I think one from Burst and Bloom as well, but I may be making that up. The new stuff is also better live (And Happy Hollow was the same way.)

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

I saw them while they toured Happy Hallows and they were fantastic. Reports on here from very recent tours have been very enthusiastic too. they're a great live band. I recommend giving the whole new album a spin, too, it's much better than the extremely forgettable Mama, I'm Swollen and Happy Hallows.

[Gribbz]

Next month.

Thanks. I would love a Black Mountain solo gig.

[gillster17]

Alright well as long as there is balance in their set Ill probably go by and see them for a bit.... i love driftwood and herald frankenstein soo crossing my fingers for those songs thanks!

Thanks just saw your post too, awesome ill try out the new album the single left me very underwhelmed though awhile back but ill give it a listen. Also drinkey keep the post punk hardcore thread alive I love going through that.

i dont know if they have ever played herald frankenstein live, would be kind of odd

[kreutz2112]

Good fucking god I love Burst and Bloom. Hadn't listened to it in so long.

[LickTheLizzard]

Yes! I was so excited to get the marbled vinyl on Record Store Day. Great album!

Not impressed. Would love to see "Friends and Acquaintances" and "Recluse"
