Random Pitchfork Darling Talk LXXXIII

[lazarus]

Bless your heart.

Did they get a decent crowd turnout? How was the overall response?

 

[corianderstem]

Cori, did you make sure he's a fan of the correct Elbow albums?

Well, he is familiar with (and loves) the BBC version of The Seldom-Seen Kid, and that's all I needed to know.

If he could tell you we're obsessed with them, perhaps he was just being diplomatic?

They only came up once throughout the conversation, and I didn't tell him I loved them until after he made his initial pronouncement.

Crowd was really huge and loved every minute of it. What and Which stages are dark on Thursday night, so it's all eyes on the tents. They made a believer out of me and everyone else.

 

[Danny Boy]

Cori, don't do anything rash. We are sending out a team to properly vet this guy.

Great to hear.

I feel like a proud father.

 

[bono_212]

Oh shit, Ice on the Dune is out today too?

GTFO of this thread, Cobbler

Oh wait, sorry DB.

I won't rest unless you handle it personally.

 

[cobl04]

Ha, that's JB HiFi too. But yes, as I've mentioned many times, the price we have to pay for shit is ridiculous. Our iTunes is more than twice as expensive in some cases. I bought Yeezus off Kanye's site because it was $12. $17 on iTunes, $20 at JB.

Friggin

 

[LemonMelon]

I know Yeezus has taken over the internet but I'm pretty sure this is RMT

Who knew Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" would become a gay anthem so quickly.

 

[martha]

I loved Stuck in the Middle With You when I was in elementary school. I probably still have the 45. (Although I've never seen this video.)

Stuck In The Middle With You - Stealers Wheel - YouTube

So I'm always happy when Eagles of Death Metal's creditable remake comes on on the car.

"Due to unexpected illness, Social Distortion regrets to announce that they're canceling their show tomorrow, June 19th, at Webster Theater in Hartford, CT. The band regrets having to cancel, apologizes for the inconvenience and thanks all of their Connecticut fans for their continued support."


Well, that sucks.

I reckon it will be a summer club hookup anthem regardless of orientation.

The Australians have infected DB.

 

[Danny Boy]

The Australians have infected DB.

No, I grew up in Louisiana.

I'm fixin' to go to bed, y'all.

 

[lazarus]

I guess they don't play like 7 shows in a row like they do here every year.

 

[IWasBored]

Not quite. Probably 7 east coast shows total on the last 10 years? I was looking forward to not having to drive very far, as Hartford is much closer than Boston. Oh well. Guess I'll just have to stay home and play video games instead.

Unexpected illness is a tad redundant. What exactly would an expected illness be?

 

[LemonMelon]

What exactly would an expected illness be?

Chlamydia after a handshake with Lance's mom.

 

[u2popmofo]

So Portishead is doing shows in Europe with Savages opening. I am jealous.

 

[iron yuppie]

I really should have seen Portishead when I had the chance a few years ago.

 

[BoMac]

TMZ reporting that James Gandolfini died of a heart attack today.

I hope it's wrong.

 

[bono_212]

I rarely see them post stories like this that aren't :-(

 

[BoMac]

Others are reporting it now.

 

[bono_212]

I feel really horrible. Yet another talent who I kept meaning to watch their big thing and just never got around to. I'd like to appreciate people while they're alive, you know?

Ah fuck.

 

[Hewson]

Slim Whitman also passed.

 

[martha]

Well, I listened to some of the new Sigur Ros. I'm not sure they're for me. I know it's a failing on my part.


I also listend to Deafheaven. It's also not for me, given my hardassness about singing.

 

[lazarus]

Slim Whitman also passed.

Hey, that's music-related and doesn't belong here.


Back to Gandolfini, please.
