I haven't heard the new album yet (just made a spotify playlist for it today though) but I love their singles, and I enjoyed their set at Buku tremendously. Very creative stage setup within the confines of their budget. I'd be all for them playing any time during the weekend, even a late set Fri/Sat.

I had never heard of them before seeing them on the Blue Stage at Fun Fun Fun while waiting for another act to start. That was definitely a pleasant surprise. I'm sure they are getting ready to blow up in popularity and hit the festival circuit next year. They will provide the soundtrack to a great dance party at Bonnaroo next year.
After this tour, they will hopefully start hitting up the festivals, which will probably include Coachella, Sasquatch, Bonnaroo etc.

saw them at Riot Fest in Chicago a few weeks back, very good group. I found myself skipping around and really enjoying them. Yes for 2013, but thursday ... eh. .. whenever would be good for me.

really like these guys. caught them playing to 30 people way back in august 2011 and even then they killed. crazy seeing them go from that to a packed crowd at pitchfork this summer
I saw them a few weeks ago. I have no problems seeing them in the exact same spot as Phantogram and Sleigh Bells were in the past two years. It seems to be the place to slot entry level sort of alternative duos with female vocalists.
Saw them a couple weeks ago in ATL - BRILLIANT show. very creative stage set up, realllllllly great sound, and yes - mega dance party. I find them similar to Phantogram in that way - their album is very clean sounding and rather "chill" but when they perform those same songs live, there's no WAY not to move your body. Such a great show, and I'm pumped that they're on the Coach line up, so I can hope for Roo too.

I just started listening to them yesterday. I hopeo that they play on thursday around the same time as Phantogram last year, that would be an awesome way to get Bonnaroo started
They very well may not be but to act like they are too big is just wrong. Yeah they have sold out shows this tour and have a very critically acclaimed album but I don't think they are bigger now than a lot of Thursday acts we have had such as: Sleigh Bells, Deerhunter, Alabama Shakes, Big Giagantic, The Xx, Wale, Yellawolf(sad I know).
Edit: I'd say they are right around where Band of Skulls was in popularity when they played thursday because they had a song on a commercial.
