also two new VW songs today. "Gen X Cops" is overproduced IMO but still makes me smile. "Capricorn" is so good i almost threw up in my car. Shout out MVOTC gang we back.
Agree for the most part - either way it got me hype for this album

yeah i just heard those little snippet clips they dropped on instagram and then preordered the vinyl, cd, t-shirt, and for some reason a "box". it comes with the CD t-shirt combo i don't know what it's supposed to do. but at least this way i'll have it. years from now it'll probably be going on ebay for like a million dollars. people will be walking up to me on the street with tears in their eyes saying "sir sir please sell me the VW OGWAU box i will give you these diamonds" and i will laugh and say "get out of my way loser".
Upcoming Shows: 10/18 - Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit & Iris DeMent @ Ryman Auditorium 11/8 - Goose @ The Andrew J. Brady Center 11/13 - Bobby Weir & Wolf Bros w/ The Wolfpack & The Cincinnati Pops Orchestra @ Cincinnati Music Hall 2/14 - Alan Walker @ The Fillmore Detroit 4/15 - Ben Folds w/ The Cincinnati Pops Orchestra @ Cincinnati Music Hall
The matinee dates are incredible, we need them to be instant sell outs. We must send a message to the industry: Normalize the (Sunday) afternoon concert.
a new electronic venue in Richmond has shows that typically put the headliner on at 1230 am, and this made me realize a lot of venues are missing out on money by not considering stagerring start times compared to other other local venues. Would love to be able to hop between a matinee show, evening show, and late night show on any given Saturday
Bowery/AEG uses a hotel ballroom as their mid-sized venue (around 1000 cap.) in Boston, and their weekend night shows start early and end by 9:30 because the venue has other promoters come in who book DJs for late shows. Normally, I'm happy when shows start and end early, but the Guided By Voices show coming up there this summer is going to be held to a short-for-them 90 minutes with a 7 pm start time that includes an opening act.
Either start the early show even earlier or the late show later, but if people are paying to see a regular tour date by a headliner doing their own show (as opposed to a festival), they have every right to expect that the band will perform a set running the length of time that their sets normally run.

actually gen x cops sounds less overproduced on my headphones. first listened in my car which is quite bright. still a dense mix.

I almost did too, but not for the same reason.
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Vampire Weekend. The cultural and philosophical references are extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of the ivy/trad japanese ametora tradition most of the lyrics will go over a typical listener's head. There's also Ezra's struggles with the concept of god, which is deftly woven into the bands instrumentation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from various schools of economic thought, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these lyrics, to realize that they're not just clever - they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Vampire Weekend truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the delight in the repeating the Harmony Hall lyric "i don't wanna live like this / but i don't wanna die," as a call back to the same lyric in "Fingerback" several years earlier. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as the band's genius unfolds itself on their stereos. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a wicked snakes tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only - And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

Got selected for a shot at Olivia Rodrigo Silver tickets. I already have two $100 nosebleeds for the columbus show so if I get these silver tickets I'm gonna face value sell my other ones bc there's no way I get a worse seat than I already have with silver tix lol

Needs more Rebelution, but otherwise psyched for this. Shooting for the night show 10/5 at MSG - I'm old, but I don't think a matinee makes sense for my schedule.
Do you want to dance while also thinking about all the ways you've failed as a human?
UPCOMING SHOWS 10/22 - Air @ Beacon Theatre 10/24 - Massive Attack @ Forest Hills Stadium 11/1 - The Go! Team @ Irving Plaza 11/18 - Slowdive @ Brooklyn Paramount 11/21 - Caribou @ Avant Gardner 11/23 - LCD Soundsystem @ Knockdown Center 11/25 - TV on the Radio @ Webster Hall

Plus with the non matinee show you get a Mark Ronson DJ set and the Billy Joel cover band as openers. That's the move for sure.

Same here, I'm still waiting on Yay or Nay emails on her and Pearl Jam.
Seems they kinda botched it.
A lot of people requested something with limited availability. Don't think it counts as a botch when only a small percentage of those that requested get it.

I like Friday/Saturday night shows at Webster Hall here in NYC because they start early and end by 10 to make way for their club nights after 11.
