buwahahahahahahaha

that video did suck.

Yeah, whats with the crappy AC videos lately. I liked Peacebone. But Water Curses video was a snore, and this is just dumb.

Good song though.

and while on the topic of videos: I love the newest Parenthetical Girls video though.

I love
Bobby Beausoleil.

what's up with them charging over 30 bucks for shows? sonic youth doesn't even do that. i understand they are playing at bigger venues now, but over 30 bucks just for one band (and some shitty openers i'm sure). give me a break!

aside from sonic youth and minor threat (via time machine that would take me back to 1982), i would never pay that much for a show that wasn't a fest.

i had a problem paying ten bucks last night for vivian girls, fucked up and pissed jeans and i really like those bands (well i really only like pissed jeans live, they are okay on record).

Because animal collective are more popular than sonic youth perhaps?... Or, they're at least on their way to being more popular. Which is sad and ridiculous but true.

$30 for any band is fucking robbery. I'm trying to think.... I'd pay $30 for a Captain Beefheart reunion tour and maybe, via time machine, a Thinking Fellers Union Local # 282/Sun City Girls/Caroliner show... and perhaps 99 Boadrum. That's about it.

$30? That's strange
I would definitely pay $30 to see them, but that's strange. Tickets for the gig in Lille, in two months, are only 10€, which is $13 :confused:

i was eating dinner at my work last night and i heard a co-worker talking about how she's going to get animal collective tickets and they'll be around 30-40 bucks. they played here the other day and i think it was around 20 bucks.

Has nayone mentioned they're shit yet?

Yes, but he was subjectively wrong.

Also, he got bored of antagonizing.

you guys are so naive, honestly. i sold my chicago ticket for $90.

people were scalping these for $100+. MPP is #2 on US itunes right now. AC/MPP just got referenced in a fucking fantasy basketball blog. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie/post/BDL-NBA-Power-Rankings-Do-you-believe-in-Magic-;_ylt=AtoZq4_U3li.ch_rUHXTJka8vLYF?urn=nba,135466
(scroll down to chicago bulls at #20)

they make really great music. i am happy they are getting the chance to make a good living off of it now

Where does "naive" come in?

It's in the first sentence. Before the comma.

I got $20 tickets for the Troubadour show this Saturday. I don't recall the service charge shit though.

this record is kinda meh.

maybe "in denial" or "stuck in the past" works better.

i'm referring to the 5 posts in a row on the other page all saying "$30!?!!/!/?"

as in. yes, and maybe 25-30% of the people who went to these NYC shows paid way more. and this happens for many other bands too.

I don't honestly believe -- and I've never seen them, just youtube clips and listened to their records -- their shows would be good enough to be worth $30. In fact, they seem like the most boring band on earth to see live next to, like, Black Dice or something.

they are way better live than most bands (i put sy but changed it, i'm tired of fighting)

All the live clips I've seen have been a bunch of dorks out-of-tune harmonizing and dancing like PCP addicted weirdos and stepping on obvious fx pedals. Just seemed like a really boring party. I'd still probably buy tickets for me and my girlfriend because she beats her clit off to them.

well yr gf is smart.

and i dont know what clips yr watching, are they from 09?
