NO PODCAST – PITCHFORK COVERAGE SOON [SITE INFO]
In preparation for The Pitchfork Music Festival there will be no Monday podcast. Before this weekend I have to move all of my stuff over to my new apartment (which is within walking distance of the festival) so I am going to take this one off. Acosta, The West Coast Informant, Dr. Hollencomium, and myself will be going for total coverage of the festival so stay tuned for pictures, sounds, reviews, and more. Also stay tuned for pre-festival coverage of Muse, The Cloud Room, and Art Brut. I will try to work out a schedule for updates that will work for everyone and maybe previews before each day. If I really decide to imperil my electronics I will try and get some recorded sounds (not music) from the show in the form of interviews etc. if I can scare up some interesting characters.
Nutz, any sightings of the new Hold Steady on oink? I know promos are out from Vagrant, so there could be a leak soon.
Dunno? You know if they are playing any new stuff live yet?
Yeah, I’ve heard 4 or 5 of the new tracks live. They played Stuck Between Stations at Bowdoin I remember, as well as a few other tracks that probably made it on the album. We heard the new songs twice that night because we hung out at sound check. Great stuff from what I recall.
What you recall is completely unreliable… same goes for Mort. I guess I will have to judge for myself.
Hey, I was sober for sound check. The show itself, not so much. But I agree, you should always judge for yourself. That’s why I only listen to Pitchfork(TM) Best New Music(TM).
You too? Its how my podcasts are born!
A little update on the move/blogging/podcasting: Things are definitely going to get done but they might not be as instant as I like just because there will be no internet at the new place until Monday.
