Looking at those prices, I can see why ticket sales would be bad. Single day and weekend passes look way overpriced.

Similarly, Mo Pop is here this weekend and as much as I'd like to go, the prices are absurd for the lineup.

...but White Lung is the first band to play the main stage on Sunday?

Tickets were terribly priced regardless.

weird! swear I saw them on the Friday lineup after being initially announced for Sunday. In fact, here's Brooklyn Vegan with a poster of the lineup I saw, showing White Lung on Friday: http://www.brooklynvegan.com/panorama-fest-announces-2016-set-times/

looks like you're right and they're back on Sunday now though :psyduck:

still, there's not nearly $125 worth of poo poo to see on Sunday, so I'm still not going. For like $60 maybe I would but even then gently caress a festival

Yeah I skipped Panorama for several reasons despite Arcade Fire/Sufy/National/Kendrick/Anderson .paak/RTJ/LCD being extremely my poo poo. Price + Goldenvoice + The Verge + middle of July heat in NYC + potential for severe weather (god that Gov Ball cancellation sucked) + top-heavy lineup was just too much to make it worthwhile.

Thankfully, that chance of thunderstorms tonight did not come about. Arcade Fire was worth camping at that main stage for, despite having to survive the madness of Major Lazer (who uses flame pyro in 90+ degree weather?!).

I'll definitely have to say Spiritualized really caught my ear. The orchestral pieces to their songs are always so cool and they got a really good sound to them. Spacemen 3 is alright too, they're much punkier sounding than Spiritualized but are just as awesome.

So this guy named Moses Sumney has gotten some press as of late, having played PMF a couple weekends back.

Some of his stuff was produced by Grizzly Bear's Chris Taylor. A bit of a grower, but I'm enjoying tracks like:

"Pleas"
"Everlasting Sigh"
"Plastic"

Put out a five-song EP last year and some singles since then. Can't find anything concrete about plans for an LP.

I'm a fanboy and therefore liked 9ToL more than many, but I think it's backloaded. "Will Do" is the sixth track and was the first (only?) single, and then the three that follow are, at any rate, my favorites on the album.

Oh, I like 9 Types a lot too. Will Do, Second Song, Killer Crane are all great.

I just wondered if whatever they released after was good. Seeds, I think?

Seeds is par for the course for TVOTR which makes it pale in comparison to their earlier work. There's still a lot to love and it's on the higher end of quality as far as the modern alternative market goes, though. Careful You, the title track, Lazerray and Test Pilot are all really solid jams. There's a theme of loss that runs throughout it, which makes sense as it's the first LP they made after Gerald Smith passed away - it kinda walks a tightrope between love and loss with some melancholy effects. I love the production on it, everything sounds crisp and some of the choruses just soar. TVOTR doesn't get enough praise for their later work - it's hard to follow up two records as strong as Cookie and Science, but that's only because "really good" isn't "goddamn good."

Ah gently caress, I RSVPed to see Dinosaur Jr. for free tonight within walking distance of my workplace and I completely forgot about it until just now. I've been home for two hours and I think the show's over already (not that I'd be able to get there in time if it wasn't). This is the fourth time they've come to Chicago since last year I think, and I've missed all of them.

Don't love the new track but it's good enough that I'm still excited for Three. I've seen them live 4 times now and they always kill it and yeah, they have about 10 really amazing tracks spread across their discography.

They played two new tracks (that weren't Run Run Blood or You Don't Get Me High Anymore) tonight at the Lolla aftershow. I dug both. One seemed like it could have been right off of Big Grams and the other was way different (almost prog rockish). So I'm totally excited to hear the whole album.

They sounded loving fantastic all around though. Sarah is so great in person.

I saw Nice As gently caress last night. Incredibly fun to see live, despite the brevity of their set. They performed in the middle of the floor and Jenny frequently sang right in front of people's faces and once even pulled in someone to dance with her.



P.S. Regarding that video, The Deep End Club was an actual store run by Tennessee Thomas that closed its doors last night. NAF played two sets at the store closing party Friday night because so many people showed up.

They did. I was watching Roadies (Cameron Crowe's new show) and they surprised me by making an appearance. They aren't as good of actors as they are live music performers.

For those not Spotify inclined, it's also on bandcamp.

It's been stuck in my head since I heard it. Anyone have any recommendations for anything similar? Been checking out S and Carissa's Wierd a bit already. Enjoying what I've heard so far.

I bought 2 weekend passes to ACL Weekend 2, but my Austin buddy that I'm crashing with just told me he can only do the first weekend. I managed to get weekend 1 tickets but I paid out the nose =/

So anyone interested in weekend passes to weekend 2? Looks like Stubhub wants $375 each with fees and I would get $275 of that. So $325 each seems reasonable to me.
