“In the Aeroplane Over the Sea” — Phish, Columbia, MD 6/26/2010 (via etree).
Does it make me a bad person that I sorta hope this pisses some people off?
Guitar face looks weird on a keyboard with maracas.
Seriously though, this is my favorite Ira. Photo from Pitchfork’s Coachella gallery.
“ I find out about bands through TV shows and commercials. For example, the Dodos are opening for most of our upcoming tour, and I first heard them on a beer commercial. I just Googled that commercial and then bought their album. It works.”

“ So much of our cultural industries have been built on consumer mistakes and those days are coming to an end, rapidly.”

Stephen Malkmus Interviewed by Chuck Klosterman
If you ever had a dream about what an afternoon (or at least reading about an afternoon) with SM would be like, you can rest assured that Klosterman delivers here. An article as perfect as anything on Terror Twilight.
I’ve seen Malkmus perform three times, but I’ve got near-Phish level enthusiasm to see Pavement this summer. Tickets arrived yesterday.

My sense is that it matters where you come from at least as much as where you are now. Also we need labels to talk about stuff, a small amount of noise is okay.

Not the best picture ever. I want to re-listen to the show before I type up my thoughts, but it’s not on etree yet.
As I remember them, the highlights were the first set “Push on ‘til the Day” and the always mesmerizing “First Tube” encore with many other nice points through out the show.
