They were stunning
At the Cube last night in Bristol - a lot more intense, louder and less 'ambient' than their tour earlier in the year.
Going to see them tomorrow
In Birmingham. Were the crowd precious with polite applause, or was it a 'Fuck yeah!' type reception??
I think of it as
Polite, but deeply impressed applause.
yay!
i'm looking forward to this, though i'm only recently acquainted with their stuff...
I'm there!
I only know one tune but it makes me happy, my homie saw them at the Luminaire and bought us tickets for this.
Support any good?
It's Lichens supporting.
They're also a Kranky band and amazing.
James Blackshaw is
still supporting too, right? right???
Wow
I was expecting good things but goddamn that was fantastic! Perfect venue for them.
stunning.
celestial projections illuminating vaulted ceilings and amazing soundscapes washing over the audience... hard to put into words, wish i were more eloquent!
i forgot i was sitting in an uncomfortable church pew for the most part. almost fell asleep at times i have to admit.
churches usually make me feel a bit ill-at-ease but this was a perfect use of the space.
It was fucking amazing.
In fact, all the acts on the bill were great and it was in the perfect surrounding.
Also
the atmosphere was amazing... Friendly, respectful and mercifully free of chin-stroking.
It was sublime.
