Kind of cruel to bump this thread with no actual news.

But, I don't think our fans do happily lap it up, I think they go online and talk about how it was a bad show.

Same damn thing I thought! I saw it and got super excited and then... nothing. It's Zooma Tour all over again!

You haven't lived until you've had a robot shart in your ear and followed along in the live setlist thread while it happens.

I guess I should have closed with one of these -
Everything is connected, because it's all being created by this one consciousness. And we are tiny reflections of the mind that is creating the universe.

While we're all here,

My friend Warren is releasing this terrific 2xLP live record for Phil Cook entitled "From The Kitchen"

It's terrific.

Thanks for the heads-up!  :music:

Relevant to persons who follow this thread:
https://jagjaguwar.com/artist/deyarmond-edison/

QuoteThe only reason you may know DeYarmond Edison—the short-lived band at the core of this 5-LP, 4-CD, 60,000-word tome, Epoch—is that it birthed two other bands you almost absolutely know: Bon Iver and Megafaun.
And no, birthed is not too strong a word. When the Wisconsin-founded quartet broke up in August 2006 in their new hometown of Raleigh, North Carolina, three-quarters of the band started Megafaun within days. Within weeks, Justin Vernon was returning north, shaping Bon Iver amid his season of hibernation. The ideas that DeYarmond Edison developed together unequivocally prompted its more famous successors, splitting it apart before you or most anyone else could know about it. One aim of Epoch is to offer retrospective insight, or to trace For Emma, Forever Ago and Bury the Square, Heretofore and 22, A Million back to true headwaters: these bonds of small-town childhood friendship and collective artistic ambition, even if they became too much to bear.

I just received my copy of this box and it's amazing. You can hear DeYarmond Edison dissolving and Megafaun & Bon Iver splintering into existence.

Really great shit.


Also:
I'm seeing Phil Cook play a solo piano gig on Saturday!

That sounds cool.
