AKRON/FAMILY

[Augustus]

I dunno about trusting someone that doesn't know how to spell vinyl....

Then you should throw down $75 because it's spelled right there.

Good marketing strategy.

Portland! Come out to Bunk Bar tonight at 9:00 to witness the most lovey dovey musical makings of Dana Buoy and Sylvan Esso! This will be the most fun.

I tweeted a few days ago that we needed another Akron/Family & Megafaun collaboration.

Akron/family liked the tweet.

A man can dream.

We need a tour too.

Phil Cook was telling me about a Frat house gig they played together that turned into an all night aural assault...

THanks, I have been on the merch site hundreds of times at this point and missed it everytime.    :|

Pretty pumped to give this a listen.


And yes a tour is needed seeing as being a new daddy made me miss the last philly show.

Got the Lightning Records quarterly zine plus 4 tapes in the mail today.  New Cy Dune plus some other stuff I'm psyched to check out.
All the tapes come with download codes, so I got that going for me, but i'm planing on building a new vintage set up, so a new tape deck is in the works.
My 20 year old Sony deck is a pos.

[rowjimmy]

Nice, dude.

[Buffalo Budd]

Nice, dude.

And I just heard Harley's still put tape decks in their bikes, maybe you need to get a hog.  :mrgreen:

ETA
and it's been way too long since we've gotten any Akron news.

Miles has a record coming up, too.
Akak is back burnered for the moment.

Hey guys!  I have searched around online for some kind of Akron/Family group or forum & just recently found this here thread.  I poured over it & knew I'd found some fellow AK freaks.  I have signed up just now so I can be connected with you guys.  I have been collecting AKFAM music for the last few years and have stuff I'd like to share & of course I'm always looking for more.

I also make AK stickers that I would also like to share with my fellow freaks, so let me know if you're into that sort of thing.

Peace,
Michael
