I tried listening to Hurry Up, We're Dreaming once and made it as far as that song they play on the radio all the time and had to turn it off. Portugal. The Man! put out that super popular song and so I had to discredit the rest of their back-catalog.

Hey guys - here's a pretty little mobile version of the set times that I made. I'm planning on using this on my phone this year instead of having to carry a schedule in my pocket. Looks good, but I'll never go to the festival without a printed schedule - or 20. My phone would never make it through the day if I kept pulling it out to look at the schedule.

Song from the new album.
I know this was posted in another thread but I'll just put it here anyway.

Apparently dogs don't either. EDIT: Eventually I may figure out how to add a video. I think I figured it out. Maybe.

Hurry Up, We're Dreaming is the worst M83 album and I will never fault anyone who goes "oh the 'Midnight City' band? Meh." And I loved that song when it came out, and I still like the album, but Saturdays and Before The Dawn are way better and more interesting pop albums that have the added benefit of not being deliriously overplayed. Falling out of love with a song that became "popular" is understandable. I don't necessarily agree with it, but I understand that this board is essentially a grouping of folks that hate anything popular. I'm not so naive to not recognize that Midnight City brought the "bros" out. I stood behind some "bros" at a M83 concert a couple years ago and they spent a lot of time dicking around on their phones and generally being the worst kind of concert goers ever. The only time they actually paid attention was when they played Midnight City. Then they vacated the premises. It was nice to see them leave before M83 killed it with Couleurs.

That seems like an awfully strange way to judge bands. "I remember listening to Pablo Honey and got to that second song and thought, 'Oh these guys. Never mind.' I'm sure they never made any other music worthy of my time anyway." When I have 50+ new artists to check out on a festival lineup and the second song on the album is one I'm already sick of hearing on the radio, I move on to the next one. If time permits or I get a good recommendation, sometimes I make it back to them (as I did in this case). You make it sound so arduous to listen to new music.

That's literally the second song on the album (assuming we're talking about Midnight City) and the first song is Intro. That could very well be. I just remember ststarting to listen to it, then thinking "Oh, this is those guys. Never mind" and turning it off. That seems like an awfully strange way to judge bands. "I remember listening to Pablo Honey and got to that second song and thought, 'Oh these guys. Never mind.' I'm sure they never made any other music worthy of my time anyway."

Wait wait wait, Goldbeard, are you trying to plan a pregnant ladies coup? Thinking about it. With the price being The same and the fact is that you get free hot showers and a shuttle sounds pretty nice. Is that the same shuttle that I see a huge line for at the end of each night? I would rather walk than stand in line when it's that cold.

FUCK, if I'm blowing shit I quit. I'd like to thank information for giving me one more opportunity to make overly redundant rant posts that I don't actually remember making. It's been a long time.

I know it's like a broken record at this point, but can we just get an LCD confirmation, positive or negative, from info? It's driving me nuts. And would also make this lineup the best if it came to be. But also ease the anxiety if they were confirmed not there. CoShit has reported that LCD has a giant contract with AEG Live which (by default) doesn't include Sasquatch (based on my own simple fucking internet research that could be conducted from bumfuck nowhere). Consequence of Sound reports that the impetus behind the reunion was in fact what it terms a “lucrative, multi-million dollar offer” from touring company AEG Live. The Chicago site reports that, alongside headlining Coachella, LCD Soundsystem will also perform at Los Angeles’ FYF Fest, as well as further festivals across the US and Europe throughout 2016. From the COSpiece of Shit Website ( website: consequenceofsound.net/ for those that would like to sue me) Why then is Murphy deciding to get the band back together, and why now? Sources tell Consequence of Sound that the impetus for LCD Soundsystem’s decision to reunite so soon after their highly publicized farewell came thanks to a lucrative, multi-million dollar offer from AEG Live. Aside from the financial return, AEG’s offer provided LCD Soundsystem the chance to headline one of America’s most prestigious music festivals in Coachella, along with AEG’s other Los Angeles festival, the fast-rising FYF Fest, which takes place next August. AEG also intended to have LCD Soundsystem headline its planned New York City festival, Panorama, which was to take place in June. However, those plans hit a snag when AEG failed to secure the proper permits. While AEG still hopes to stage Panorama at some point in 2016, the band is now planning its own headlining concert in New York City later this year. Since receiving the initial offer from AEG, LCD Soundsystem have signed on to headline several other prominent music festivals across the United States, the United Kingdom, and Europe. LCD Soundsystem Costs A fucking lot of money. Don't expect the undercard that's been reported by "information" and also expect LCD Soundsystem.

Seriously. I'm just now finding out that there's a "like" button and I'm using the shit out of it. Except for Nick's posts.
