Pitchfork Music Festival 08

[Doanut]

Normally I don't care about their generally boring and typical hipster line up but how cool is this: "Public Enemy performing It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back."

Details here.

 

[Tham]

That's immense, although ATP put on a heck of a lot of good shows so I'm not surprised...

 

[Belinda R]

Yes.



You're just jealous, bow down.

 

[red roze]

I'd go for saturday. Sunday looks like nothing I'd be interested in, but this is their first right? You have to start somewhere.

 

[KDHaynes]

Aren't their line-ups usually pretty solid and varied?

At any rate, it'd be awesome to see Public Enemy perform that live.

 

[vlad y]

*Sigh* I would love to see Boris though...

 

[blahh :P]

I can live off weed and scrabble for weeks.

 

[le general]

i really don't see it being a problem,
i'll probably have my own place at that point.
you'll have to bring the scrabble board though.

 

[Blink 182 ❤]

dammit why is there no two day pass for friday and sunday?!

 

[~BabiiGirl~]

Lets just hope I win the lottery in time.

 

[Anish D]

They're line-ups seem to consist of the overrated (and for the most part) completely mediocre indie acts they've hyped over that year.

 

[babie_blu1984]

Yeah, I think I'd be willing to go just for that as well.

I tend to just ignore Pitchfork for the most part.

Though I do usually check out their picks for top albums of the year, if only as a curiosity factor.

 

[DallasP]

I am already seeing Public Enemy doing that album live.

I've seen most of the other banRAB already. I am more hip than pitchfork, and certainly more hip than YOU. Good-day.

 

[miss g!]

No you aren't, I touch myself to Kim Deal while listening to a mix tape I made of Radiohead's b-sides and then wipe it up with a local alternative rock zine.

 

[Razieh A]

Yeah I'm seeing King Khan there. Once in a life time!!!



anyone?

 

[worldwidedub]

srsly if I get a ticket over there
would anyone house me who's going and lives fairly near?

 

[Paulo]

lol i would if i have a place to live at that point
just so long as you don't expect to be treated as a human being

 

[lasala64]

They're playing the whole album in its entirety?

 

[Con Asskicker]

seems to be a bit of a trend of late - acts playing their classic albums in their entirety - Stooges 'Fun House', Sebadoh 'Bakesale, Raekwon 'cuban linx'. Sure there are others I've forgotten.
'it takes a nation...' would be absolutely mental, it's such a layered sound. 'Night of the living baseheaRAB' would be alot

 

[Slam]

damn wish i could make it!
