whats funny is this is a perfect example of any press is good press. Had she given a fantastic performance would she have gotten this much press? When was the last time any performance on SNL got attention from Gawker, or the LA Times, or CBS News, The Telegraph in London? Most SNL performances seem to just disappear into the ether. The press she’s getting now, will only turn more people onto her music and cause her shows to be more indemand and more hyped and buzzed about.
And second, does it matter if an artist isnt talented live? Video Games is undeniably brilliant and a great tune, does it matter if she cant perform live? The translation of a song from studio to a live performance is a tricky task that sometimes doesnt work. we all know multiple bands that either arent good live, or cant translate a song or two live.
does this lineup look really house/techno heavy to anyone else?
yeah alot of those acts in small print its shocking they arent in bold. kendrick lamar, dawes, neon indian, Flylo, Asap, Kaiser, destroyer, laura marling, tuneyards, company flow
has anyone ever greyhounded it to indio? i know its sort of in the middle of nowhere like the gorge or something, so i heard you cant get a bus directly to indio or something. so that would be a pain for someone like me who doesnt drive. i get why these festivals are usually in deserted out of the way places, but its also somewhat a hassle for someone like me. And in terms of the lineup, does anyone else feel like David Guetta is involved in a game of this thing is not like the others? he may be good but its like seeing Gaga on the bill or something.
weird not seeing arcade fire, or vamp weekend
has there ever been another festival in this format. kind of bizaare if you think about it. Radiohead play the 14th, then stay in Indio for a week? And just rest up, and then a week later they play again on the same bill as the week before?
why was the logo and creative design of the top 50 albums list, redone 3/4 days after it originally appeared. When this list was first published the image at the top, or connect with this was just a simple Stereogum’s Top 50 albums of 2011. Now the word Stereogum is in multicolored font. The words 50 albums are in some geometric shape figure, and then you have the covers of all the albums all in this logo masthead thing.
Why redesign the logo of it? I read the list once already. Then the new logo appeared and i assumed it was maybe the Gummys or a redesigned list. All that was changed was the font and the logo attached to this story.
Bizarre.
all the late night shows usually tape only 4 days of the week. the idea of a show, any show like that being called a daily, or 5 night a week show is ludicrous. the point is, routinely the thursday and friday shows are taped one right after another, on the same day, and the jokes made for the “friday” show usually are about subjects that wont change rapidly from day to do
anyone else hear the influence of the talking heads on this album?
how old is she?
