Yeah I feel bad that he had a few flubs/technical difficulties but he recovered pretty quick

Was at the show, it was fantastic. Boys Latin and alsafian darn jammed soooo hard.

Ought was the band of the day though, oh my god their set was next level

I'm so glad he played Crosswords and Selfish Gene but I would've killed to hear Mr Noah

Lots of people around me bailed during Untying the Knot which I thought was pathetic lol

Post **Posted:** Sat Jul 18, 2015 4:19 am

Yeah, was really surprised he didn't play mr Noah, as it's like his most festival ready song

Thanks for the ATP Rehearsals, Sonic, I didn't have the chance to say thanks earlier. Darn, i just feel like we didn't get only an LP, but instead we got a BoxSet, so thanks, Sonic, I/we really appreciate that!

Also thanks for the recommendation of Ekoplekz' Reflekzionz, I've been jamming that for a couple of days now, i'm really digging it, so thanks.

Can't believe we still got more demos and an EP to come, too much to listen to, this fall is going to be great, new Beach House & New Panda EP, just perfect.

Did anyone rip Panda's Pitchfork performance?!?!

Ran into Noah last night at the mid while seeing Madlib. I sorta interrupted while he was talking to Atiba but he was super nice and chatted with me for a bit. He confirmed they finished the album 5 days ago. He didn't know when it would be coming out. I said, "prolly not for awhile?" and he said "it shouldn't be too long but not sure when". To be honest running into him made my night.

I'm sure it was probably hard to tell for sure but when he said they finished the album did you take it more as "finished recording" or like "finished"

Post **Posted:** Sat Jul 18, 2015 7:14 pm

Finished recording. I mean maybe they finished mixing it already too. But I doubt it's been mastered yet. WHO KNOWS REALLY

Nice, I thought that was Atiba taking photos side stage during panda's set but wasn't 100% sure. Cool to have it confirmed by Noah himself that they finished recording.

I'm still amazed that they already finished recording. I wonder when the songs were written. Maybe back in October last year when they said they were starting to work on it

or maybe even before that? who knows

Post **Posted:** Sat Jul 18, 2015 8:53 pm

Maybe they've only recorded them and haven't written them yet

Hearing stories of people meeting the guys in real life gives me such a weird feeling. I had a dream the other night that I was talking to Noah and it was the realest shit I've ever dreamt. Woke up so sad it hadn't happened

Post **Posted:** Sun Jul 19, 2015 11:05 pm

I felt avey's breeze as he quickly walked pass me at the Asheville panda show back in May but that's about it

I feel your pain brother

I had a dream me and Noah were really close friends and woke up sad

THANKS SONIC BOOK FOR THE DEMOS THEY ARE AWESOME

Here is Thalia Hall in its entirety on Soundcloud

I tried my best to EQ and make it not as bass heavy like the last recording I made at Thalia, but the venue leans that way big time. I'll split and make a zip folder of 320kbps MP3 files next and place it in the live thread. Hope it sounds ok!

Oh my GOD! His vocals on Alsatian there are just incredible. I'm crying right now

Post **Posted:** Mon Jul 20, 2015 11:42 pm

it was one of the best moments of the show for sure!

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 21, 2015 1:28 am

Alsatian Damn that's hot, kinda Chores vibes for me....

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 21, 2015 2:34 am

Thanks for the boot backdrifter! It's sweet to hear Noah really wail at these recent shows.

(I also have a rip of the P4k performance--pm if interested. Unfortunately, my connection fricked up during the end of "Selfish Gene" and the first half of UTK, so there's roughly a minute or so that's missing. But Fortunately, the rest is really good quality).

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 21, 2015 2:35 am

So glad that he's been playing Alsatian Darn because it's my all time favorite PB song. <3

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 21, 2015 2:43 am

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 21, 2015 2:53 am

Yeah this is great, the new vocal melody brings the MPP feels.... Wondering what the new Anco vocals are like

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 21, 2015 4:00 am

No problem! Glad you guys are enjoying it! I have been!

Post **Posted:** Tue Jul 21, 2015 11:09 am
