How is this real. This seems like something they'd never do. Like what the fuck but also, this will be fucking amazing

2017 is really the wildest year for AC since like 2007

Just got a ticket!! Thanks for the link!

Still can't believe this is real

So it's gonna be just Avey and Panda?? Are they gonna play it in the same style as the 2003 tour?? So many questions

Post **Posted:** Mon Oct 16, 2017 2:40 pm

I hope they do reinterpreted versions of the whole album with all 4 of the boys, but really I'll be happy either way.

Post **Posted:** Mon Oct 16, 2017 2:41 pm

the pitchfork article says avey and panda specifically, so i think it will just be them. i would guess they'll do a faithful but freeform/updated version of the songs, and it wouldn't surprise me if they don't do them in album order.

tbh, while i love the reinterpreted songs on tours, i am very excited at the chance to see just avey and panda go wild live. this is gonna be amazing.

WE TIGERS WE TIGERS WOO

Post **Posted:** Mon Oct 16, 2017 3:23 pm

Hmm!! Hopefully/surely NYC taper will be at this concert! It would be hard to tell this early whether there would be an official recording released either by AC themselves or by Pitchfork; but if so, then both recordings could be combined! :0 : )

Got a ticket!

see y'all there..

Post **Posted:** Mon Oct 16, 2017 4:27 pm

I'm not going to be able to be there, as much as every fiber of my being wants to. Since obviously so many of you will be there, hopefully at least one of you gets a high quality recording of it lol. I wish it was being livestreamed or something

So do you think it'll be the original setup of guitars, a drum and a sampler or two? Or will they take the route of entirely electronic versions? I'm expecting them to use acoustic guitars and probably octatracks instead of sp303s (thats what's used on sung tongs, right?) though i'd be pleasantly surprised if they broke out the old samplers

Post **Posted:** Mon Oct 16, 2017 4:30 pm

Fingers crossed for a more faithful version of College than that one radio thing they did (backing tracks or samples, something)

Yeah I'm wondering abt this. I def get the impression that they're actually gonna try and play recognizable versions of the songs, with both of the dudes playing acoustic guitar, just based off the fact that this is being described as a full album recreation. But also I'm sure they'll change things up because they never 100% recreate anything, nor are they really able to. Then again if you asked me yesterday if they'd ever do a show where they play an album in its entirety I would've said never about that too, so who knows

I think you're right, most likely scenario is that they're both playing acoustic but the samples/electronics will be played on newer equipment

this is crazy!!!! i have a sung tongs tattoo and never thought anything like this would ever happen. just bought a ticket

honestly just the thought of seeing Noah play acoustic again is exciting enough lol

Here's hoping any song from prospect hummer is the encore
