He sure did. He actually apologized in advance at the start of the show, then again once before the song, and twice during it. At the end of the show he said he was gonna shelve it and in an interview just now he he completely disavowed the song's existence

[Fovrodi]

Hahaha

[Stan]

I laughed.

[yaava]

the new Selection treatment definitely clashed a little but I didn't mind it

I can't wait to hear Midnight Special (previously Right Now) again though. all the new songs are sounding amazing as he builds on them

[Tropic]

Midnight Special has been surprisingly absent. Although I feel like that song may have undergone some big changes compared to other tracks. Mothlight performance seems really nascent

I've had the Mayan running through my head a bunch lately. What a beautiful song. Hope it gets released eventually

Avey killed it once again in AVL last night! Hope someone recorded!

I was at The Chapel last night (along with a pretty full, but not sold out house).

I recorded the full set from the balcony (a great spot for audio). I listened to a little bit of it this morning and it sounds fine. I'll upload it soon

I was also at the chapel. A few of the performances were some of his best. Have a pretty good video recording of the 2nd half of when you left me which I thought was the highlight. Just not sure where to upload it for yall. Also a little bit of man of oil

thanks, both of you!!

Funny, I shot two songs on video as well, and they were also the last two of the set (Man of Oil, and When You Left Me). I'll get them synced up with my audio recording soon and post to YouTube.

My video of Man of Oil / When You Left Me from San Francisco is here:

holy shit! aging heart! especially around 5 the way he carries out those words fuck y'all

[yaava]

if he performs/records the reworked Aging Heart transitioning into an updated Red Light Water Show at some point, i'm going to ascend to heaven.

[spoogn]

[pioneerpreserve]

Saturdays is my jam. Eyes on eyes too, soooooooo goood! I usually try not to overlisten to boots but thhis time I can't help myself, ugh

[myersbeard]

After reading all the chatter about SoaP, I am listening to the Bowery boot. Sounds pretty sweet to me

[destiny]

Damn at that brooklyn show if he busts out midnight special i'm fina cry also it's super sweet that he brought out me and the bubble. now we need DREAM OF CHOICE!!!

[fernforested]

Correct. I think that was the title Avey gave us when someone asked him his titles for the mothlight songs.

[scrambledgreggs]

any word on the recording of Geo's set? keen to hear what that sounded like

[jfw7]

lurchy

[Saferintheflowers]

Thats correct! That's what he called the song when i asked him and he referred to it as midnight special again after the Chicago show as well.

Hopefully I'll get to it this weekend. Sorry! I don't have much free time at home nowadays and when I do I don't want to be glued to a computer screen.

nyctaper uploaded their recording!

[thebackdrifter]

Awesome! I wonder if they will put up Jeremy's as well

[jfw7]

cool! my immediate impression is that he did a very similar set in asheville

[Sam]

The first track is the one that accompanied Danny’s installation at Desert Daze (it includes the drone before the second track)

[Precarioustairs]

Just curious if anyone knows or has taken a picture of avey's equipment he's been using on this tour? I'm sure that an octatrack is probably being used for sample sequencing, and possibly a monomachine for the synth loops? Curious if anyone knows his full setup.

[jfw7]

I couldn’t really tell but it looked like an iPad? Could anyone tell?

wow so excited to listen.

"Unlike Avey’s set, Geologist’s performance included no visuals to guide your listening, just that stark headlamp in an an otherwise unlit room to keep you moored."

i didnt think about what geo's visuals might have been like, but this makes perfect sense and rules.

Except in Asheville people were filing in to the balcony above throughout Geo's set. The sounds of wood creaking and whispering voices from behind added a powerfully haunting layer to the visceral, immersive soundscape.

[hunkswithguns]

I split the Geo recording for anyone interested:

0:00 - 9:30 - Lily Pad
9:30 - 15:27 - Space Dust
15:27 - 21:15 - Cave Diving
21:15 - End - Land of the Lost

I just made em up.

[Ethmin]

nailed it, I almost asked too cause they seem legit

[Sam]

Danny’s exhibit was titled Zoom Bloom, not sure if that has any bearing on the title of track 1.

[DILWeed]

I thought I recognized some parts of Geologist's set and it turns out at least the first two songs were played on his NTS radio shows.The tracklists for them (boringly) title the tracks Unused Coral Demo 13 and Unused Coral Demo 6 respectively. Still don't know or haven't found the latter two(?) songs he performed though, unfortunately.

You can see some of it in this foto:

Avey Tare 7 by Michael Zelner, on Flickr

It does appear to be an iPad under his finger.

[speen]

is this the first time an AC member has used a computer on stage?

[dio]

they definitely all used ipads/tablets during their group DJ sets but ya that doesn't totally count
