Collected Animals

SEA OF LIGHT AGAIN!! YES!!

so cool to see / hear the new jamz. thanks to everyone for sharing insights, vids, and boots.

i still hold out hope that AC will drop that official show catalog they alway tease. fingers crossed for another bandcamp drop from this or last tour

Was anybody at the show last night? How did piggy’s sound? How about strangers? Any big updates there? Here’s hoping for boots soon!

I wish I had gone but I was afraid of Covid

No full boots of these shows yet?

Piggy's was great but unlike a lot of their live material it felt like they shortened it a bit. It transitioned really well into Strangers/Broke. If I was less familiar with the band I would have assumed the two songs were a medley

I wonder if they'll play Bridge to Quiet (title track). Would be tight and seems relatively str8 forward to perform

that song feels like it could be the new WWIWS live almost.


Weird to see a setlist w/o Prestor/Defeat so glad they played those the first night. But that's sick Down Down and now Magicians likewise go way back to those Music Box sets spring '18

Half the damn set from spring '18 are still around which is wild... think thats the longest gap in live-to-release since I guess MPP not including things that never really got full release like Glasslands/DT tour stuff.

thank you so much!! can't wait to listen

Thanks! Been dying to hear some of these songs again.

Thank you diatomatix!

no problem!! hope you all dig it. we got lucky with a spot right in front of abby & the sound dude, and were happy enough with the recording that we didn't do much of any mixing (just some light EQ to cut back on some harsher frequencies that were coming through). that said, if anyone wants the wav files to do a little extra sweetening, happy to share – just reach out!

you rule, can't wait to listen!

Thank you for recording this and sharing it with us <3 looking forward to hearing it after work

thank you !!

Thank you diatomatix

Thank you! can't wait to listen!

Not that we needed anymore confirmation after the freebird was basically confirmed, but Dave definitely says Time Skiffs.

Thank you very much! Going to listen to it now and hopefully shit my pants x

This is so incredibely high quality and clean holy shit, immense thanks!

Yeah, just flicking through, absolutely great work, thank you thank you! Sounds like a top quality show and cool to hear the album changes before the album, if you know what I mean.

You cake those pants yet Stan?

Sorry fellas I failed you guys on the boot end, was hard to focus on the show while worrying about recording. Chose being present in the moment, but it seems like a boot is likely coming anyway if hunks recorded it.

Consider Asheville booted! Abby-approved and everything. Met some incredible people, venue was stellar and the boys have leveled up in every way. Glad you chose to enjoy yourself! And shout out to everyone who was at the playground afterparty too!!

Exciting times, everyone! See y’all in Lexington tonight!!

Does that mean you got a soundboard recording of the show?

THE NEW MIDDLE SECTION OF DEFEAT IS PERFECT

perfect melding of the original / the one from last tour/ and now a whole new vibe too
wowowow!!!!!!!!!

prester john is fucking killer now holy shit!

You cake those pants yet Stan?

Let's just say I made pudding.

Really enjoying the vibe of these new songs, I barely listened to the boots apart from going mental about Defeat like three years ago or whenever. Feels like a hell of a long time since we had new AC to talk and buzz about.

Edit: I'm signed in on slightly different accounts on different devices, sorry for the confusion.

Maaaaan I'm on the way to work, won't be able to listen to this for hours. Thanks so much for recording diatomatix!


Stan we absolutely love to see it

These songs sound better than ever. Love the new vocals on gem and I and the new stride right. Didn’t love the changes to Cherokee, feels a little less lively but overall I’m
Hyped. Anybody know if there’s any recordings of last nights show on Cincy or anybody recording Lexington? I gotta hear passerby and strangers

someone on the subreddit mentioned recording video of the whole show in cinci, i saw someone with a camera in the crowd too.

people in charge of the venue also had cameras set up all around the little stage and were projecting it onto a big board on the building behind the crowd, so high quality footage of jeremy and anco's sets probably exists somewhere on a hard drive in a drawer at 5/3rds bank somewhere

and that footage will be put in the same place as the stuff taken at music box

idk if anyone else would really dig this, but once they're touring the album post-release, i think it'd be really cool to see them keep the same setlist for multiple nights. i could see people thinking it's less exciting, but i think it also creates a more performance-oriented vibe where your favorite boot from the tour isn't just gonna be the one with the best setlist. exciting in its own way imo

Hearing that Prester John boot is pure crack

Thanks Diatomatix!!

They p much did this for the 2011 Hz shows

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS BOOT, IM SO FUCKING EXCITED

Car keys is a fucking jam now. Crazy to see that song develop

idk i love random set lists, keeps it interesting.

LETS DO IT AGAIN
