Hey everyone. I recorded the show tonight right in front of the sound booth. Just have to clean it up a tiny little bit tomorrow but this is by far the best bootleg I’ve ever recorded. It’s the clearest I’ve ever heard them. The mix was really good. The crowd was a little talkative around me and some boomer lady was tripping pretty hard during defeat.

I’ll upload tomorrow night!

lots of me laughing at various things like the chaos of chores and when one of Noah’s mics got fucked up. Sorry folks. This boy was stoned.

sounds fun, looking forward to listening! thanks for recording

i'm glad no one up front at mass moca recorded the show because the dude next to me kept screaming "DO YOU GUYS NEED A TRUMPET PLAYER?" during l'rain and animal collective's sets. it was so funny!!!! i only wish he did it more

Wait a second. Wat

Yup, not sure if birdmangus heard it because I was in between. He also kept recording short clips and would say to his friend each time “this is getting sampled!”

The trumpet shit was actually embarrassing

Is anyone familiar with security at the Vic in Chicago? Was hoping to bring a small recorder in.

If you carry your recorder in with your phone as in the same hand you’ll probably be fine. That’s how I got mine into mr smalls last night. And everywhere I sneak it in.

Boring Saturday for me, so I whipped together a chart showing songs played in the tour for fun. Top few are always played, colors represent songs that alternate, and everything else is just what's possible. A few patterns that don't quite sync up so I didn't highlight them, but we'll see in coming days.

anybody going to detroit tonight?

Spoiler: show

yo this is sick, thanks for making, love stuff like this

that's super cool zarya! hadn't studied the setlists to notice any of those patterns

Saw on Twitter someone from L’Rain joined AC on stage for a song does anyone know which? Really hoping someone is recording tonight

the detroit show was the best animal collective show i've seen ever. full shitty iphone audio recording coming soon

Don't sound so disappointed! I will most likely play the shit out of it anyway!!

Uploading to Drive as we speak, included in the folder are the voice note recordings from the show (and one video from I couldn't help myself. also just a stitched mp3 of the show as well as the apple garage band project with the voice note recordings.

really hopeful someone more gifted at this shit than me can make this sound like not-garbage, because it was a really, really special night.

Yeah so I was at there too

Some dude was yelling for Peacebone which avey responded "Peacebone.."

Then they went and played two strawberry jam tracks!! Talk about fanfare

Chicago set RIPPED (L’Rain anybody?????) — haven’t checked if this is new but they pulled out No More Runnin’ again, which fell limp in the mix at P4k but had STRONG bass here and great crowd reception. So happy to finally hear the bulk of the new stuff (Defeat included) live. I’ve also been converted and I like Applesauce now — Don’t know if this happened at other shows but the L’Rain Saxophonist joined for Defeat which was really unexpected and cool, he just kind of ran onto stage mid song right before he started playing

oh CRAP I may have misheard but I just remembered — it sounded like Avey said they just recorded some stuff in Chicago?? Idk if that last part is right but it sounded to me like they very recently did some more in studio stuff — gonna have to check on this from any boots, there’s at least one bc the guy directly to my left filmed the whole show on his phone.

yeah in detroit yesterday (two days ago now i guess) he said "we recorded another album in december" so hopefully shit is moving fast!

So excited for 1st Ave Tonight!

oh damn, they were being wishy-washy on what those recordings were going to turn into so hearing him call it an album is big

Chicago was great. I recorded, though I’m not sure of the quality yet, will have to check it when I get back home.

And I think he just meant that L’Rain’s sax guy had recorded with them in December. Loved the little trills he added to defeat though. Gonna sound so sweet in the studio I imagine.

yeah that's what they said in Detroit too about the saxman

Can't wait. I'll buy you all an overpriced beverage!

I’m game to meet up! Always stoked to find new good crew

Gah Minneapolis was incredible. I missed them so much. Will try to piece together a set list.

Soul Capturer
Gem & I
Sea of Light
Unsolved Mysteries
Strung
Royal
We Go Back
Defeat
Dragon Slayer
Applesauce

Prestor John

Minneapolis was crazy. Not my ideal set list but the 2nd half was epic.

gave someone on the 2nd floor light/sound booth a beer in exchange for optimal recorder positioning and it came out really, really nice.

recorded on my zoom h5 -> split/processed/encoded in ableton with a bit of EQ, panning, and stereo enhancement.

This sounds amazing! Thanks for capturing this night forever for us!

Definitely the best boot of this tour so far, thank you!

Also remembered the other night somebody at the Vic yelled "Play anything you want!" in response to requesters and Avey said back "I don't think we have a song called 'Anything You Want.'"

How different do we think May and Fall will be from this current run? Which old ones might they swap out and will anything new show up? I could see NMR or Unsolved dropping off setlists but I'd rather In the Flowers make room for a different cut from MPP-PW eras. Really hope Applesauce stays.

it's a boot bonanza! thanks for everyone who's taking the time to record. long live the tappers!

Yeah, seen In The Flowers as an opener before, and not the biggest fan of Broke Zodiac. Probably woulda shuffled things around, dropped acouple songs to fit in Magicians From Baltimore, then it woulda been a perfect night.

We’re getting so many boots this tour holy crap.

spoiled we're spoiled. i still hope someone makes mine from detroit sound better haha

The saxophonist came on stage for Defeat in Minneapolis last night. Added a really nice touch to it.

How different do we think May and Fall will be from this current run?

feel like may will be pretty similar, maybe they'll practice 1 or 2 more songs to add to the mix for may, then hopefully the fall tour will be a bit more different than that

Any word on that second show in Madison, WI? Hoping they can find a venue cause I'll travel for that one. Think it would be the last before the Seattle fest/Europe.

So I listened to my recording of the Chicago show and while most of it sounds pretty good, I had to take a freebird during Stride and put the recorder in my wife’s purse, which really muffled the sound on that one. Also you can hear my wife talking occasionally, ha. It needs some work to say the least.

But if no one else recorded it and someone’s willing to do some doctoring, I’ll post it. Otherwise I’ll throw it in the fireplace

Ok, that’s the best autocorrected freebird I’ve seen

Very good! Hahaha

What was the Chicago setlist?

Oh and thanks for the boot 'unpopular', sounds great! Dragon Slayer after Defeat is cool
