Collected Animals

Hey All,

I think there have been mentions of people making CA podcasts to talk about our guys but unsure if those discussions or projects have gone forward (please point me in their direction, I would love to listen!)...

On this lazy Sunday I am feeling creative and have energy and vision for starting a new thing:

What I have loved so much about this band from the beginning is seeing them live, consuming the boots, and forming my own attachments to them, to the different eras, and to this community. I'm imagining a pod where we talk about a specific live era/boot/context surrounding a tour etc, have a sweet discussion and somehow relate the experience to larger themes--our own experiences, the time in our lives when we first saw/heard/found xyz...

We'll see where it goes!

I truly believe that this band's live shows will continue to wield great meaning to a lot of people--and though I am, as yet, not a fan of the Grateful Dead--I think AC has the same beautiful thing going on, and I'd love to explore it.

If you're interested in guesting, guest-hosting, collabing, whatever DM me!

My idea for the first show is a relook at something relating to MPP era live shows a la 07-08 (something we had been talking about in the Skiffs thread recently), the fervor and energy around AC at the time, and the best boots of the era.

Thanks 4 reading!

def interested... for sure interested in hearing and potentially interested in like... participating somehow. Interesting. Especially rn when they're touring a decent amount all year

okay....anyone want to be interviewed about their experiences with either (or both):

--seeing AC live in 2007/2008

--falling in love with boots from those years

DM me

Sure probably

my issue is even tho I got on the bandwagon late 08, it was like kinda too late for me to have that MPP era boot (07/08) super connection and attachment.

somehow both an old man AND a noob. But still interested in maybe helping outside of that.

I saw them in '07 literally lost my tickets on the way to the venue in '09 and couldn't get in

damn wild. Refined live MPP was not for you. Only primordial, super mystical new live MPP.

Even 08 is basically Hootie and the Blowfish to me. I listen to Hove or Lux Fragil and they're so bloated, almost a pastiche of 07. Reminds me of a tribute band at a life insurance convention.

I'm joking. It's a cool idea man. I'll look forward to it.

Lol
