APC Tour 2018 discussion (includes spoilers!)

[lukas]

Thanks for sharing those clips lukas! My mate actually had the same thoughts as you regaring that they sound too perfect.
After the show in Sweden he said something like "I enjoyed it, but they almost sounded too good."

this. the whole sound in general kind of mimicked a studio production. i put a close eye on jeff friedl every now and then just to make sure they were really playing live. lol. i'm pretty sure i even heard some kind of compression and phaser effects on jeff friedls drum cymbals. seems the microphones run through some kind of bus with a bunch of post processing FX enabled.

[lukas]

here are all my clips

[hellboy]

The previews on those make it look like you recorded it on VHS or something.

Why the fuck would you do that lukas?

Think of the people behind you.

[lukas]

standing behind me was a dude with a go pro mounted on his fucking forehead

[Busty McCracken]

If the dude behind you with the go pro jumped off a bridge would you do that too?

My third eye is a GoPro

I think The Claypool Lennon Delirium may be opening for the fall tour. I remember seeing Les Claypool and Sean Lennon listed as special guests on the venue's website (Rupp Arena) on the day tickets went on sale but it has since been removed. So there's that.

This would be awesome.

Let's hope for Delicious and By and Down to replace The Contrarian and People are People during the fall run. I'd really like to hear how Delicious sounds when performed live, love that track especially the outro.

[hellboy]

I really like the Contrarian, so would rather that not see that removed from the setlist. I think we can all agree that any eMotive tracks and that 3 Libras remix thing should be the first to go...

[Ettan]

Oh I totally forgot about 3 Libras. Yes, agreed.

[Busty McCracken]

3 Libras remix can fuck right off but I dug the ever living shit out of counting bodies like sheep so dont want to see that go anywhere

[tys0n]

Why can't they just play all their songs, lazy fuckers

[fortysixand2]

[hellboy]

Nice support!

[basejumper]

If the dude behind you with the go pro jumped off a bridge would you do that too?

sure!

It depends on how high the bridge is but probably not the one in the link!

[hellboy]

Speaking of good support acts, looks like Tricky will be the support for the coming US leg of the Eat the Elephant tour.

[fortysixand2]

I'd rather see Chelsea Wolfe but then again I haven't heard much of, if anything, from Tricky.

[Ettan]

Just bought tickets for the gig in Belgium in december, let's go round two!

Sounds good - pity Australia can't even get a round one...

[fortysixand2]

I don't even remember them announcing this.

I remember seeing that on Facebook - I meant to post about it on Fourtheye but never did. Maybe I will today!

[Ettan]

So.. They added Judith and Delicious to the setlist. Get in!!
