in addition to all that coming on stage stumble-down drunk to a crowd of people who paid to see you and may have travelled a good distance is a pretty big asshole move

and to think I was about to post something here about liking the new album...
Saw him once (circa 2010?) and he was in relatively good behavior. He was obviously a weird guy but held it together for the show.

Pink was re-tweeting his dad's pro-weinstein comments the other day. Do we just chalk this up to Pink being an oddball/weirdo, or is he actually kind of a shitty human being? I mean he hangs out with Greg Gutfield, acts like an asshole to his girlfriend in front of an audience, says really, really horrible things in interviews...but he makes good music? Is that enough to save him from the same fate that's ending Matt Mondanile's career?

In another reddit throwaway account:
I saw this post from the daily discussionhttps://www.reddit.com/r/indieheads/comments/76j49s/sunday_daily_music_discussion_october_15_2017/doeqhd8/So I just kind of wanted to make a thread about this.I saw Ariel Pink at the Metro in Chicago in 2010 after Before Today came out, Os Mutantes and someone else I can't remember opened.I was standing at the front of the stage with two girls I went to the show with, like right in front of Ariel Pink himself.During one of the songs, he jumped off stage and came right at, I didn't really know what he was doing, but he came right up to me, grabbed my face and started kissing me, like full tongue down threat and everything. He then turned and did the same thing to the couple girls I was with, and then some other girls who started crowding up to the stage, and jumped back up and kept playing with the rest of the band.I uh...wasn't really into it, and I felt pretty embarrassed, but I just kind of thought it was "part of the show" so I didn't really think much of it. But having seen all the stuff about Matt Mondanile come out the past couple days and all the details about makes me feel like that was all not very above board?So I just wanted to get that out. Thanks for reading.

Can anyone confirm this is something this asshole does at shows?

yeah, go fist yourself rudipherous. make sure you take your head out of there first tho.
― map, Tuesday, 17 October 2017 16:37 (six years ago) link
Someone in the that Reddit thread posted this video with him leaving the stage to make out with the audience, so it definitely has happened. You can see it around the 2:35 mark.

I don't think anyone is shocked, it's just another installment. & obviously even more stark & nauseating given the timing

Yea the chapel is small. We was packed like sardines in there until half the crowd dipped

I have one ticket to the Philly show on Friday Nov 3rd, looking to sell it for face value (which is less than I wound up paying with fees added in). Anyone in the Baltimore area want to buy it from me?
Just realizing that I'm not up for all the driving needed to see it, especially when there are other things I need to do timewise and no one I know (other than one performer) will be attending.

i had never really listened to much cabaret voltaire before but right now i have red mecca on and jeez this is like 90% of ariel's early sound huh
― marcos, Wednesday, 15 November 2017 21:10 (six years ago) link
... no?
― brimstead, Thursday, 16 November 2017 01:55 (six years ago) link
definitely in there but no 90%

i think it's just.. lofi
― brimstead, Thursday, 16 November 2017 02:10 (six years ago) link
Yeah I wouldn't even say 50%. Here's a 90% playlist:
Calice - Shaking Romance (1984)Charles Smith and Jim Tollan - Taktent (1984)The 6ths - Rot In The Sun (1994)Lives Of Angels - Imperial Motors (1983)Martin Newell - Gamma Ray Blue (1985)
― 3×5, Saturday, 18 November 2017 01:45 (six years ago) link
Imperial Motors is maybe 75--80%

It doesn’t sound that much like his own music but threadc reminded that I really liked this from that same FACT mix AP did a few years ago.

the good bit is where it interpolates Neil young's Neil Young's Hey Hey, My My (Into The Black) from 4 minutes in. I like it though.

i like Ariel Pink but he is in no way the Bowie of this generation. Bowie had a solid 15 years of radio hits singles and mass appeal (despite Julian's dumb fantasy tons of people knew who Bowie was in the 70's). Pink has't even gotten to his Space Oddity yet.
