he JUST played new york last week at Webster
he played last week at music hall of williamsburg. did he play webster, too?
music hall show was him plus 3-piece guitar-bass-drums for most of the show, with other parts on backing tracks, and it was fine and all but i didn't think it did the album justice. hoping full tour means more of a full production.
album is fucking great.

Remarkable album but hard for me to listen to on repeat as much as I would like to. It's Saadiq's lament- which is not a complaint on my part- and the fact that parts of it are disguised within upbeat musical arrangements makes it hit it even more.

xp i guess i was mistaken and it was MHoW and not Webster; must've misread or they rescheduled

Ha! I posted that before watching the mini-docu above and he basically says "Yeah it may sound upbeat but there's heavy lyrical stuff happening with that fun music"

This album as a whole somehow hasn’t clicked with me yet, but I really really love “This World is Drunk”.

it's not quite getting the critical end-of-year love that I want to see but i guess that's always been the way with him

And it's always bugged me how 'Still Ray' has such a prominent tuba part, and the tuba playing is so bad. This version is better.

aw man the tuba part always made the song for me. granted i couldnt really pinpoint the difference between good and bad/mediocre tuba playing

Good set. Especially loved "This World Is Drunk". Wish he'd played more stuff off the new album. Lucky Daye's songs are ok but they're no match.
