Thanks. Saw these earlier this week. Good stuff.
It's a pleasure to see a band having this much fun playing these songs together.
It also makes me feel a little bit sad though, because they won't be playing in Belgium on this tour.
On the other hand, I went to see Lee with the Bang On A Can All Stars yesterday in Antwerp and I must say it was a wonderfull experience. The evening started with a great solo-performance of a Steve Reich-composition and they finished the first half with Thurston's "Stroking Piece #1", which really had a great SY-vibe. And for the grand finale, Lee joined them to play his piece "How Deep Are Rivers". It was just a breathtaking and fascinating composition, a superb ending.
I didn't know a lot about Bang On A Can All Stars going in, but the whole evening was quite a revelation to me. I enjoyed every piece they played.
And in a way, it kinda made up for the fact that the Dust doesn't play in Belgium this time.
