lsamuel3 Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 Hey sorry this came so late, I had to wait for Relix to publish it before I could. Here's my review and photos of the Dirty Projectors show at the Opera House, Sept 15http://backin15mins.blogspot.com/2010/09/show-review-dirty-projectors-live-at.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weirdness Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 I was going to ask if anyone had hit this one up, would've really like to have gone but the timing didn't work out for me. Cracked me up about the recent Phish comment, I wouldn't really call it a 'dis' as much as the usual "I listened to their shit and really don't get it" type comment which is the usual thing for the uninitiated. As per usual, if I had to explain, you wouldn't understand. Regardless, Bitte Orca is way, way better than Joy in terms of rating 2009 releases so I guess they are entitled to their own opinion as are we all. Obviously, Phish aren't really a studio band so whatever... Interesting to hear they put on a good show though, I was really curious as to what they were like live. Good pics too by the way.

AD Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 i read the review and didn't read anything about Phish..... huh?i've seen Dirty Projectors twice (once with David Byrne) and they put on a great show. Off-kilter for sure but definitely melodic and jarring, in a good way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsamuel3 Posted September 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 no Phish comment in there...must have been from a different review or thread about the DPers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewRider Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Thanks for sharing. Wanted to catch that show but totally forgot about it. If I remember correctly it was a pretty fair priced show too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lsamuel3 Posted September 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 A silly comment from Longstreth no doubt. Although the DP show was awesome, I'm sure as someone commented that most of their shows are pretty similar. As far as them improvising live, all the tunes they played off Bitte Orca sounded like reproductions of the album version with 0 improv. They were impressive live nonetheless.
