I somehow missed this on the first pass. I'm not sure there are any people in indie rock cooler than Britt Daniel and Dan Boeckner. I mean cool as in both everything they do is ####### amazing, but both have that frontman swagger to them as well where they can totally own a room.
I'll take the midnight train going anywhere: piano, Don't stop Believing, journey
Just add [ spoiler ] before and [ / spoiler ] after. It's the same as the old spoiler tags.
I'm not picky but I was thinking of that category more in the way of a "found sound" type of thing. We definitely should have had snapping/clapping and whistling categories though.
Great song. Bejar hasn't been with them the past few times I've seen them :( . Brill Bruisers is so good. It's a 4-way tie now I think for my favourite New Pornographers album. I guess maybe Twin Cinema is #1 but I don't even know. They played "You Tell Me Where" at both shows on the weekend and now all of a sudden it's one of my favourite songs of theirs.
I think you are OK, since we are far enough in the day for the next round to begin. (See NV's post above!)
I've never seen them....according to my last.fm stats, they're my 10th-most-listened band and the 2nd-most that I've never seen live. That's the problem with supergroups though, no? Not always easy to coordinate schedules. Destroyer and Neko Case come through Buffalo every so often but I can't recall the New Pornographers coming through. I've seen Broken Social Scene but it was really like 1/2 of the band and Lisa Lobsinger sang all female vocals because the other 3 weren't touring with them (speaking of which, I'm seeing Metric tomorrow with Alex, my brother, and his fiancee).
Next time they're in Toronto, I'll go see them again. They've been through a lot for festivals. Riot Fest in '14, CBC Music Fest and TURF this year... but none of those had Neko and Bejar.
because I had a couple at the hockey game and I might as well have a couple more, so possibly stay tuned 
but in any case, I am going to post some thoughts in here.
Dammit, I did add the whole album. Caught myself doing that the other day as well but caught that one.
When you listen to the whole Karn Evil 9 song, it's 70s progressive pompously long (30 minutes), which is why the part I chose (one of my all-time favorites) became mildly popular on it's own due to its 4:30ish compactness making it radio-friendly.
Yeah, the 30 minute version would have really thrown a wrench into my shuffling tonight.
Yeah, imagine if this was like the draft we did a while ago where our songs had to fit onto a CD!
Could be great shtick drafting. Take two songs in the 25-30 minute range, then a whole bunch of 1 minute punk songs or something. Could actually (maybe?) pull it off in a 70s draft.
1. The version of the Kendrick song I really took was the live performance from SNL- it's just not on Spotify. Check the posted links, it' a great performance.
yeah it's hard to argue that, Bastille is a bit more radio-friendly in general.
