Yeah that sell-out was a big surprise.
 One of the best shows of last year for me.
 
 
   Brother Sport    
 In The Flowers (I Think)  
 
   Lion in a Coma  
 
   My Girls (I think)  
 Daily Routine  
 
   Taste
 
 I know I've seen No More Runnin up there before but couldn't find it. Not sure of what the others are. There's an obvious West African feel to a lot of them; like Paul Simon's Graceland meets a sizable puddle of LSD.

Merriweather Post Pavilion officially out 1/20.
 
 A release party at the club would be so fitting.

Wouldn't a release party at MPP be more fitting? Painfully cold and undersold, yes, but definitely fitting.

In a perfect world in which AC could fill MPP and the release date was tomorrow as opposed to january, sure.
 
 Having a club affiliated with MPP hold the event would be the next most logical idea.

All I ask is that I hear an awesome album.  I don't care who it's from.

story behind the title of the upcoming AC album
 
 i'm excited for it, especially following strawberry jam, which was stuck in my car's CD player for months early this year.

I keep seeing Dr. Pepper mentioned alongside news of this. What's the connection?

[walkonby]

dr. p said a long time ago it would give a can of soda to everyone in america if it drops in 2008.

"According to the track listing sent out by the band's publicist, though, the album will not include such songs as "Ducks in the Parking Lot," "Stuck in Traffic on Broken Land Parkway" or "Remember That Incredible Robert Plant-Alison Krauss Show? Wow.""
 
 
 And this just in:
 J. Freedom du Lac is still lame.

[heather]

i ignored that part  

[sweetcell]

according to a sidebar note in Rolling Stone, Sonic Youth are currently writing songs for a 2009 studio album.
