Just wanted to say a big thanks to everyone who came out to the Dirty Projectors + Wye Oak show on Tuesday. Best bands, best touring crew (Matt, Megan, Tim, Max, Andy, Mike), best Ballroom crew (Gory, Rob, Chris, Cory, Adeline, Jessica, JD, Hilary, Rosa, Rocky), best audience, best night. Was such a treat to hear Dirty Projectors tear up “Offspring Are Blank,” and to finally hear “Civilian” live. Dang sons. We’re waiting on show photos, but in the meantime, check out Alex Marks‘s Polaroids portraits of the bands. I literally (LITERALLY) cannot say enough good things about this project. See the whole thing scattershot here (some day we will make a book). –NI
