TFW the Big Ears Festival announces that Anthony Braxton, The Necks, Sons of Chipotle (John Paul Jones & Anssi Karttunen), Fennesz, Sudan Archives, Peter Brotzmann & Andrew Cyrille, Steve Coleman, Terry Riley, Mdou Moctar, Nadah El Shazly, Ches Smith, Josephine Foster, Sarah Davachi, and Zeena Parkins are all on the same day and you know there's gonna be mad overlap

Those are amazing names.

I’m less inclined to try to go though because I watched a bunch of clips and it seems like they try too hard to get everyone to collaborate. I’d still love to go, don’t get me wrong, but I’d want them to just do their **** like they always do not try incorporate some kind of dance ensemble or some ****.

Wasn't my experience there, what'd you see in particular? They usually had artists their own show in addition to their collaborative performance(s). The fest definitely promotes it to get the most out of the artists they sign on but I think it happens on an organic level too. Lots of jazz artists get most of their income from festivals like these and as a result, they usually find new collaborators that they would've wanted to work with anyways while they're there.

well this clip from the news hour is just no

**Frownland** · 01-14-2020, 01:25 PM

Ja I love how the news coverage always details the least exciting aspects of the festival to avoid scaring off their viewer base. There's a lot there so you can make your own experience of it

Wish I didn't miss this one but I was too tired from the night before

i m searching for my earplugs. gonna go see Nightstalker. they re a kind of legendary-local-status stoner band (or maybe monster magnet style?). they re a pretty good live act but their engineer must be deaf or something..

Hey no worries guy, you can't afford it anymore anyways

Think I might catch Algiers as a consolation prize. Hopefully I'll have another opportunity to see Braxton.
