Why does it seem like only now, with just a week before the show, is promotion occuring for Dark Was The Night at Radio City Music Hall? I’ve seen advertisements (posters/flyers) all over downtown, yet I hadn’t seen anything less than a week ago. Can someone tell me what’s up?
In case you haven’t heard, a small group of the album contributors are performing May 3, 8:00 p.m. at Radio City Music Hall. Contributors include Bon Iver, David Byrne, Dirty Projectors, Feist, My Brightest Diamond, The National (obviously – they made this all happen), Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings, and Dave Sitek, among others. Get your tickets NOW before they run out (selling for $38-$58)! If you get your hands on a pair of these puppies, let us know what you think of the concert afterwards. (Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend.)
Bon Iver – “Brackett, WI” [MP3]
Justin Vernon (Bon Iver) and Aaron Dessner (of The National) – “Big Red Machine” [MP3]
