I have officially (and finally!) jumped on the avett brothers’ bandwagon.
yes yes yes! Kings are playing Bonnaroo festival in June! soooo pumped. Sarah and I have been checking out the line up all day and have been holding our breath for this announcement. The organizers decided to release the names of bands one at a time which I think is hella lame but anyway. KINGS ARE PLAYING! All is well. I figured it would be at least another year to we saw them again but looks like the countdown is on, baby! 4 months. I am stoked to hear some new tracks! Some other bands of interest include: dead weather, Tori Amos, The National, John Prine (hilarious!!!), Jay Z, Tokyo Police Club, Regina Spektor, Flaming Lips, The Avett Brothers, Mumford and Sons, Norah Jones and….WEEZER ….(yes, finally. I was supposed to see those guys when I was 18 at Reading festival and they cancelled..about time!!!) So, yeah, pretty excited…
I know I have posted this video at least one time before but it is one of my favorite videos of the kings..actually period.
So the boys are officially back in the studio recording their 4th album (finally!!!). They released one tour date for the Isle of Wight festival this summer which will be their first gig together since 2006. I am so stoked to see what they come up with and to see them live again. Welcome back, boys!
