Okay, I know you said the "Big Hands" are playing at all of the US performances, and that makes sense in the case of Ann Arbor since they are playing a small venue, the Blind Pig, but are you absolutely positive about this because, no offense to anyone, but I would prefer to hear his beats played off of vinyl with a solid soundsystem connected than that silly band. i saw the performance when he was in chicago last time with the band and, although it might have been considered entertaining, it was nothing remotely close to as good as when i saw him spin at Fabric last summer. Can you confirm this and if anyone has seen him this summer, maybe they have improved as a live performance, please let me know. Thanks.

you lost the plot on the "big hands" concept. Dont expect false, audion, or jabberjaw. Big hands, is Matt, a drummer, and a bassist (dunno their names off of the top of my head), they're a totally different lot from Mobius band (Excellent indie band). Regardless of whos opening or closing it will be a treat for all.

I've seen them. I saw it when he played at the Empty Bottle in Chicago before he left for Europe. I am still recommending the show for anyone interested in checking it out. I will probably be there, at least in Ann Arbor. It all makes sense if you know what the Blind Pig looks like, I don't think it has the sound quality neccessary for his other entities to really make an impact so the band concept seems to fit well at that venue. And of course, Dear knows all that since the whole Ghostly thing is based in AA. I hope everyone from the area makes it out, for sure. It should be fun.
