Liars & MGMT also playing McCarren Pool? (Breeders?)

Impose posted this:
The shows keep getting bigger but the pool stays the same. Here are some of the official lineups for Jelly NYC's annual McCarren Pool shows, which, on their third year, can officially be dubbed a hipster tradition. Since we are enormous hipsters over here at Impose, we've already broken out the seasonal short shorts and started shaking the dust out of our giant beards, which we are hoping are still fashionable after a ten month stint in our closet (the beards, not us).Breeders would be very cool. Not free I'm assuming though. Confirmed Breeders dates HERE.June 29::
Hold Steady with White Denim
(as just previously posted)July 20::
Liars and special guests who may have played an after party with Angus and the crew a few months ago.July 27::
MGMT and Black Moth Super Rainbow
(Black Moth part was previously confirmed)There are other rumors as well. Apparently The Breeders may make an appearance in July, though no date's set. Team Robespierre's in that same boat.
Wilco is also playing McCarren Pool.
So are M.I.A., Death Cab & Ween. (and Armin Van Buuren)
And Devo I think.

Great bands, but it would be great if they booked bands other than "Pitchfork" rock. Some hip-hop would be great, and I am not talking a whitey-approved hip-hop like the Roots or Tribe Called Quest.

"Some hip-hop would be great, and I am not talking a whitey-approved hip-hop like the Roots or Tribe Called Quest..."
So True. Let's get some Edan or Stones Throw artists up in there. Maybe that weirdo MF Doom will come out of hibernation for this...

for a second i thought Liars and MGMT were on the same bill... and i was ready to scuff their leather boots, while screaming "OH, THE IRONY!"

I dont trust impose. They dont seem like a credible source.

highly uncredible

slayer is needed to unpussify this shit

Well, seeing that Impose doesn't actually cite a source, yeah, I don't feel like saying they aren't a credible source is too far of a stretch.

liars fuck buttons and team robespierre july 20th!!!!!!
Posted by Anonymous | April 15, 2008 6:22 PM
yes, hip hop would be goooooood!!!
but just one act. lets not get carried away yeah
just never been a fan of live hip hop - just doenst translate quite as well.
but hows about blue scholars, aesop rock, or macklemore (yeah i know hes white).
that would be oranges, tits, beej, superfly, slaps, mozart, the cheesy gordita crunch, the coconuts in holy grail, etc adjective bable

narcs seldom have the correct info. they just think it makes them look cool, when in fact those in the know realize they're just sneaky little turds. i wouldn't be money on this list.

lairs are boring as fuck

And why not just come out and say King Khan? I dont understand their story.

can someone tell me where i can actually buy tickets to any of these shows, other than deathcab, m.i.a. and ween? because if hold steady will be there, i would reaaaally like to buy tickets...
Posted by fattyboombatty | April 15, 2008 9:25 PM
Hold Steady is FREE, as are all of the JELLYNYC shows
Posted by todd peeeee | April 15, 2008 10:09 PM
so july 20th means interpol or deerhunter?
members of those bands played with members of liars in chicago on the last interpol us tour.
fits interpol's schedule. they come back from europe and then play that canadian festival a few days later.

i believe this is happening because i know the jellynyc folks and just talked to them about it. it's a good 90% chance all this is happening.
Posted by Anonymous | April 15, 2008 11:22 PM
and that 10% is the vast infinity of anonymity

"we've already broken out the seasonal short shorts and started shaking the dust out of our giant beards" - these guys sound like total assholes.
liars would be cool.

Who cares?
jellynyc are coke-snorting fools who think they're important.

the hip-hop pool show is always the worst one, every summer. It doesn't work live, especially not in a pool (vocals tend to blur) and not in daylight. Live bands work much better.

1:23 why so angry, did they steal all of your coke and your girl or boy, sounds like you're talking about everyone on this blog, including yourself

4:33-you're an idiot.

1:23 Who the fuck are you to say that? I'm sure you really know so much about them to know that they are "coke-snorting fools." Someone's a little pissy for no reason at all.
