2 shows tonight @ Brooklyn Bowl, 1 last night in Medord NJ...

Dan Deacon in Medford, NJ - Aug 1, 2009

Dan Deacon, Deerhunter, and No Age were supposed to play a 'round robin' show in the giant space that is the Williamsburg Waterfront today. Due to rain, that 'Pool Party' got moved to Brooklyn Bowl which only holds around 600 people. That meant a lot of people were going to get shut out, so they awesomely added a 2nd show (also ALL AGES).

The late shows starts at 10pm. Everyone from the 6pm early show will leave, and then they'll start letting people in for the late show. Those who are on line for the early show, but don't make it in, will get wristbands that guarantees them a spot for the late show.

"When we talked with No Age's Randy Randall recently, he explained that his band's forthcoming tour with Dan Deacon and Deerhunter wouldn't simply be a round robin, with each band taking turns. Instead, all three bands will collaborate on a seamless piece of music, with everyone helping out with everyone else's songs: "We're looking to really kind of meld together the ideas that currently exist in one band's song, and then augment them, either by having other members play together or adding something new to the song that'll transition to another song. So you'll still hear Deerhunter and Dan Deacon and No Age songs, but they'll be boosted in a way by having other members play in them as well." [Pitchfork]

A total of seven of these collaborative dates have been announced, and one is in Pennsylvania, one is in New Jersey, and one is in Brooklyn, NY.

The Brooklyn show is Sunday, August 2nd at "Jelly Space 2009". That of course means it will be a free show at the Williamsburg Waterfront! The NJ show is one night earlier, and... HERE! Maybe there will be Pool Parties again this summer afterall..

Pitchfork also notes that, "Unless otherwise noted, Dan Deacon will do all the [other] shows below with his ensemble, which means there's going to be a ton of dudes onstage at these shows.". All dates for all three bands below...
