I was there. It was a KCRW (npr station in Santa Monica) show with Deerhoof, Fallou Dieng, and Gnarls Barkley...."international night" or something...strange line up. Went with my grandma, she liked it.
I hugged Ed after their show in Calgary during the Sled Island festival. I couldn't help it. He's so affable! I also tried to hug Satomi, but she was afraid of me. Perhaps it was the germs, I don't know. Also, she's so small. I felt I could accidentally crush her. Greg and John were elsewhere, so I would have tried to hug them as well. It has long been a desire for me to hug Deerhoof, and now that I have hugged one quarter of Deerhoof it is still a desire for me to hug Deerhoof. And you?
watching the audience at this gig is hilarious, it's like the opposite of all the other deerhoof shows i've seen... they're paying no attention to the band, whereas at all the other shows, the audience seems to be trying their hardest to communicate with the band by participating as much as possible through the performance...
you know, he makes a good point about chris's playing style - for better or worse, on runners four his basslines have a distinctly plodding and deliberately messy sound which you don't hear in later recordings.
DEERHOOF: the band's claim to fame is being an unpaid support act for the mult-million dollar Grammy award winning band called the Red Hot Chili Peppers lol

Deerhoof empties the trash in my brain
