Ludwig Von Drake Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Reading Pitchfork this afternoon and apparently Slint is scheduled to play Primavera Sound Festival in Spain, and apparently they're going to perform Spiderland in its entirety at this festival. Maybe it's just me, but isn't this backwards for them to do, since they sold their equipment on eBay in 2005? I thought the idea was that they sold the equipment for charity and then used it as a way of saying, "We're done!" I don't get it. Can someone explain to me the logic going on here?

LouieB Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Maybe they need the money... LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spawn's dad Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 if spain were closer I'd totally see that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ludwig Von Drake Posted January 18, 2007 Author Share Posted January 18, 2007 Maybe they need the money... LouieB I never thought of that. I suppose it could be possible that despite being a huge influence on all things post-whatever, they get little money. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brianjeremy Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Maybe they need the money... LouieB I would say that it's exactly the reason. Why else? You really can't argue with them. I may be mistaken, but isn't Pajo the one in the group who has the "best" musical career out of the group? That's not saying much because he lives like a bum from all accounts.

Really is a shame when people of such critical acclaim receive very little of what's due to them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
