Kid, in this world, you gotta watch out. See, there’s a sucker born every minute. If you’re not careful, you’re that sucker. Maybe when you were born, your mother asked the doctor if you were a boy or a girl and the doctor was like “Who cares, it’s a sucker.” You’ll never know, you were a baby. Don’t ask your poor mother either. Her blood pressure’s terrible. You want that blood on your hands, kid? I didn’t think so. So get this: Deerhunter’s about to head out on a North American tour. You got it? Heh, if you believe that, I got a bridge to sell you.
Anyway, enjoy your new bridge. Wonderful doing business with you, I think you’ll be very happy with your purchase. The Deerhunter stuff was totally true, too. Buddy, I’d never lie to you, not about Deerhunter at least. Having put out their fifth record, Monomania (TMT Review), mere months ago on 4AD, those Atlanta-based psych-rockers-who-apparently-are-really-getting-into-garage-and-the-Meat-Puppets are hitting the road again for another good long while. Along the way, they’ll hit up some exciting festivals, like Los Angeles’ FYF Fest and Austin’s Fun Fun Fun Fest. Now run along, let nobody scam you.
