Saturday, Oct. 13 Matthew Dear's Big Hands Band perform live at the Blind Pig in Ann Arbor with 800beloved and the Javelins.

This will be Matt's only live show in Michigan on the tour, and the first time 800 have played live since the Lager House show with Star (featuring Scott Cortez of Loveliescrushing - the best shoegaze band since My Bloody Valentine) and Dethlab exactly one year ago. Lynch and Co.'s debult LP is finally in the last stages of post-production. It's totally worth the wait - the latest mixes sound amazing. (There's talk of a field trip down to Cedar Point before it closes for the season to shoot some 800beloved music videos. Let me know if you would like to tag along. We're also in need of a reliable 8MM film camera. Please hit me up on teh e-mail: mike@burnlab.net)

Watch for brand new visuals on Matt's tour, created by my partners and I at o2. Mastermind Erick Carlson developed a custom software system which responds in real time to the live music. It was a major team effort compiling imagery and video content, resulting in what promises to be groundbreaking media support for a groundbreaking live act. Huge thanks to Ghostly partner Missing Pieces for the excellnet video content.

Presale discount tickets for next Saturday are availiable directly from Ghostly.
