+WolfParadeFans "I'm dreaming in your waiting room." This guy has such great lyrics.
I'll listen to anything from Dan. The guy is a hugely underrated musical genius. I only liked Wolf Parade for what Dan contributed (same with Divine Fits). Operators is the perfect band because he gets to do it all. And Devojka is the perfect complement to him...even though I wish she was still rocking her previous hairdo. ;)

+crunchb3rry Check out Handsome Furs if you haven't already. Another project slanted more towards Dan's songwriting.

+crunchb3rry Agree that he's highly underrated but Spencer is a genius too and the news of Wolf Parade being a thing again is fucking fantastic.

+crunchb3rry Listen harder to Divine Fits. Britt is one of the few modern rock "stars" who has Dan beat.

Interesting... I actually wasn't as big on Divine Fits as I was Handsome Furs. I actually think Operators is his best outing yet and they're even one of my favorite bands altogether at this point. Still, Wolf Parade EP4 is awesome and I'm happy they're back together, I just hope it doesn't mean less of this group!

Dan and Spencer together are the best, Spencer is a genius..in my opinion
Dan in a suit looks like Bradford Cox going to a costume party as Nick Cave.

It was grammatically fine and inconspicuous until you chose to further volunteer information of it lol ♡
I just saw them in Atlanta and I will say to anyone, "it's a show worth seeing." Like the Grand Canyon or Mona Lisa, no video or photo can reproduce what that experience was like. Maybe one of the best shows I've ever seen.

+Andrew Clock Free thinking. Free people. The lyric "Another year, another year of elections..." has me wondering about Boekner's take.

+Andrew Clock I'm a gay, gun-owning, professional and I meet more people all the time. People are coming around but we're definitely the minority. I will say, people have started coming to me on matters political because they think I understand it. I am trying to find the best way of getting the message out.

I got the set list from this show! Had a conversation with Dan after the show, he's such a humble and down to earth guy.

Matt DeMilner We had a very similar experience. He talked with me and some friends and let us get a picture instagram.com/p/BEU_fKpNRwj/?taken-by=facereplacer Very humble and approachable on top of amazingly talented.
I've seen this band more times than I've wanted to.
Space needle is one beautiful song.
outstanding
coolest thing ever
Mmmh, That hits the spot. What a performance. Wow!
Elliptical is called Control on the album
Oh this is so industrial-delicious. I sense a lot of PM/Bauhaus influence. Those synths are really good too.
lovin it
excellent
I could trip to this.
Großartig! Love it!
Good Tunes.
Tight! Tight! Tight!
this is so much better than most new-coming hipster/poser bands we usually see on KEXP and forget about the same day
Oh hell yes!
awesome. It reminds me of Fad Gadget
Dig this shit, so hard.
Fuck yeah. That is all
this is awesome, thx :D
Good stuff. Love his vocals. Has a bit of a retro 80's vibe to it, in all the right ways. I didn't realize this was the same guy who teamed up with Britt Daniel to form Divine Fits. Talented guy.
Love his old group now this is fuckin great he looks like a cross of Steve Buscemi and Peter Murphy.
if nicholas cage and javier bardem had a baby.......this guy

I'm sorry I'm only now seeing that. I'll have to have my husband read it. :)
genial
He is just (sadly) one of the last true musicians, who show all the skills and emotions on stage...One of the reasons, why I honestly think Wolf Parade is the best band of all at the moment
9:50 lol

Fuckin brilliant.
Wolf Parade are coming back, finally!
Holy fuck...
The brilliant Australian band The Church has a song named Space Needle, featured on their 2009 album Untitled #23.... maybe these Operator guys were 'influenced'.... certainly unusual for two different bands to come up with such a unique song title

I can see it a little bit, a Roxy Music/LCD Soundsystem hybrid.
first song on the setlist is Control, i think ,not Elliptical..
Nicolás Cage singing?!!! Wow
this guy is a good psycho singer
The keyboard player is cute!
I wonder how many songs dan's wrote
Little bit of Metallica at the 10 minute mark
