Was leaning Chems as I think the new album is decent but now being quite heavily tempted towards Daniel Avery in Pangaea as a bit of a curveball! Is it completely mad to think we could see beginning of Chems and wander over? Probably. I think that's eminently do-able, ZMG... Hot Chip record is very 'typical' for me. A few absolutely lush, feel-good electric pop-dance tracks that will get the crowd dancing and smiling on Park. Coupled with a few kind of meh tracks that all their records seem to have. So...stick the crackers in the set alongside their impressive canon of brilliant hits and it should be a euphoric Park Party. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest is pleasant enough but they have not gripped me yet. Think I am going to drive around aimlessly tonight with it on and see how it fairs. Positive is absolutely fantastic though. Absolutely love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chalsey_lodger Posted June 22, 2019 Report Share Posted June 22, 2019 Really liking the new album. Was lucky enough to bag some free tickets to the album launch at xoyo yesterday. I spoke to Joe after the gig and he hinted at a crows nest DJ set around 10ish on the Thursday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan6876 Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 Are they doing 2 sets at or just the one Saturday night at The Park ? Sorry if these has already been asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One. Joe Goddard DJing left, right and centre. Expecting a Crow's Nest slot for him too (when the rest of HC will probably be lurking) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brownie30 Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 This will be the first time I've been to see a Park headliner and extremely excited about it! Any tips on what kind of time to get up to The Park in order to secure a good spot? Would arriving 30 mins before HC are on work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go round the back of the sound desk and in from the left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not seen a ‘Hot Chip DJ set’ for about a decade (and Google isn’t shedding much light). Might be nice to finally make it to the crows nest (and this may keep me more on the straight and narrow than a load of dance music!).

I could be persuaded otherwise but probably Chemical and the lads. Not out of any great desire to see them again, but they might be the best of a bad bunch. Though Sean Paul could prove to be a surprise late contender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered if you were going to give it the old "gives me a good chance to get into the SE corner early" but I reckon those people just post adamantly on here that they're happy about that, but actually just assume the fetal position and weep once they do get in early and nowts going on.

I remember Caribou - Can't Do Without You, showing Al the tweet I'd sent him a few weeks before saying how sad I was I didn't have a ticket as I was gonna miss LCD, and saying to him "But I managed to get here after all!!" and him reaching over and giving me a massive hug, Prince - Controversy, dancing with Sarah and the boys, Joe having a turn on the decks and announcing Remain was gonna win the referendum, and a Hot Chip supermix at the end. It was just the right amount of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikkic Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Anybody else at Ally Pally last night? Thought they were excellent. Visuals and lasers were unreal. Think I’ve seen them 7 times now and that was probably the 2nd best. (With the first being WH 2015 which is likely to remain untouched at number 1, as @FloorFiller said the other day, it was life affirming stuff). I like the new record, but prime Hot Chip is live Hot Chip, not many can match them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian the worm Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Didn’t have lasers at Bristol on Monday, but we did have two of their kids helping with percussion for the last song. I recon that’s my 9th or 10th Spot the kid in the picture.... time I’ve seen them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
