Photos: Dirty Projectors / No Kids [Los Angeles, CA; 04/12/08]
Photos by Sung Kim
Dave Longstreth and his Dirty Projectors continued to fly their Black Flags high at Los Angeles' Echo over the weekend, playing yet another gig on what feels like a never-ending tour in support of the still fantastic Rise Above.
Let's hope those pickin' fingers aren't tired yet, as the Projectors still have a good month's worth of shows ahead of them, including a couple more with tourmates No Kids (who also opened the Echo show). Find them at not one but two Pitchfork-affiliated events in the days to come as well: May's ATP vs. Pitchfork blowout and this summer's Pitchfork Music Festival. We must like this band or something!
