Pygmalion schedule changes, Emeralds and new Erin Fein project added
Pygmalion has made some changes to its schedule (and two additions) — definitely for the better, in our opinion. Here's a quick run through of the changes, followed by an updated schedule.
• The Built to Spill show on Wednesday night has been moved back an hour to help accommodate those wanting to see both Janelle Monae and Built To Spill. Capacity limitations still may apply.
• Caribou will perform at the Canopy Club on Saturday night along with new lineup addition [and touring partner] Emeralds. The Cleveland-based ambient/kraut group is touring behind the excellent What Happened, so this won't be one to miss. Single tickets for this show go on sale TODAY at 5 p.m.
• Cap'n Jazz will perform Saturday night at Stage 5 in Krannert Center, instead of Canopy Club. This is now a FREE show.
• Psychic Twin, a new project featuring Erin Fein of Headlights / Absinthe Blind, will perform on Thursday night at the Canopy Club prior to Surfer Blood.
• The show on Friday night at Caffe Paradiso featuring Colour Revolt, Pomegranates and Gold Motel has been moved to the Canopy Club, and will now begin at 6 p.m. Single tickets for this show go on sale TODAY at 5 p.m.
• Saturday's late show at Mike 'N Molly's has been dissolved into the other shows at the festival. Additionally, The Dirty Feathers will now perform at Canopy Club instead of Cowboy Monkey.
• If you purchased an individual ticket to the Cap'n Jazz show at Canopy Club, refunds will be issued by Etix (if you purchased online) and Canopy Club (if you purchased physically).

An attack site????? What does that even mean????
Psychic Twin is an exciting addition.

I’m a little concerned that Cap’n Jazz will draw a big crowd on that small stage, but hey, it’s free.
guest
why is the cap n jazz show free now? its kind of garbage for the people who supported early by buying passes and tix mainly because of this show.
I am not quite sure how offering free shows to the public is garbage, but you know, I’ll respond anyhow.
Each year, we try to present a couple of free concerts in conjunction with Pygmalion Music Festival so that folks can enjoy it, even if they don’t want to see everything, and moreover, because some folks don’t have the discretionary income to spend on even a show or two.
That said, if you bought a pass early, great. You still get to see Cap’n Jazz. And you still have tickets to Built to Spill, Janelle Monae, of Montreal, Surfer Blood, Fang Island, Those Darlins, Cults, Turbo Fruits, Plastician, Colour Revolt, Cut Chemist, Owen, +–{Plus/Minus}, Roky Erickson w/ Okkervil River, Ted Leo, Caribous, Royal Bangs, etc etc etc.
So, I am not sure how it matters whether or not it’s at Krannert for free or whether it’s at Canopy, for $15. Either way, you win, I think.
my biggest concern is what a pit in krannert will be like.

My biggest concern is that the free Caribou show at the Krannert is now not at the Krannert and no longer free. But then, I guess if that’s my biggest concern, then I’m doing pretty well—at least I still have potable water! Still, I would prefer it if next year Pygmalion made more of an effort to be about me and my needs.
miles
can i point out that this is the only schedule that emeralds are listed on.
http://schedule.pygmalionmusicfestival.com/ does not mention them, and says that dirty feathers are playing at 11:40—ten minutes after the schedule in this post has emeralds taking the stage.
they aren’t even pictured on the main pygmalion page.
Well, at the time this article was posted, Emeralds were on the festival. They are no longer playing.

oh, well not to be too critical, but it seems like announcing this might have been fair.
happened to be looking forward to that one in particular.

Yay! Love this! Welcome to the family!
that last photo’s a doozie, Chris. good work.
that city center house show was one of those life-affirming things.

I also got to visit Big Grove Tavern during the soft open and definitely enjoyed the pork belly the most of all the dishes I sampled. The cheesy grits and the vinegary pickled vegetables were a perfect compliment to the rich pork belly.
The Alan Partridge lookalike on the right in the first small photo has nothing to condescend to anyone about. AH HA!
Snell and the little Hitlers of the neighborhood association need to chill out. Legitimate businesses should have the freedom to exist without having to endure the slings and arrows of ignorant and misguided opposition.

This makes me so sad. (Happy to live in Urbana, though!) Crave Truck has been a GREAT addition to the food choices in C-U, and it’d be a travesty to chase them away. This town should be supporting small businesses. I’m glad to hear that they’ll still…

And without bloodshed. Sounds like the Savoy trustees aren’t as narrow-minded as some of their whiny pants constituents. Do you think quack Snell is already planning an asinine counterattack or is he still laying low after those “threats” against his person?
hey, if hair ain’t gon’ be over your head, my jokes may as well be.
Okay, almost 24 hours later and I finally got Issac’s Summer joke. I’m an idiot.
Excellent. I am glad sometimes American dreams are encouraged, rather than stifled.
Swap the dog for a fire pit and it sounds like you’re writing about my back yard. Very nice.
funny, as your summer begins, another Summer ends.
