Video: Animal Collective @ Pitchfork Music Festival 2011
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oA1UoARSX7w This one will probably get pulled pretty fast so I'd definitely recommend jumping on this video while it's still alive. It's a solid Animal Collective performance front to back if you ask me. Edit this setlist | More Animal Collective setlists

News Fail: Kings of Leon’s ‘Pigeongate’, M.I.A.’s Jarring Live Show, and Panda Bear’s Pitchfork Snoozefest
This weekend was a weird and somewhat disappointing one for live music news (that is, unless you're a String Cheese Incident fan -- more on that shortly). The tragedy being what it is following Love Parade in Germany, I'd hate to highlight something so devastating when there's perhaps a... more
