Excited for US fans, although selfishly I'm disappointed as this lowers the chances of a surprise UK DJ set while I'm there in September

omg seriously! Best news I've ever heard this year.

Curious about the unspecified date. Makes me believe they're getting a feeler for multiple days or they're being non-specific as favor to a potential corresponding announcement (Portola Festival).

Regardless, the ~~Knockout~~ Knockdown Center looks dope.

Knockdown was an absolutely wonderful venue when I went there for the DFA anniversary event a few years back. Philip Sherburne wrote once that "a good nightclub should have nooks and crannies, hidden rooms, mysterious passageways" and while I think that's kind of a silly reason to put down a record (as he did there) he's right that it's cool when that's true and the Knockdown Center has some truly great ones. Can't think of a better reason to go back than the Chems being there.

Doing the Lord's work.

I clicked the link in one of the two emails from Knockdown that made it into my junk, and when I realized there was no code included in the email, and clicking 'register' or whatever prompted me to put my phone number, I sadly just closed the tab and went back to what I was supposed to be doing.

How long is a standalone Chems DJ set these days. 3 hours? $60 for an NY headline (DJ) show seems pretty reasonable, no?

How about it's the first exclusive DJ set, in America, for the last 20 years. They have only done 2 other DJ sets in America over that time and they were both at festivals (Coachella 2009 and Miami 2022).
