Stereolab live at Pitchfork Music Festival 2019 (Full HD)

[@normthebaker7305]

I think by not replacing Mary it's their way of reminding us that's she's no longer there and could never be replaced. Bravo Stereolab.

[@wesleywiggins3402]

She's certainly irreplaceable. I can hear her.

[@alsamuef]

But she can be replaced. Move on

[@chrisgugino1957]

@@alsamuef bands are like weird little families. my respect goes out to any band who recognizes the integrity of a particular member and doesn't replace them (even though i'm more partial to the fugazi method of just breaking up if all the original members aren't on board).

I miss Mary so much. She was there the first few times I saw the band and it's still hard to listen to the songs she was on without her. Still miss her even on songs she didn't sing on the albums. Added so much to the sound.

Yes.. Mary still is in my ears when hearing this song.. maybe somewhere, sometime.. meantime Stereolab live rocks!!!

[@marioluizdesa]

I LOVE Stereolab! One of my 10 top bands ever!

[@TalonBX]

Infinity Girl is a perfect pop song, and they do it great justice in this performance.

[@mg-yl1uv]

Saw them about 2 decades earlier when Mary was still with them. Loved her voice. Still a great band. They took Krautrock , Brazilian 60s pop and created something new and beautiful.

[@vittorioderoberties2110]

Oh, how I loved and still love Stereolab.

[@markolehtinen75]

Such a great band! I saw them live and interviewed them for a newspaper in around 1997... And they signed my «Switched On» LP in a very special way: I kept the record in a thick plastic sleeve and they painted a big psychedelic picture on the protection sleeve that suited the cover below... Of course I still have it. :-)

[@xtan150]

Pics!

[@synthmalicious7541]

Do you have a picture of the record?

Stellar set, incredible drumming.

[@wlouisharris]

Yah, really is. Stereolab is really tightening the screws. I saw some videos of earlier shows in the tour and it sounded loose.

[@brianlee6709]

He's such a machine. I had a whole, new respect for Andy after seeing them for the first time on tour for Dots and Loops. Looking forward to seeing them soon with Bitchin Bajas!

[@dougsmith7083]

He's a metronome Underrated

[@JS-wi9mw]

yeah he's a beast on the drums! funky when he needs to be too!

[@WSS_the_OG]

You know, it's his drumming on Dots and Loops that brought me here. I'm surprised so little of him on the web; he's terribly under-rated / unknown for all his talent.

[@MoogerTuber]

Kudos to the guys for those backing vocals. It's not easy!

[@dravafox]

they must feel a dark sad twinge every time they have to sing Mary's lines...

[@kennylogue7947]

Think happy thoughts, think happy thoughts. You know this was hard for some of them to do without Mary. Or so I would think.

[@cocosnack5183]

i love hearing Laetitia say thank you, we love you to! (it warms my heart)

[@lucianonotarfrancesco4443]

I love how they are not ashamed of replacing a Minimoog or Voyager with a Korg Minilogue, or substituting the glorious Vox Continental with a cheap Yamaha Reface YC. They are beyond phony nostalgia, they are the real shit. And makes practical sense too, since vintage analog instruments are not very reliable (I remember an interview where they complain about the Vox Jaguar for example).

[@lMlusashi]

was thinking the same thing

[@markboyd9275]

Luciano Notarfrancesco I have a Vox Jag & its a very frustrating instrument.

[@inversion66]

Vintage keyboards make more of a difference in a studio, versus a gig where the sound will never be perfect.

[@JensPaldam]

Could be they are put off by how costly it is to insure their vintage synths for the road. But yeah, I agree there is a lot of integrity and coolness in going on stage with cheap equipment and making it sound great :)

[@donnyrover1]

Great to see them enjoying it , still out there as one of the greatest bands

[@dgetzin]

This is tighter and better than they ever did it live back in the 90s. Tim and Andy are all over Laetitia’s vocals though still at times unsteady are the best she has ever performed. This is not a pumpkin style nostalgia reunion. They have come to kick ass. And for this home town crowd of sorts in Chicago, this helps make up for the final (HORRIBLE Post sound-dust years) of recording.

[@constantinflux]

12:28 A guitarists horror, when your fx chain breaks down 10 minutes into the set. Finishing the song while troubleshooting live on stage, 18:43 swapping amps, 20:10 excluding elements from the chain, cables, 20:41 ruling out instrument. Stressful. After Tim ruled everything but his stompbox chain out, 22:03 he then choose to bypass fx and he is back. Then at 30:57 for example use the amps means of manipulating sound. Reverb, EQ, Tremolo (maybe). Goes to show what an awesome guitarist he is!
