Ayo, just wanted to give you guys a quick update on the situation here at BAL. Well first off, its winter, which sucks balls since we clearly prefer to cover outdoor shows, especially the free kind. Second off, we’re all pretty busy with our own lives right now, we like to go to shows when we can but don’t always have the time. The brick ass weather does not help much either.

But that doesn’t mean we’ve given up on the site. Actually, we’ve been sitting on a lot of stuff that we haven’t gotten around to releasing, mainly because we simply don’t have the time to work on it. For example, we have some great video of Kurt Vile, probably the best stuff anywhere, which we just haven’t had the time to mix. We also know you guys have been bitching about the rest of the Animal Collective show. I may or may not have good footage left from this show, but more importantly, the audio was some of the most challenging stuff we’ve ever encountered. It’s going to take hours and hours of work to mix it correctly, and right now we just don’t have the time to do it. Hopefully, we’ll get around to all this stuff and more in the coming weeks and months. Thanks to everyone who has left us supportive comments, we really appreciate the feedback and in the end, it really motivates us to get things moving again. Thanks and keep checking back!

BTW – if any of you happen to be audio mixers or engineers, and want to give BAL a hand, send us an e-mail with some of the work you’ve done and we’ll take it from there. You’d be doing us and everyone else who comes to this site a huge favor by taking some of the load off our backs.
