2010-02-23 Pitchfork: Articles: This Is Not a Mixtape

Tapes never fell completely out of favor among experimental and noise musicians, but their broader underground resurgence appears to reflect a confluence of cultural trends. Instant access to almost any recording has left some of us over-stimulated, endlessly consuming without really digesting what we hear. Many children of the 1980s first owned their music on cassette, so for them the format represents a nostalgia for simpler times; younger kids probably never owned cassettes in the first place, so for them tapes dont have any negative associations. The spread of Internet-enabled smart phones and 24/7 social networking has made work and pleasure increasingly intertwined in our digital existences. Like records, cassettes offer listeners a tangible experience at a time when our jobs, our social lives, and our popular culture are

2009-12-09 Q and A With Chip Davis - Bakersfield News Story - KERO Bakersfield

To do an area show required a huge production: eleven trucks, two buses, two airplanes, and a staff of 150 on the road. We were selling out seats in arenas but we were only just breaking even. The only way we made our margin was by selling CDs in the lobby. So now we have two bands on the road playing to 2,500 seat theaters. We now have a more intimate show. I think it makes the audience feel really into the show. We are performing right on top of the audience. I think you can really communicate when youre playing right to the audience that closely. We still do lots of projections. But now we just need two trucks, one bus. Because of this, we are able to scale the ticket prices back.
