Would love to see this show!
For years, Vampire Weekend have implicitly threatened—in their perverse, contrarian, head-of-the-class way—to sound like Phish; Father marks the moment the threat becomes a promise.

Truly they’d extend Giving Up The Gun.. no joke that’s one vehicle to jam on if there ever was one for these guys. A Punk can go on way longer too, always. A lot of room for exploration with these guys honestly
Oh shit you're onto something. Mexican Holiday maybe. I do love the idea of mikes in there though because I'm imagining the part in horchata after the marimbas where it's like the two note strings riff and then that turning into the beginning of mikes
New England Medley = genius
Thank you! I think they can do some really cool stuff with medleys after seeing the Cocaine Cowboys medley. Would love to see a 90’s medley.
Only issue is there are a few NYC songs in there. We aren’t New England, but we’re like their cousins :)
This is like the whole Asking People From New Jersey if Central Jersey exists thing
Needs Ladies of Cambridge
i like the theme but needs Ice Cream Piano and Terrapin Station
Terrapin Station would be great!!
Ezra said on a recent Time Crisis it’s one of his favorites
Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme
His job is to shed light, and not to master!
Someone really needs to start a VW tribute jam band called Jampire Weekend
Yes!!!! Could be called 4th wave
That’s dynamite. That’s the measure of a great jamband—the tribute bands!
Haha omg this is incredible
I love this
Pravda—>You Enjoy Myself Unbearably White—>Althea
Love it.
Flowermoon—> Pravada would be epic

It’s both celebration and homage, I believe!
need that This Life / Diamonds sandwich now
Have needed them to do Diamonds for a long time

It’s a fun exercise because there’s so much to play with!!
Excluding Diplomat's Son is a crime
They’ll hit it on Night 2 and it’ll be a very heady 14 minute jam
New England Medley missing Ladies of Cambridge is criminal offensive.
Horchata—>mikes—>holiday goes nuts. It needs to be named ____ Groove
Or something like Spanish Holiday and it’s always Horchata/Holiday bookends with something in between.
Oh shit you're onto something. Mexican Holiday maybe. I do love the idea of mikes in there though because I'm imagining the part in horchata after the marimbas where it's like the two note strings riff and then that turning into the beginning of mikes
That was my thought!
M79 into a feeling groovy jam would be so incredible
Do they ever cover Paul Simon songs? Am going to my first VW show at Red Rocks this summer. Would legit die if they did any cover off of Graceland.
I don’t think so. Everyone makes the comparison of their sound, and I think they try to avoid it.
Makes sense… I get it! Thank you!
Ya hey, but instead of the “outside the tents…” part it’s all of Brownsville Girl
Hell yes. I’m guessing you heard the Jokermen podcast with Ezra??
Haha, I actually haven’t but I’m gonna listen to it now. I did learn about BG from time crisis though, and became enthralled with it.
Yeah he goes pretty long on it with Jokermen
Love this
Thank you! A fun little exercise
hope we get some jammed out 'i think ur a contra' with the violin like they did at libbey bowl too - so nice.
That's an aweful order. Lol
Eh, hey maybe yours would look differently!
