Did it totally shock you earlier this summer when it was revealed that Wavves will be opening for Phoenix and Dirty Projectors at Madison Square Garden on October 20? I think Nathan Williams himself was even a little surprised. Apparently Phoenix are just as curious as we are to see how Wavves will function in a large-scale venue, just as we were curious about their large-scale studio venture, King of the Beach (TMT Review), as Phoenix’ve decided to add seven more shows with Wavves to extend their fall tour down the East Coast. Or maybe Thomas Mars just really wanted to pick Williams’ brain about the art direction for Wavves’ new video for “Post Acid.”
