BEPSTEIN AND NICK ON CONAN

you might not be able to tell from listening to us, but at least 2/3's of the max levine ensemble are huge conan o'brien fans and we've been trying to get on the show for the better part of a decade. you may remember when we submitted a video of ourselves covering an old conan o’brien sketch about 8 years ago:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evtXQNmG_OY

or maybe you remember when we met la bamba (of conan's house band) while attending a taping of the show on tour:

well, last night, in a dream come true, bepstein and nick were on the show in conan’s “fan corrections” segment debating the merits of small cap fund mutual investments and the OLD SWITCHEROO! check it out here: http://teamcoco.com/video/fan-correction-ol-slipperoo

The Max Levine Ensemble - Poop Farm How To Build An Intergalactic Time Machine | 2003 (Plan-It-X)

[spillband]

Well hey, here’s a flier for a show whose very existence hangs in a deeply delicate balance. If somehow you didn’t catch it from your facebook feed or your darkly uninteresting coworkers’ office banter, it should snow QUITE A BIT in Baltimore tomorrow afternoon. It’s a real bummer because, not only were we real excited for this show, but we’re also trying to play as much as possible over the next few months to help cover our sxsw trip, LP recording, and our upcoming May european tour (more on that later). Not to mention that we played this venue a few months ago during a goddamn hurricane, so I don’t really know what our deal is. That was also the night I found out that Tim Kinsella is now an EDM artist. It was a real trip.

Anyway, weather misery aside, you should listen to some of the million songs put out by Big Eyes and check out the excellent new video by The Max Levine Ensemble. And hey, I didn’t check out Post Pink until now but- turns out they’re pretty dope. Ugh. Can we just schedule a do-over for tomorrow? 

oh and ps- we’re playing the inaugural show at Lancaster PA’s NEW DIY SPACE this sunday w/ Oso Oso and Prince Daddy & The Hyena. Shit’ll be hot and hype all over. God these bands are good. And shit, we’re playing with Diet Cig in harrisburg next Friday too. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE, PEOPLE
