Music Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks on the Roof
Posted by Ned Lannamann on Fri, Sep 30, 2011 at 11:29 AM
Taking a cue from the B Sharps (that joke never gets old), Stephen Malkmus and his band of Jicks took to a sort-of apocalyptic looking rooftop in New York City to play for Pitchfork's "Don't Look Down" series. They played a batch of songs from the great new Mirror Traffic, including the tune above, "Tiger." Guitarist Mike Clark did some acrobatic stunt work as well, climbing up onto some kind of large frame structure thingy and playing his part from up there.
End Hits: Oh god, don't fall... pleasepleaseplease don't fall...
