“A Joint Set Of All New Material Jams Eternal”

That’s what Dan Deacon has promised (via a MySpace Bulletin yesterday) when, on Sunday, July 20th, the final night of Baltimore collective Wham City’s very own Whartscape fest, he collabs live with Gregg Gillis (aka Girl Talk) and Naeem Juwan (aka MC Spank Rock).

It’s unclear which show that day will bring the three men simultaneously onto the same stage (both an afternoon and a separate evening show cap the 4-day blowout) or what the name of this Supergroup is (can your SAK Correspondent suggest The Charm City Rollers?) but the fact that this remains largely unposted across the indie rock blogosphere until now is slightly baffling, as anything 12 hours old seems ancient when you’re typing it into Wordpress.

Update: The name of this super group? That’s surely what you’re asking your SAK Correspondent: Well, Who Is The Tunafish Man? Of course.

Dan’s Bulletin in full:

‘in addition to my set and greggs trey told em set on sunday july 20, at whartscape, gregg gillis (girltalk), naeem juwan (spankrock) and i (dan deacon) will be doing a joint set of all new material jams eternal.

gregg and i have been talking about doing a band together for some time and i’m really excited naeem is going to be a part of it for this rad first birth. hopefully our sick jams turn out sick. tickets are still available but close to selling out. getting tickets would be safer than just showing up.

ok baltimore, see you soooooon

also “get funky”
