Formed in 1976, The Feelies became known for their powerful layered guitar sounds that became major influences for early underground and indie rock bands such as R.E.M. The band never reached great heights in terms of popularity and disbanded in 1992 after releasing four albums including the critcally acclaimed Crazy Rhythms. They reunited for a tour last summer and are slated to perform Crazy Rhythms in it’s entirety at this September’s All Tomorrow’s Parties in New York City.
Chicago’s experimental-dub out fit Icy Demons will open.
The show begins at 7:30 p.m. and runs until 9:30 p.m. tonight at the Jay Pritzker Pavilion.

it says 7:30-9:30 on the park’s site. i thought last week was 6:30, though. i’m hoping 7:30 tonight since that’s when i plan on going
Hmm…weird. Yeah, all the Downtown performances so far have been from 6:30-8:30pm, but I guess this one is moved back since The Feelies are sort of a big deal. Updated the post, by the way.
wow. the feelies sounded really good and the crowd was more than enthusiastic. 2 encores
Unfortunately, I didn’t make it to the show. Nice to hear they were well received, however.
