Sweet, sweet sweet!! Looks like next year is going to be full of great new releases. I'm excited about this Air news!

That means I'll have it in february.

Air will most likely be at Coachella, then--especially considering it's going to be three days this year.

I think it was Slipvin who mentioned the solo work of one of the Air guys... something about it sounding like a mix between Talkie Walkie and Virgin Suicides. I'm sure he'll come clarify/correct me if my memory has failed or I'm out of place.
