Guided by Voices Performing 'Long Live the Weekend' Live at Matador at 21

Date: October 2, 2010

On October 2, 2010, Guided by Voices delivered a memorable performance at the Matador at 21 event. At this point in their career, the band was basking in the glow of their 2010 album, "Let's Go Eat the Factory," which marked their return after a long hiatus. This comeback record, their first studio release since 2004, revived the band's indie rock charm, showcasing their knack for catchy melodies and lo-fi aesthetics that had captivated fans for decades. Interestingly, the performance and the album both echoed the band's DIY roots, reflecting the spirit of their early days in the 90s. The buzz surrounding the live show was palpable, as fans were eager to see how their favorite quirky rockers had evolved. It was a celebration of both nostalgia and new beginnings—a fitting essence of what Guided by Voices represents.
