Guided By Voices Performs Hot Freaks Live at Hopscotch Music Festival
In September 2011, Guided by Voices delivered an electrifying performance at the Hopscotch Music Festival in Raleigh, North Carolina. This live recording, dubbed 'Hot Freaks,' came just after the release of their album 'Let's Go Eat the Factory' earlier that year. This album marked a triumphant return for the band, showcasing their classic lo-fi rock sound while introducing a fresh burst of creativity. It's interesting to note that this performance was declared the band's final show with the lineup that included singer Robert Pollard, generating a mix of nostalgia and excitement among fans. Their ability to craft catchy, off-kilter songs was on full display that night, blending both new material and fan favorites, creating an unforgettable atmosphere for all in attendance.
