The embryonic Elephant 6 band Fat Planet’s reunion at Popfest, featuring Robert Schneider, Bill Doss, Will Cullen Hart, Pete Erchick, and Charlie Johnston, is now available for download at Flat Response. It’s the first in a series of Popfest recordings which the blog is hosting, with the plan being that one will be posted each day. (Thanks to Daniella for the photo.) Also expect some high-def video of the performance to surface soon. I’ll get some use out of this “Fat Planet” tag yet.

Fat Planet, one of the embryonic bands of the Elephant 6 collective, made their first post-high school reunion at Little Kings at the 2008 Athens Popfest. Robert Schneider, Bill Doss, and Will Cullen Hart were joined by Pete Erchick (Pipes You See, Pipes You Don’t) and Charlie Johnston (63 Crayons) for an intimate, lively performance. See Rich’s post at Cable & Tweed for the full story; he’s also provided the below videos of the band performing Robert’s old tune “Warm Milk and Chocolate” (the first video is the introduction, the second the song). For photos (like the one above), see Daniella’s/quixoticgoat’s Popfest Flickr set here.
