We're still blasting Doomtree's first collective LP No Kings, but we're glad to see that the unbridled joy of "Bangarang" isn't limited to the daily struggle against traffic. The chemistry of the crew is so heightened, it's awesome enough to hear them all on the same track, let alone all in the same room rocking a karaoke machine and grinning from ear to ear as they cry the collective chorus.

Don't worry I'd still post obscure twit-pics and one-liners from @hypefloats. Anyoo the potential set-list of performers slated to show if they don't get to high on Hydrocodone and miss their ...
