An oddly delicate self portrait of Pigeon David (Dave) has leaked to the general public, and is causing many in the Phat Lands to scratch their heads and squint slightly. This story has developed into quite a who-knows-what. It’s like piecing together a jigsaw puzzle of a picture of a pile of jigsaw puzzle pieces, with many pieces missing – from both puzzles. There is an obvious challenge there, and you may actually even want to care, but you just can’t be bothered. Here is a comprehensive break-down of the event as it has unfolded:
Oh, what a tweek (twitter week, and yes, I believe I just coined that) it’s been in the Phatlands. Dears Fans who follow Dears Tweets and/or Dears Re-Tweets may have noticed an almost eerie turn of events following Pigeon Phat’s recent sojourn into the studio to record what many may one day refer to as their most accessible experimental album.
It seems a Pigeon Phat superfan named @jaguarpantera has finally gotten to us by following The Dears on Twitter. Who knows how long she’s been searching, scraping, and trolling her way through interlife before opening a twitter account and, I don’t know, searching for “montreal bands” or whatever, before stumbling on The Dears and then looking through their tweets to see if they mentioned us, or hash tagged us or @ symboled us.
She might have actually used the search bar at the top. Just typed Pigeon Phat? All as one word? In any case, it might have been days. You know, it’s funny; four years ago, nobody had even heard of Pigeon Phat, and now we’re being retweeted about by probably beautiful girls who love The Dears and various wildcats. I hate to use a word like Fame. However, this is fame. As in, “Famous”.
And, I think I just found her on facebook.
In the past, Pigeon Phat related tweeting was solely written by ourselves, friends, family or by someone working directly with the band. For example, well-known area promoter Evan Dubinsky tweeted these kind words after hearing us sound check. Had he not been standing there at the back of the venue at that moment, the tweet would never have been twat-ed. “I just wish I had known about their brilliance earlier.” – Hinting to our inexistence in popular culture.
Is this a sign of things to come for Pigeon Phat? Who knows. But one thing is for sure, this is one little bird that is all the chirp in the Internet’s largest flock; Twitter.com
