The hottest concert ticket in New York last night was for a spectacular piece of performance art by Animal Collective’s Panda Bear (real name: Noah Lennox). Mr. Bear’s killer solo disc Person Pitch has gotten serious buzz in indie circles — and lots of play at Rock Daily HQ — and it’s one of best psychedelic-pop records so far this year. For over an hour, Lennox stood at his mixing deck, running through altered versions of cuts like “Comfy in Nautica.” Tripped-out projections - hippies making love on a rollercoaster, sharks circling in the sea - loomed large on a projection screen. As did Lennox’s shadow, which made it seem as if a ghost was playing behind the scrim.
