      this doesn't exist anymore even if coronavirus wasn't around. There are no "bands" who focus first and foremost on how their music is played live and develop it from that. Animal Collective would play songs 3-4 years in advance before they would even be heard on a studio album. A band like Animal Collective getting on the Top Billboard charts is a fat 0% chance now.

Secondly, why does the billboard thing matter? One does not need to be a pop star to play respectably large shows

I got to see MGMT twice and even met and chatted with Andrew and James, so other than meeting Ben and perhaps the other members, the bands I want to experience live and hopefully meet are Animal Collective, Shpongle (though it's sad they won't be performing as a full band anymore, but at least there's Simon Posford), and Tame Impala. Let's hope we all get to meet our heroes, one way or another.

    Panda Bear in a 2023 Tone Glow interview:
    "Do you feel like there are things you’ve learned in the process of challenging yourself with the way you sing?
    I feel like there’s been eras of how I’ve tried to sing, or wanted to sing. It’s probably a reflection of where I’m at mentally. I would sing in a kind of wispy, feathery way for a while, and I remember getting really into Scott Walker because his voice came from the stomach. It was way more projected, and very masculine in a way that I liked a lot. I didn’t want to copy him but the spirit of his singing inspired me to go for my own version of that. I think I got more into a croony thing afterwards and I suppose I’m still in that zone.
    When would you say that change happened?
    Probably with Tomboy (2011). So around 2009 or so."
    I feel like his vocal performance during this show really shows this shift in a very excellent way.
