I never really thought that Dan Deacon was a 'real musician.' From what I understand, he is just a 'performance artist', and his music seems pretty simple and random, so I am confused as to why he was selected to score the next Francis Ford Coppola film. I feel like maybe Coppola was like "my daughter is bros with Phoenix, and Spike Jonez is bros with the Arcade Fire, so maybe I have to start a working relationship with an indie band." Feel like Deacon isn't really aligned with his brand.

Dan Deacon has been tapped by Francis Ford Coppola to score his next film, Twixt Now and Sunrise, due later this year. The gothic romance stars Val Kilmer, Bruce Dern, Ben Chaplin & Elle Fanning. In addition to scoring the film, Mr. Coppola and Mr. Deacon are collaborating on a larger level, details of which will be announced soon.

Do yall wish some1 could build a time machine so that Dan Deacon could go back in time 2 score the Godfather/Apocalypse Now?

Is this movie 'doomed'? Will it 'flop'?
Is Francy Ford 'past his prime'?
Is Dan Deacon an 'artistic genius'?
Do u think he can handle 'scoring' a relevant movie?

Is Dan Deacon one of the ultimate entry level alt 'live music experiences'?
Should Francis Ford Coppola quit making film and focus on his wine business?

I feel like F. Ford Cupola is trying to no longer be mstrm since his last movie 'Paul Blart' was not well-rcv'd.

ABSOLUTELY TRUE STORY I was

ABSOLUTELY TRUE STORY

I was visiting my brother in Baltimore over Christmas and I saw Dan Deacon at the Starbucks on Charles Street, right by the UB campus. He was wearing one of those Mexican fabric ponchos and a disgustingly dingy white tee shirt beneath it. Sitting by the window, just talking to some hipster bro like it wasn't a thang. I wanted to say "hey" or take a picture but I didn't wanna be "that" "guy"

All these bro's think Deacz is from B'alt-imore when he's really a Long Island bro.

Finally met a chick I can appreciate Sofia Coppola movies with but her friends sell headbands and carry round big coke mirrors at dub step nite.

Too old for all this shit. Gotta stop looking back, bro.
