Nice! Have fun.

I have great memories of seeing The Decemberists and Fleet Foxes (separate shows) at the Metro. For the Decemberists we found ourselves unexpectedly in possession of VIP passes, and got to go to an after-party with the band on the upper level of the venue.

Great show last night. They were really tight. I love what they do with some of the songs live. And the drummer is a beast. He reminds a lot of Dave A. with how hard he hits. The only complaint is that I'm not too keen on the way Adam changes up the melody on a lot of the songs. Sometimes I just wish he would sing like he does on the album. But overall, great show.

9. Under the Pressure
10. In Reverse
11. Baby Missiles
12. Burning
13. Lost in the Dream
14. Buenos Aires Beach

They've been working on an album, haven't they? Didn't the bass player who was on the Vitalogy-ology podcast mention that?

Another new one. Thats three now. 2 out of 3 are top notch.

Really looking forward to this.

Though, i miss the days of maybe hearing 1 single and a b side before hearing the new album? Feels like these days you'll hear 3-5 before its even released.
