I saw them at a festival in 2009 and it was not the right environment. Hope it is a good show for you.

I tried with FF but they are all a bit too FJM for me.

Technically, FJM is too Fleet Foxes

I usually can only stomach 2-3 FF songs in a row. I've never sat through a release of theirs.

I ended up drinking at a bar down the street from mine instead of going to the free Fleet Foxes show.

Sounds like a better time than a Fleet Foxes show.

The could be read as both Foo Fighters and Fleet Foxes

man, i totally dig the Fleet Foxes, but i guess that comes as no surprise since i get mercilessly bashed for liking FJM too.
nothing better than sitting outside on the stoop on a nice saturday evening, drinking a cold one and maybe grilling some burgers, and listening to some Fleet Foxes.
but agreed, i don't really care to see them in concert.

They actually packed the place, and Sherman is pretty decently sized
It was a really good show as well.. I was saying in the stp thread, I wonder the % of people in attendance that didn't know Scott even died and that wasn't him

Cancel show
Smaller venue
Ticket prices drop
Nothing
I know many of you are dying to find out what happened here...
The tix I wanted started at $100 each plus fees. I just grabbed better seats than I originally planned for at $65 each plus fees.

My wife and I went with my brother and his wife to see Mary Coughlan play last night. Just her, a lead guitarist and upright bass player. She was simply amazing.
It was a small hall, perhaps 250 people there, everyone had a seat, and that voice... Wow.
I'm a bit shocked that she didn't play a bigger venue though, but they did a terrible job of getting the info out that she was even in town it seems. Regardless, she deserves to be heard by so many more.
Great songs, great stories. She's certainly lived a life.

Eaux Claires IV is next weekend. Literally no advance information has been made available. No lineup. No schedule. No logistical stuff. At first that approach seemed kinda cool, now it's annoying. I want to be more excited. I would not be shocked if there's like ~300 people there and it's just Justin Vernon and Aaron Dessner laptop jamming for two days.
