Default The Mountain Goats in SF

well, more accurately The Mountain Goat. i just went to this event where Tobias Wolfe interviewed John Darnielle for an hour or so, then they performed a song together, then John took questions from the audience, and then he performed 6 or 7 songs. it was pretty excellent. the convo was great because they each seemed to be genuinely excited about/interested in the other's work. highlights for me included Snow Crush Killing Song and Going to Georgia. pretty intense and awesome stuff. my camera battery died, though i id get two videos before this happened. unfortunately, John was nervous early on, and really came to life performing the songs after my camera died. i'l upload them though.

tomorrow he's doing a solo show, going to check that out too.

that's the last vid. i got. in one sense i wish i had been able to capture some of the other songs, they were a lot more compellingly performed, it was intense. but with the dead camera, i was able to be much more in the moment. not sure if i'll get any vid tomorrow, im gonna be going with someone and we'll probably not get there on time and i won't get as good of a seat

got 3 decent vids from tonight, i'll upload tomorrow. it was a wonderful show, full with tons of great stories. he played a few songs that he said he'd be very angry (mostly tongue in cheek though) if people put them on the internet because people would be demanding those songs at other shows on the tour and he didn't want to play them. so i respected that and put the camera away.

thom and i went to see them in austin this past autumn and it was really good, actually significantly better that i had expected, verging on being one of the best concerts that i've ever been to. his bizarre smiling during really depressing songs is pretty f-ing weird, though.
