Saw their show in Portland last week; everyone's already talked about how good their live shows are, but it was absolutely pouring rain for the entire show and I think it added something special. Frightened Rabbit was really good as an opening act, too! Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks:

http://pitchfork.com/news/53373-watch-the-national-and-gregg-allman-sing-silver-bells-on-the-colbert-report/pitchfork posted:This week is "Christmas Carol Week" on "The Colbert Report", which finds Stephen Colbert doing a Christmas carol with a special guest each night. To kick things off, Colbert joined the National and Gregg Allman for a rendition of "Silver Bells" last night. I cant watch it because I am in Canada, and my vpn is acting goofy, but figured some of you might be interested. On a side note after nagging my buddy at work for years to to listen to this band he finally picked up Trouble Will Find Me after hearing Don't Swallow the Cap on the new indy station in toronto a million times. Now he feels stupid for not going to the free NXNE show they did. I told him he would live to regret that day when he said he didn't want to go.

It was pretty cool Matt, Gregg and Stephen each did a verse and they all harmonized the chorus.

Aw man, they aren't coming here. Closest they're coming is Austin for ACL. Hopefully they announce more dates because I've been listening to Trouble Will Find Me on repeat the past couple days and would love to see them live because I've never seen them before (aside from a festival webcast).

Spent an hour today fighting with the massey hall website, but I got decent tickets for friday, and terrible ones for thursday (girlfriend actually prefers the very back of massey hall) 15 dollar service fee on each ticket though, and I thought ticket master was terrible...

They performed I Need My Girl and Don't Swallow The Cap on the CBS morning news show, along with doing a mini interview, which you can watch here.

That song with all of us singing along is just magical and I can't wait to do it again.

It'll be fun to see if the singing along has a noticeable accent since I'll be going to a show in Germany this time. Although Germans' English is typically really good so maybe not!

Fuuuuuuuck. I live within driving distance of Auckland, and I checked their tour list when I first found out about them late last year.

Will a recording of the show/stream be available anywhere? Edit: Jesus, they're heavy on the filler. I dunno if I'd use Bloodbuzz Ohio for montage music. Anticheese fucked around with this message at 10:29 on Feb 8, 2014 |

Its pretty cool how they're giving a bit of a different spin on their old favourites. I can't stand the studio version of Mister November, but the live one from another show is much better.

That was easily the best version of Conversation 16 they've ever done
