bobbob1313 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 On the "not as epic" note, it seemed like they were more interested in just having a good time than truly going nuts with the epicness. "Fun" is the best word to describe the show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tangara Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Agreed. I had an absolutely fantastic time, but I think I may have been a little spoiled by the Chicago shows. I was hoping for some older tunes, rarities, and/or lots of new covers, but I think the setlist was written for maximum fun-osity, and it was perfect for New Year's Eve. (gah, I hate to give the gift horse a full dental exam... ) Nicole Atkins...pffffft. I wonder how Jim hooked up with that Mariah Carey wannabe. Now Will Johnson adding harmonies on "Golden", THAT was awesome! ms yvon, lovely running into you! I have a feeling we'll cross paths on tour again... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

"Fun" is the best word to describe the show. oh for sure... but have you seen some of those full Bonnaroo setlists? they were both fun + epic from the videos i've watched. Nicole Atkins...pffffft. I wonder how Jim hooked up with that Mariah Carey wannabe. Now Will Johnson adding harmonies on "Golden", THAT was awesome! Mariah Carey? have you heard her records or seen her solo before?

tangara Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Mariah Carey? have you heard her records or seen her solo before? Yes and yes. I do not care for her; she's on my Grace Potter list (aka List Of Hot Girl Musicians That Guys Keep Trying To Tell Me Are Really Talented and Awesome But I Just Don't See It So I Figure They're Just Confused By The Hotness).

TheMaker Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Hey, these guys sound like fleet foxes, if fleet foxes could write more than one basic mediocre song and had something like a sense of humour. That's basically true, I agree. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
