Bloody hell. Yeah, I really should go to this I guess! I *love* The Young Thousands... that line "The ghosts that haunt your building..." chills! That whole album We Shall All Be Healed was my gateway drug to TmG. Remember hearing Palmcorder Yajna on 6 Music - it just seared out of the radio...

Another Button Factory gig - Nov 20th 2019. I saw them in Whelans in 2011 & 2015. Even though I had a far better spot at the 2015 gig, I found it a bit underwhelming because a) For his solo acoustic bit mid set he played the exact same "songs for the hardcore fans" as he did in 2011 and b) He...

Yes - it was moved a few months back - I think to avoid a clash with Girl Band? Aiken Promotions present PROTOMARTYR | The Workmans Club

I be's goin til this. Anyone know where to find stage times for it? Agent Intellect is the best album I've heard in YEARS

I got Wolf In White Van last Christmas. I tried to read it imagining what I would think of it if it wasn't John Darnielle who had written it. Very difficult to do. I really liked it, but it was difficult to form an objective opinion. I also tried to avoid looking at recent setlists before going...

Managed to get 2 tickets this morn. If I'd seen this thread last night my smug-ometer would've been off the charts tho

^ I didn't get a confirmation e-mail either. I always (paranoidly) paste the confirmation page into Word and save it though so I have that instead. If you can't get any tickets turn up with your ID anyway - you probably did buy them.

I was on ticketmaster.ie at 09.02 and didn't manage to get any tickets despite frantically searching again and again. After fifteen frustrating minutes of that I went on to tickets.ie halfheartedly but managed to get a couple no problem at 09.16 :confused:

You can listen to a stream of the new album in its entirety here: http://www.npr.org/2011/02/27/134056034/first-listen-the-mountain-goats-all-eternals-deck

Yeah, "transjordanian" kinda ruins my theory! I guess I was thinking of the first 2 tracks in particular... I know a lof of tMG songs sound desperate, but those two are very slow and almost mournful. Will def check out New Asian as well then - cheers!!

Thanks a lot for the link to that wfmu session UC - absolutely fantastic. That new song on Letterman sounds great as well. I've been checking out a few of the more obscure releases over the past few days... Devil In The Shortwave, Isopanisad Radio Hour, On Juhu Beach etc. All great listens. Was...

I love The Goats dearly but have to say I never really got into The Sunset Tree. The album that got me into them was We Shall All Be Healed - heard the lead single Palmcorder Yajna on 6 Music and immediately fell in love. However I would agree with Pavlos - All Hail West Texas is a good place to...

Nice one - very excited about this!;)

Re: WAVVES (Usa, Woodsist/ De Stijl) + Dublin Duck Dispensary + Weil Rats - Wed 11th Any idea of stage times? Thanks
