i love this tweet so much. think it captures what a great, imaginative writer JD is. how he can send your imagination racing in such a short space.

I've been on the fence about getting a Twitter for a while, this knocked me off it.

How do you guys think JD would feel about a tweeted song request for an upcoming show? Not that anyone here can read his mind...but obviously many of you have been fans/been going to shows a lot longer than I have (about 5 years now). The song I am so desperate to hear is Going to Marrakesh, and hearing it live would pretty much justify my existence for the past 6 years or so. Any advice is appreciated, even if it's "Suck it up and shout your request at the show along with everyone else screaming NO CHILDREN over you". Thanks!

I know, the last thing I want to do is offend my favorite musician ever. I am quite conflicted about it.

I think tweeting him a request is much more civilized than shouting out at a show. do it i say. i guess he might get sick of it everyone does it tho.

Good to hear. I know he knows Going to Marrakesh because it's on Undercard which just came out recently. And I know he's willing to play it without Franklin Bruno since I have a solo version on a bootleg from 2001. So I think I am going to give it a shot! Thanks guys smiling smiley

Now the question is, do I tweet it now or closer to the show (Asheville, which is on Sunday)? I know I am probably obsessing way too much. But I really fucking want to hear this song.

QFT. It will be a great night, whether he plays "Going to Marrakesh" or not. Don't let your investment in that one song overshadow all the wonderful things you're about to hear.

Oh, I'm not, don't worry. I am so fucking excited about this show I could pop. It will only be my third show but each time I see them it's the most wonderful natural high ever grinning smiley

Going to Marrakesh isn't on Undercard. It's on Martial Arts Weekend, released in 2002.

Oh yeah, duh. It was played in the set the Extra Lens did for KEXP not too long ago, a set which I have been listening to a lot, along with Undercard. Oops!

"All boss fights in God mode"

I don't really know what this means but i like it a lot and vow to get it into my daily lexicon.

God mode = a cheat in video games, making you invulnerable. And video games are full of bosses, which are can be difficult to beat. Ergo, it's a good time for turning on God mode. There, tweet explained. Should've been the title for All Eternals Deck though.


Why's everyone in this thread a f***ing Mountain Goats fan?!
