Re: Favorite Live Show - 2 months ago

QuoteCaptainless Sailor Here's a thread for stories about (from shows you've been to) or links to (for shows that are available online*) your favorite Mountain Goats show(s). I've only been to one show, but I've listen to a few, and my favorite right now is this 2006 show at the 40 Watt Club. It has an amazing No Children in which for a bunch of the song the audience sings alone and Oceanogra

Re: John interviews on FPK After Dark - 2 months ago

I don't know, I actually thought that it was a pretty enjoyable interview to listen to, mostly when john was talking. he said some really cool stuff that really jives well with me. and i mean while i think that you're right that you were sort of talking past each other, i ultimately agreed more with john over what was worth talking about if you catch my drift. like he was almost purposefully avoi

Re: "while I work on other stuff" - 2 months ago

Quoteromme it is not bad but the real Sunset Tree with the superior production is much more convincing. before i've heard CCTTST i had mixed feelings about the then 'new' better production 4AD records but CCTTST convinced me that Darnielle made a good decison to take a step forward... i don't know. i do think that it was a good decision to step forward, but i have reservations about the sunset tr

Re: Worst, er...tMG Songs You Don't Like - 2 months ago

QuoteDrumhax Was going to derail the Austin show thread with this one but then remembered that a thread exists for this very purpose... I am getting weary of San Bernardino. Seems like few live shows these days escape unscathed, I never considered it one of their better songs so no idea why it gets flogged this way. I understand this may have a lot of meaning for John given somewhat recent events

Re: Mole - 5 months ago

I'm almost certain that one time in college I was walking through a quad that housed four frats and one of them was playing this song over the loudspeaker. I was dumbfounded but the experience of hearing that song float through the sunny afternoon air around me was pretty transcendental.

Re: John how did you learn Guitar? - 5 months ago

Quotedreamboatcaptain Pretty sure John considers himself at best a functional guitarist, more likely someone who flat-out sucks at the technical/skillful side of things. I remember him talking about this when he toured with Kaki King, someone you could genuinely call a guitar phenom. You could chalk this up to a self-effacing nature, but I don't think anyone would argue that John is exactly a
