The Decemberists - O Valencia!

The Decemberists!! (3/24/07)

I meant to post this ages ago and I'm sorry I didn't. Before embarking on my trip to hell (aka St. Louis), HB and I saw The Decemberists play a kick ass show at Avalon in Boston the Saturday before last. (squeal, squeal, gush)

Here's the setlist:

1. Oceanside
2. The Island
3. Yankee Bayonet
4. Summersong
5. The Crane Wife #1
6. 16 Military Wives
7. Grace Cathedral
8. Shankill Butchers
9. The Perfect Crime #2
10. O Valencia!
11. Infanta
12. The Mariner's Revenge Song
13. Sons & Daughters

I got some decent video from the show, but I still haven't figured out how to edit video to make the files smaller. I'm dying to put up my 10 minute video of The Mariner's Revenge Song, but don't know how. I've got O Valencia on YouTube now for your viewing pleasure.

Tickets

So excited! Got tickets to see The Decemberists at Avalon in Boston (March) and The Frames at Town Hall in New York (April). I may not be able to record any video of either shows, first because the bouncers at Avalon will throw my yellow ass out of the place if they see me with a camera and second because they'll probably be even stricter at Town Hall. Sigh.

That doesn't mean that I won't try.
