MFNW is going on in Portland right now. We got The National tomorrow, but you can bet my ass was at Man Man instead of TMOE, because come on.

I just caught japandroids at a small bar in spokane on the 9th. It was supergood they invited anyone up who wanted to watch the show from on the stage. i was sitting right next to Dave's drum set, my ears are still ringing.

Local Natives, Arcade Fire, Deadmau5 in the next month here. Pretty amped!
and the National was fucking mindblowing tonight, but that's a given. they pulled out daughters of the soho riot and i've never heard close to 5000 people so silent and in awe.

You're in Pittsburgh too? I couldn't make it to that one because of prior commitments/theaters suck, and I missed out on National tickets because they're now sold out. Walkmen/Japandroids at Mr. Small's will be great, though, I'm sure, and I'm throwing around seeing a couple others...

They were silent and still the whole night, at least those standing. The crowd sucked. A hoard even left before the encore.

The crowd was, very little movement, few clapping along when the band tried to get the crowd going, very few hands above the head.
It was still an awesome show, I about lost my shit when they played "Available."
The setlist was almost the same tonight, minus "Brainy" in the first set, and they play "Secret Meeting" instead of the new song in the four song encore.

Tallest Man on Earth played a killer 30 minute set at 2:30 at the Doug Fir. Remember when you got kicked in the head by the crowd surfer at Man Man? That was me. Ninjaz.

Just saw Deakin, Best Coast, Sleepy Sun, Akron/Family, screening of Oddsac, The Rosebuds, Broken Social Scene, Panda Bear, The Golden Boys, Harlem, Fucked Up, Love Language, No Age, Public Enemy, Bear in Heaven, Dungen, Tortoise, and Woods last weekend if that counts for anything. I don't know if this is a contest, but I'd think if it was, I did pretty well.

Did you happen to catch the joke about the cider up near the front middle of the crowd? I missed how that started, although I think it had something to do with Matt's niece. He mentioned the cider at least threes times, but I didn't get the reference. I'm guessing you were much closer to the stage than I, since I was near the back. They brought it up again at the Portland show. One of the twins joked that Matt was wanted in Washington for providing alcohol to children.

wait you were at the seattle show? i didnt realize that. up front the crowd seemed really into them. must have been different further back.
uhh i think the whole cider thing was just in reference to him pouring cups of whatever he was drinking for some people in the front row.
