PODCAST EXCLUSIVE!

One of the really awesome things about this show is that it reminded me just how many great songs they have in 3+ albums (2+ really, since their first was kind of tonally different). This is a song I sometimes skip when listening to When I Pretend to Fall because it follows three sublime opening tracks, and its just-pretty-goodness isn't always enough for me. Live, I was reminded what a terrific piece of work it is. Indeed, I said to Emily afterwards that they had enough great material that they didn't play ("Shapes" and "New Girl, come on!) to do an entire extra set that would stand up to the quality of the first. If only Zach Galifianakis hadn't been in town the next night, we might've followed them to Milwaukee to find out.
