[happenstance]

"per tradition, Finn spends the song’s opening vamp thanking the audience. “I know I say this every time, but that’s because it’s true. There is so much joy up here, in what we do!” Whatever magic formula this band has discovered that prevents their music and their fans from succumbing to post-millenial irony and cynicism is precisely the same aesthetic that sends chills down my spine when Finn gets to the word “joy,” despite the fact that I’ve seen and heard him deliver this same line about six times before."
