I was lucky enough to catch the la show last night with the decemberists. It was really great. They played for a little over two hours. They played:
the infanta
july, july
we both go down together
leslie anne levine
the bagman's gambit
grace cathedral hill
here i dreamt i was an architect
the sporting life
from my own true love (lost at sea)
16 military wives (everyone threw wads of paper at colin haha)
the engine driver
on the bus mall
petra haden flawlessly executing wuthering heights, a kate bush cover
los angeles, i'm yours w/the crowd stomping to time (well for the most part haha) and underwear tossing
billy liar
the mariner's revenge song (including screaming/groaning sounds made by the audience in simulation of being swallowed by a whale)
- also during the part where petra sings as the mother she did cute hand gestures. i couldn't help, but smile. Come to think of it I have never smiled so much at a show. It was really fun.
encore:
red right ankle
the tain
I am definitely going to be seeing them again tomorrow night at the glasshouse. I've been meaning to make a post about the trip, but I am really lazy. Expect one soon though.

No show tomorrow. Friends and their stupid birthdays.
