I was all grouchy and disillusioned when my awesome guitar teacher hadn't heard of them. We listened to "No Children" on Youtube and he commented on it being depressing and then suggested I try to learn something easier. :(

just keep
pestering him with mountain goats songs until he lets you learn one.

I looked up the tabs to a few songs and I think if I just spent long enough on them I could do it.

See if Jori can help you??

When they come here, Darnielle likes to tease us, but everybody knows that a lynch mob waits out back if he doesn't play No Children or TBEDMBOOD.

Re: VERY THIS.

[fearnot]

he played near here like 2 weeks ago? i had no idea until the night of. not that i had any way of going but oh man i am still bummed out.

also this comment is kinda creepy because i had just finished listening to no children and TBEDMBOOD just started when i read it..

Going to Georgia is pretty much my favorite thing ever.

One of these years I'll actually have to listen to these guys, the way y'all talk about them.

Yeah, it's difficult to explain the appeal most of the time. There was a really great primer on audiography at one point, but I've no idea where to find it now.

Going to Georgia
No Children
Up the Wolves
