Right, me and ASturge will be playing a selection of Decemberists songs acoustic live in the summer, all we have is two voices, two six string acoustic guitars, one 12-string acoustic(I'm working on it dude) and 2 electrics(all done by the two of us).

Suggestions for Decemberists songs to play live like mentioned above?

Cpt.Fantastic

Don't need anything else, almost anything works acoustically¬!

ASturge

we'll nail the ones we try, i can sing and play "here i dreamt i was an architect", "the apology song", "los angeles, im yours" , "oceanside" so far....

we'll go into hyper practice and get em all.
Its strange, everyone i send a decemberists song too loves them instantly. same goes for neautral milk hotel.

where do you live Spinless? maybe the people in derbyshire are more mellow (or is that "meloy"? ahahahah)

All the songs I would have suggested, have been suggested..

That was just an excuse for me to publically announce that I think the Decemberists rock.

IF YOU CANNOT PLAY THE ENTIRETY OF "THE TAIN" I DO NOT CARE IF YOU LIVE OR DIE

Dude, I CAN play all of The Tain...

ASturge

Its true, he taunts me with it.

Dude, you NEED organ for the Tain.  Which is why I'm waiting for those other two arms I ordered to arrived and learn to play them a Hammond before I can say I can play all of the Tain.

Cpt.Fantastic

I have a Hammond(which I can't play).
Besides, I meant all of the GUITAR parts. If I spent a good night trying to figure out the organ bits from the guitar I might be able to do the organ er... bits...

Spencer

The Tain is pretty much 300% awesome.

And if you ever do The Bachelor and The Bride, I would relaly love to hear a recording of it.

Kirkles
