Decemberists Play Star Wars Theme At Manchester Show

(1/4) > >>

Just got back from this show, absolutely awesome. Whatever tiredness they were displaying when Jeph saw them seems to have gone, and they appeared to be really enjoying themselves.

The support were awful as they always seem to be at Academy 3 though, two guys with '94 grunge haircuts trying to be the White Stripes and failing badly.

The best part of the evening had to be the opening five minutes though. The bass wasn't hooked up correctly, so while they sorted it we got a burst of improvisation. Someone shouted out 'PLAY STAAR WAAAARS!', and they did. Thanks to the wonders of modern mobile phones, I managed to get a shoddy recording of the resultant masterpiece and singalong, and thought some of you might appreciate it.

There was also an awesome burst of improvisation about halfway through the set. It felt like I was in some crazy Czech jazz bar.

Bunnyman:
Internationale to the Star Wars theme?  Is this hispster humor or something?

zmeiat_joro:
It's awesome hipster humour.

trolley:
Dear QC magic pixies,
 please deliver my pintsize jamming tee tomorrow morning so I can rock out to the Decemberists at the UlU tomorrow night in awesome style.

Your pal,
Olly
