When the Decemberists came to town last year, we gave the the full review treatment. This time, we thought we’d let you guys lead the discussion. Did anybody catch both Sunday and Monday? Which was better? What were the highs and lows? Did they play your favorite song? What did you think of the big red lanterns? Did you learn anything of note about the people standing next to you, as instructed? Are your vocal chords sufficiently warmed up after singing, “This is a wonderful song?” What did you think of their new material? Did anyone suffer no-man’s-land hot lava-related injuries? Did anyone accomplish the seemingly impossible and make last night a Decemberists/Beck double header?
As a special treat, we have a special Decemberists prize pack to give away to one lucky reader. Included is a gatefold vinyl copy of The Crane Wife and a special, limited edition lithograph signed by the band (shown below). All you have to do is leave us a comment and answer a few of the questions asked above. We’ll pick our favorite and get in touch sometime later in the week to award you with your prize. So make sure you leave a valid email address in the proper comment field.
