This is a 3:30 loop of John Darnielle’s Panasonic RX-FT500 boombox idling.
It’s to help fans of The Mountain Goats sleep at night.
No kidding.
This is one of the best things I’ve seen in a while. Fun to imagine these goats wandering around in the Darnielles’ yard.
I taped this show, and I just finally got it edited and uploaded! The Wex people were very very nice and helpful and the soundboard recording sounds really great. Go listen to it!
I almost forgot about this video. almost.
look at this really good performance of “Psalms 40:2”
Tiny desk rules
So so so good.
This is, I think, my favorite live recording of “Old College Try”, an excellent Mountain Goats song from their excellent album Tallahassee. Listen to the bass. Especially at the very end. It’s superb.
- Craig Finn is adorable.
- This song has never sounded better or been more rocking.
- I just realized that nyctaper made a recording of this whole show; ahhhh.
A bunch of my friends at the Mountain Goats forums made a compilation album of covers of tMG songs. I designed the cover and made the mini-site. They did a fantastic job and I’m really proud of the end product. Check it out!
