favorite Decemberist moment:
Date: October 24th, 2004
Place: Fox Theater
Last stop of the 'Her Majesty' tour. This is pre-Decemberists fame so the Fox was about half-sold out (the fox is a little smaller than the El Rey) Best show ever. Funk-master Chris took his drum playing off the stage into the crowd. Colin previewed the Morrissey material and the sporting life on his solo acoustic portion of the show. Finale of "I was Meant for the Stage" with the band breaking all of their instruments and walking off the stage.
and to start it off, we had the amazing Dressy Bessy! yes, an E6 band and the Decemberists on the same night. How cool is that?
Now Colin just needs to top himself tonight! Which most likely he won't because if he did pretty much everyone at the El Rey would just spontaneously combust from so much excitement. But I'm still excited! Hell yeah Guero!
