[onthesubwaywalls]

I have a signed set list from that show. By Julian and Jeff.

[Lazy0Waffle]

Poor Julian...

[Tribune12345]

Anyone here that I'll see at the philly show in March? =]

[SleeperFactory5]

I love how confused Jeff looks at the beginning.

I think he might be distracting the rest of the band a little bit...

[dante224real1]

oh julian and mangum, you silly children ;)

[katieeeeehope]

jeff and julian's bromance is one of the greatest in indie music history

[futoncat]

[MEWtGensing]

[Clerks0]

@MEWtGensing greek fisherman hat :)



[jaybyrd570]

Haha Julian and his banjo. Right on.

[hello2015]

[SirMichaelShay]

him pushing julian around is the best. i love them both.

[crappybassist96]

can anyone listen to this song without bouncing up and down?

[Swiftlygothedays]

I love these guys. Never failed to make me smile. Jeff's dancing made my day.

[TRAGICxCITYxB]

what song are they playing?

[justinsmokes6]

"the opera house" by olivia tremor control, i believe

[BTARD4LIFE]

yes.

[lorrding]

Yeah, its definitely "The Opera House", you can tell by the opening riff.

[jjay75]

@lorrding and the rest of the song...

[FlaminFingaz]

man, I wish i could go up on stage and scream my lungs out with them :D

[TheGonzofoshow]

That...is,,,BADASSSSSSSSSS

Love it!

[MrVanni09]

why was i not their????? :(

[worstjazzer]

Because that is grammatically impossible.

[MrVanni09]

ohhhhhhh

[worstjazzer]

All in jest, friend. I too wonder why I wasn't there, but it's probably because I was maybe eight years old when it went down.

[youngrichardful]

looks like so much fun...

[Supaduck0]

which ones is jeff? i dont even know what he looks like. he looks different in all the pics and vids ive seen of him.

[SayidBelly]

Jeff's the one in the blue button up shirt and black hat.

[flippowitsforyou]

He's the one in the blue shirt with the hat on.

[deatheater459]

the one in the hat

[xsvmaster]

Blue shirt and hat. No guitar.

[TheYellowsAndReds]

@Supaduck0 the one in blue, without a guitar, in the hat, pulling on everyone

[notyou2188]

Oh man, I totally did not expect this to have him performing with The Olivia Tremor Control. This could be my favorite music video on youtube

[captainsmasho]

Every pic I see of OTC they are always in paint or something, but I bet you anything that's them.. amazing

[captainsmasho]

OH MAN!!!!

[BlackCreamZeppelin]

They are having such a good time.

Whenever I think of Mangum, I think of a real quiet, shy guy.

But I guess I was wrong, I am glad I was.

[kellymaureengorman]

He does seem that way... but havent you seen NMH full band videos.. they are all nuts :)

[TomReeseqazwsx]

he's tall

[firetruckgreen]

Jeff making public appearances again has given me new hope for music. I sincerely hope Jeff puts out new music before the end of this decade.

[Jakeshark]

@firetruckgreen Nope. :(

[Vanillafx]

@firetruckgreen I hear they are making a new CD soon. 2013

[Robinhoodarch]

@Vanillafx whod you hear that from?

[TheShadowFog]

@Robinhoodarch Wikipedia.

(btw This is my other account.)

[Neutralmilkinstereo]

Holiday Columbus?

[SheenZulaTheMicRula]

wow.. jeff nowadays. he reminds me so much of Jack White.. my two favorite male vocalists.

[LukaUsmiani]

this is so awesome. i still cant believe i saw this

[LukaUsmiani]

ahh nevermind, this is not the nyc show. still saw that. this is still awesome!

[nancyheartssid]

[rednaxela316]

[justinsmokes6]

[TheBuickSixes]

[sean1231]

Bill has some grizzly sideburns going on

[robbiejojo]

So thats what he looks like after all these years

[coldcaptainess]

I think he looks pretty good too :)

[xZADAMx]

WHEN WAS THIS?!

[muhreeuh]

sexy man pile.

[moonyx3]

manohman. I was in the same place as you were, just on stage right; next to the speaker. (and also next to some girl who kept hanging out of the window, but that's totally irrelevant).

thanks for getting a video of this! I took a few, too, and I'm going to post them ASAP. but for some reason, I was too lame to get one of them playing opera house, which is basically my all time favourite olivia song. soooo in conclusion: you win.

[jpape11]

generating electricity

music hasnt been played like this in a long long time.

:)

[Pollenissuekid]

Poor Julian is just taking a beating :p

[figgerella]

there's a video of Forever from the Chicago show uploaded. if anyone has video or even pictures of Engine in Pontiac i would rrreeeaaaallllllllly like to see them. please?

[ErsatzMongoose]

Even besides Jeff singing, this just seemed like it would be a fun tour in general.

[apexshows]

I hate youuuuu, I'd give anything to see him live.

[muhreeuh]

holy crap! you had the best spot ever! and super jealous that jeff was at that show.

[wolfgirleatsbaby]

i feel so much jealousy...

[espejokm]

god, he was like 15 minutes form my house. and I missed it!

[BreakfastAtHaleys]

I know same here. I am such an ignorant bastard.

[justinsmokes6]

yup, i touched his butt as he ran off stage too.

[justinsmokes6]

yeah i got a bunch. i tried not to be the annoying asshole with the camera the whole time but i had to document that shit.

i got the entire chanting circulatory system song with jeff before he did engine, i'll put it up.

[rarn21]

Are you referring to Forever? I heard they played that. Please upload it!

[jeanyapko]

what is the song they sing?

[ripzerai]

That's an Olivia Tremor Control song.

[ripzerai]

It's called "Opera House." It's from Dusk at the Cubist Castle.

The song they sung at the end of the show, just before "Engine," was "Forever" by Circulatory System.

[ripzerai]

Jeff Mangum and Julian Kostner performed "Engine" at the very end of the show in the middle of the crowd, segueing into it with a Circulatory System song. Everyone in the crowd sang along. It was magical.

[geekyunicorn]

oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god (oh my god!)
