[LadyStonecut]

Just discovered them. I am amazed. Every song they do...incredible.

[jiffinbigles]

2:58 Where can i get one of those

[tristessa56079]

Such an amazing sound. It's incredible how they can pull it off live so flawlessly.

[handicappedhero]

I was sitting on the edge of my seat before this started. Never heard these guys live before, so I was thinking to myself, "Is this real? Can they actually pull this off?"

And they did.

I was so excited to see that they aren't at the mercy of good production. Nice work, Fleet Foxes.

[SigmaShark97]

absolutely beautiful.

[missjuicy1231]

[W3R3W00F]

@BOOSSHH It's cool. :)

[W3R3W00F]

I need to see them live some day. :c They're so incredible.

Btw, what's the thing on the back of that guitar at 2:59? Please answer, that thing looks really sweet. o_O

[BOOSSHH]

@W3R3W00F capo

[W3R3W00F]

@BOOSSHH I don't think that's a capo... I've got one. I'm trying to find out what the thing on the bridge of the white guitar at 2:59 was. It repeatedly hammered all 6 strings.

[YouFouria]

@W3R3W00F Someone here explained what it is, check out the 2nd page of comments.

[W3R3W00F]

@YouFouria Oh, okay. So that's why I couldn't find any on Amazon.com... >_>

Thanks, man. :)

[YouFouria]

@W3R3W00F

No problem, I just pointed you to the right place :]

[markgundy]

[nickjohn877]

[zachwulderk]

that dulcimer contraption is awesome. this performance was amazing.

[Soundstage8]

What is that they're wearing in their ears? Are they just ear plugs?

[zachwulderk]

@Soundstage8 I think they're in-ear monitors

[LarryDickman757]

awesome....nailed.

[pvdruten]

Vibrating bass?

[jonwangcb]

@pvdruten not a bass, its a 12 string guitar modified to replicate the sound of a dulcimer.

[mrdjcann]

What is that on the bridge of his bass?

[snagillim]

@mrdjcann That's a contraption created by Pecknold's father to approximate the sound of the hammer dulcimer found on the studio recording of the song.

[jonwangcb]

@mrdjcann and Pecknold is calling it a "guitarxophone."
