Iron and Wine- The Trapeze Swinger 4/9/08 Tallahassee

[cceccacci777]

Part 3/PS , :-O ! I only came back to inform anyone reading this,it pays to check! often! when looking for a show like iron & wine.I went to recheck for atl area, missed it !! by a whole 7 days @ buckhead theatre !!! Wth?!?!?....now tragically blue. Ugggh...can't see tix prices for atl, but if comparable show schdld in oakland in dec, I should be totally ashamed-- only $36 bucks, ripping Sam off, I think. I should be quiet, and thank him instead. Plz come back to atl and soon. (@atl216rocker)

@atl216rocker - Prt 1 of 1.....Wow, this is beautifully captured clp from the show in Tallahassee, sound is good, too. I lived in Tally for alost 10 years, & lived in a very rural town about an hour north of Tally when they were there-(thrfore 0 radio stations,no good ones anyway) and I didn't have internet @ the time (hnstly only knew of them thru garden state sndtrck). If I knew then what I know now, I wouldn't have missed it for anything. I'm near ATL now ......

@atl216rocker - Part 2 of 2 - .....and search for them hoping to catch one. Im glad to see this footage esp. from a venue back home. It's great quality & sound (best I've heard from cell? yet) your practically in his lap! Nice. Where did they perform? And did u really bump into Sam in the parking lot? Thanks for sharing this and if you have more u should def upload. Great stuff, fav song.....and ur a lucky "rocker". Thanks to my sweet Kevin for showing me what I & W, are all about.

@cceccacci777 thanks, I was in the front and it was definitely one of the best shows I have seen, performed at The Moon. My friends and I really did meet him in the parking lot; he even dedicated a song to us :) he seemed like a very nice man, although a bit shy. probably the best concert experience I have had (this is ATL216rocker; I no longer use my old youtube account.)

The live versions aren't as good as the record.The changes in harmony are aren't helpful and hurt the performance.

[EskamoBassist]

During this song your suppose to be dead quiet, or sing along. Its a song meant to be felt.

[FatherOfOden]

Oh hurray! I was at that show! I hated how the stupid jam band took up so much of his set. But this performance of this song was great.. thanks so much for putting it up!

[FatherOfOden]

savvy, start using your own youtube account!

[atl216rocker]

no problem, it was one of the best performances I've ever seen so I had to share:)

[jadielee09]

I think this is one of my favorite songs of all time

[Mayna00]

Sam Beam is to LOVE what Dylan is to POETRY.

[gliteranddisaster]

[Stariod1994]

i would beat up the people talkin and then cry, im a guy but dont care! beautefull song!

[tommyletro]

so much emotion in this....how can people be talkin in the background!? Absolutely beautiful song.....he's definately underappreciated for his talent

[rockfishvt]

how do you know they weren't talking about how much emotion is in the song and how unapreciated he is? huh??

[tommyletro]

[UsernameAwesome]

[epsociety]

[cuntsauce69]

[AlternativaGirl]

It is the best, I have ever heard... I love him))

[transgliss]

how this song can be this beautiful

[DiarmuidHenry]

How does he keep turning out song after song of such high quality and beauty?

One of the geniuses of our time.

Love the song

[ughh11]

no one can fuck with his monster beard

[ksop218]

WHY ARE PEOPLE TALKING? that makes me mad

[atl216rocker]

It made me mad too, hahaha

[acoustic6string]

that has got to be one of the most beautiful songs ever written in the history of music.

i love it so much.

it will be played at my wedding.

[satellitepete]

you clearly then have no idea what this song is about

[welshynick]

Yes it's a beautiful song, but it's about death, didn't you catch that with the 'God' and 'Lucifer' and 'The pearly gates'?

[witta234]

death can't be beautiful?

[TheWhiskeyPoet]

It's painful and beautiful. No song has ever made me feel the way this one does. Simultaneously happy and sad like looking at old pictures. I heard someone liken it to this: "I'm crying in my coffee and having a hard time drinking it through my smile"

[AnnaliTavares]

Absolutely agree! I am never afraid to die. I can feel sorrow for my children maybe but, with this song, I will definitely die in peaceand walk thru the Pearly gates with a smile to God!

Bless the talented and gifted!

Ok! and all of us as well!

[balladofher]

[atl216rocker]

Wasn't it great? I ran into Sam Beam in the parking lot and just about died hahahhaa
