Death Cab For Cutie - Transatlanticism (Toronto, ON)

Filmed on April 5, 2009 at Sound Academy in Toronto, Ontario.

Death Cab consistently closes the show with this song and it never ceases to amaze. This time more than ever it seems...
Having seen them live before I'd always wanted to capture it on video, but never managed to do so in its entirety (...a 7+ minute song!). I'd always get too into it and scrap the idea of filming from the get-go. But this time I was determined! I can't believe I actually did it. It was extremely painful - I had to hold the camera up above people's heads, as I wasn't very close up. But I wanted to get a clear shot! So, if you can believe it...for 8:55 I filmed with my arms outstretched above me, and in the end I came out victorious!

Apologies - near the middle of the video there's a bit of a lack of focus as the camera sort of freaks out based on all the bright lights and constant movement...I guess it, too, was affected by the intensity of the performance :P hahaha...

Enjoy, friends. I worked hard for this one.
