The New Pornographers - These Are the Fables

April 16, 2008
Toad's Place
Richmond, VA

I was too close to get the rest of the band in the frame, so the video is entirely of Neko. This is one of my top three New Pornographers songs--the others being Letter from an Occupant and The Bleeding Heart Show--so it was a definite treat.

does Neko still sing with the Pornographers??

[kmburc]

she did challengers and both full tours behind it (aside from the shows she missed because of her ankle).... i haven't heard anything since then, but i'd assume so.

[mcharnley]

Wow, I was right next to you I guess. LOL. I situated myself right in front of Neko and couldn't take my eyes off of her.

[kmburc]

I'd guess you were 3 or so people to my left. There was a man and blonde woman to my immediate left, both slightly older, and I think the three of us were just to Neko's right.

I love her voice.

The only singer that makes me weep openly.

[SparkleUnicornFace]

@cedar688 Yep. I just saw them two nights ago. She was the best part, for sure.

This song, and the whole album, simply knocked me out. Thanks for posting.

This is my favourite TNP song.

Neko has an amazing voice.
