Another solid show as always from The Decemberist, although hopefully at some point their drop their fascination with Prog Rock.  Would prefer 3 or 4 songs verses the 19 minute "Joan In The Garden".  Can't recall Chris Funk rocking out on Baritone Sax or not before, but him and trumpet player were a nice addition. 

Ratboys were just a whole bunch of fun, a bit like a more raucous version of Velocity Girl.

Joan is totally like Floyd’s Echoes!

Did they not have Moen on drums?

It was funny how they said they had “one more” and then proceeded to play a 20 minute prog epic!!

They have been using as their "encore" so far this tour, it's a decent song just not certainly a song I would want to hear live.  The only changes in their line-up since Moen joined the line-up is who they take on tour as backing musicians.  Lizzy Ellision can certainly belt out the vocals on "The Queen's Rebuke / The Crossing" and it will never not be amusing watching Colin stomp around stage like he's playing guitar in a heavy metal band for that one

So that was Moen up there??

Man, he is just wasted on this band… guy is a beast of a drummer. Check him out on Boston Spaceships!!! It’s like having Keith Moon and tying one arm behind his back!!
