Here is a 2003 show from The New Pornographers. They are mostly Carl Newman's band with variety of band members. A few people that have always been included on the albums. Including Neko Case who joined them on this tour. So that was a treat.
This was the tour for their 2nd album 'Electric Version' so there are lots of songs from that in the set. Carl and Neko are really chatty on this. Not sure if that is always the case since I've only seen them once. Might have to do with as Carl says at the start "we are pulling a Guided By Voices and having the beer onstage tonight"
They talk about Kid Rock, hockey, the possibility of George W Bush's daughter having a eunuch that buys beer for them. Kinda funny.
Sound is pretty good on this. Clear vocals and a nice house mix. Enjoy.
