    I would love to see them live more but I also wish they varied their setlists more and played longer.

    Thanks! I've got a few of them. Was doing some slight touch ups. I love that shot, but it is pretty blurry. Some of these other ones are gorgeous. Tried to minimize the amount I whipped out my phone for a second.

    yea, I barely took any videos/pictures at these shows. I just wanted to be immersed in the music and fully present.

    Anyone notice that Andy posted on the RAGC Facebook page for the first time in 9 months? Just said 'oh hey'

    That must mean...something?

    The Mistake is turning into one of my favorites off this album.

    I really think this is the best sounding album I've heard all year. Brand New is close, but I think this one beats it for me personally, from a production standpoint strictly.

    EDIT: I really hope these albums can be a new inspiration for bands, new and old. I can imagine a band like PBTT hearing both of these records and incorporating elements of the production from both to REALLY work for them. It'd also be interesting to hear someone like Yip comment on the production of these.

    Also, finances kept me from making it to the stuffing, so I haven't been brave enough to come in here until now. Glad it was a great show, I'll try to make it next year.

    I couldn't help but smile at The Stuffing when the crowd cheered for the Atlanta area locations mentioned in The Alien.

    Wish I had been there. Those mentions are so special to me and my friends. If "A Black Mile.." had sucked we'd have still rallied around it for those little shoutouts, but the record is obviously incredible and those mentions really do make it more special. It really makes me want to be more location-oriented in the songs I write, kind of like Sufjan. Those little things really do mean a lot.

    I won’t make a commitment until December but right now this is beating sci fi
