okkervil river tonight at the troubadour

I can’t wait. The last time I saw them I hadn’t let their stuff soak in yet. They were good, but as much as I went on to love that album, it was so melodramatic that I don’t think it let them kick out the jams the way I’m expecting the new songs will. The video for “Our Life Is Not A Movie Or Maybe” is really cool on a number of levels. I like the dichotomy between the set of the shoot and watching and how they are uncomfortably squeezed the performance into that motel room. Is it just me, or does Will look like he hasn’t adjusted to not wearing glasses? They pulled off the same song relatively well on Late Night, which is worth it just to see Conan give them the full seal of approval.
