Suffice to say, having seen this band 4 times now, and Jenny Lewis 6 times in total, I know what to expect. A Californian oddysey of indie-country-rock. They were as on fire as I've ever seen them, with Blake in particular really raising his game with some stunning solo work and all-round passion. Jenny was happier than I've ever seen her on a stage as well, laughing and having a lot of fun. Oh and thank you very much Blake's brother, Snowball, who kindly passed me one of Blake's guitar picks - a Dunlop .88mm. Cheers Snowball!!!
I won't bother with a 37 page dissemination of a gig that was great to the people who were there; I'll just say, if you weren't there, or you weren't at The New Pornographers in Manchester, then you're square. Square I tell you!!! Like this: 日 lolI must also add that Rilo Kiley have one hell of a support band with them - Grand Ole Party who dazzled the bujeebers out of me!
Can't wait to see these guys in Manchester - Sunday night!!!
Finally - more photos to follow as I text them to Thunderfrogs very own Andy, who e-mails them to me! Sincere thanks to Andy and his teams of Indonesian midget slaves over at his place...

I prefer the term Indonesian vertically-challenged serfs.
