I don't know actually. HAHAHA

It is a little puzzling when saito neko orchestra was included. Maybe let's just call it the orchestra ver.

omg I am so sorry for being misleading - I keep thinking 'For the disc' is the Original version.

They played the "For The Tube" version, i.e. the rockier, English, single version.

FIRST COSTUME! I think my description was just about right...

Definitely excited to hear that with an orchestra... maybe Ringo can do the James Bond theme song the next time they have a movie that's set in Japan.

There was sounds coming from a mario game before the show began. What's that about?

That's the original Ice Climbers song! In all its 8-bit goodness!

MIND= BLOWN

Why would they do that? lol






Tumblr has some really good photos. I shall take no effort in crediting them.



But I was inspired in a completely different thing. Something pirate-y

I will virtual-hug anyone who uploads scans of the article from this mag.

I went to see St. Vincent once, and I thought it was absolutely wonderful. Could I tell you much about the setlist? Probably not. But I could tell you what the stage looked like, and I could draw what dress Annie was wearing. I also paid attention to her mannerisms and the way she moved. That's just the information I'm more inclined to store in my head.

That's funny because I can still remember everything about the St. Vincent show I saw back in '09 (posted the setlist in the thread we have here). The intensity of Black Rainbow, the silent chorus of The Strangers, new key for Your Lips Are Red, the building-shaking bass of Just the Same... Great stuff. I think it's easy to notice the differences in St. Vincent's live music. She does a lot of different tempos and new arrangements. : /

Glad they played the good version.
