Wow this is fucking good, I have so many thoughts The fact that they're able to do so much with three people on stage is amazing. Such a no-frills, naked-feeling live performance; no pedals, no effects, no light show, just three incredibly expressive performers playing really good songs The amount of character in Richard's voice is staggering, the amount of skill it takes to play such complex, intervallic guitar parts while staying on pitch for his talkative, large-registered vocals is high, and he pulls it off seemingly effortlessly here For some reason I was a bit dubious that the songs from the album, which I love dearly, would translate to a live setting. I definitely wasn't expecting the live performance to actually be MORE impressive than the album tracks. The breadown from 5:49 to 8:52 is totally mezmerizing; thank God they allowed this talented drummer to flex his chops like that I strongly feel that Richard Dawson is not only one of the most underappreciated figures in folk right now, but rock as well. I think people are just kind of taken aback by the earnesty of his lyrics and raw sound. This dude can write guitar parts like black midi and lyrics like David Sedaris. His last three albums especially have been such high-quality, unique music; I'm anticipating more projects with an unsustainably high amount of excitement He might not recieve the mainstream recognition that I feel he deserves as a massive fan, but I'm at least glad that this crowd seems to have come specifically to see him play, and that a good portion of them seem to enthusiastically "get it". Also I genuinely don't think this dude cares as much as I do about his commerical success I hope to meet you one day Mr Dawson ! You're absolutely one of the most vital artists who put out work during the 2010s, and I seriously believe musical histories will reflect that
This is just so great, its almost insulting to make a comment on RUclips for some reason. The speech at the beginning ... and then he rattles *that* song out.

The great guitar user.
Amazing!
never has my daily existence been so thoroughly beleaguered

So catchy!
a new call to arms
death stranding!
@Jordae he changed 'call of duty' to 'death stranding' in this performance
@@powt0wn He actually did this again but changing it for "The Last of Us Part 2"
