Went to see Neutral Milk Hotel last night in Edinburgh.
Very energetic and powerful performance. Played a mixture of songs from Avery Island and ITAOTS as well as a couple B-sides including Engine, which they finished on.

Guy with the saw sits front and center and looks like he's 15 years younger than the rest of the band.
The horn player looks like Santa Claus and Jeff Mangum looks like Forest Gump did when he went running for 2 years.

They still sound as good as they did on their original albums though. Very passionate and emotionally driven, especially on Two Headed Boy Part II which Jeff performed on his own as the rest of the band left the stage.

Support act was one of the guys from Frightened Rabbit. He was sh*t.

A lot of beards and glasses in the crowd, but a very enthusiastic and lively audience. Don't think I've ever sweated more at a concert. Great set, and would definitely recommend catching them, as they have a reputation as one of the best live acts, if you ever get the chance.
