The Mountain Goats (John Darnielle) are/is doing a big huge international tour for the new album coming out Oct 6 which is about the BIBLE (!!) Which is appropriate, because John Darnielle is God. I just got my tickets for December 2nd at The Bell House, and now it seems I will spend the rest of my day being actively mad at my friends who aren't as excited about this as I am. One of my best friends claims to have never even HEARD of TMG!! (Not mad at him, just shocked.) Amazing. The other tour dates are at that link (sadly, no Tallahassee stop this time.)

I was there last time he played in Tallahassee, it was like my second show here. He was pretty good, but a bunch of assholes kept yelling "NO CHILDREN!" trying to get him to play it. I like "No Children," but I'm glad he didn't cave to the assholes' demands. Anyway after the second encore, when he walked offstage, he walked right by me and I'm pretty sure he was crying. All in all it was an awesome show, and an awesome night.

Be proud Lindsay, I work for student activities at my school and booked him right off the bat for the fall semester.
Apparently Final Fantasy is headlining though...
