Last night I saw Jeff Mangum and it was the closest to religion I get these days. That voice, that guitar, those songs.
Since it was DC, there were bros about doing their DC bro thing. And also one person yelled to Jeff Mangum, “don’t disappear for so long next time” and he got annoyed (“What did you want me to do? No, I’m…I’m not trying to be a dick. I know your heart’s in the right place”) and then (“This is the song that almost destroyed me”) he played Little Birds and my heart came out of my throat.
