Fuck, I think even Marcus would agree with that.

Nobody with the exception of that random mnajimi guy has been arguing this. I said I enjoy M&S better, but thats it. seriously people, can we move on?

[mja271]

New topic of conversation...

Favorite song on The Carpenter? I'd say mine right now is probably February Seven

[Ascf33]

Pretty Girl from Michigan

[Rebecca De Mornay]

Pretty girl from Michigan and Down with the Shine

[Auzz76]

Hard to choose between The Carpenter, February Seven, Down With the Shine, and Pretty Girl from Michigan.

[umphucked88]

I really love Live and Die. I haven't listened to the Carpenter in awhile but I always had to listen to that song at least 3 times whenever I listened to the album.

I really do like all of their albums though. I think their progression has been pretty natural and solid. I know some people want more of the banjo picking stuff, but I feel like we have enough from them, I like that they've branched into different things. And they always smoke live regardless of the studio recordings.

My sister just gave me my xmas present: Four Thieves Gone on vinyl so awesome

[Ascf33]

NYE was fucking massive. Easily the best Avett show I've ever seen. Probably in my top 5 concerts of all time.

They had a second stage behind the sound board on the floor and they would kill the lights and Seth and Bob just appeared there. Place erupted.

Just got my tickets to the May 25th show in Columbus

[tiger_rag81]

Them coming to my college a month before I graduate is the coolest thing ever. Going to the Alpharetta show with Old Crow as well.

[jrod41]

Anyone planning on going to their May 17th show in Atlanta?

1. Paranoia in B# Major
2. When I Drink
3. Pretty Girl at the Airport
4. Laundry Room
5. Shame
6. At the Beach
7. The New Love Song
8. Life
9. Salina
10. Go To Sleep

HM: Distraction #74 & Colorshow

they're amazing in concert

(PS: The fact that Mumford & Co. have covered the Avetts in concert before shows the mad respect Marcus has for them.)
