here we go

 

The fact that he basically made Jenny the Musical is just wow amazing

 

Wow this is so cool

 

A Going song?!?!? Ahhhhhh! This is very fanservice-y but hey, I’m not above that

 

Crying, screaming, throwing up, etc.

 

Between his novels and his constant stream of albums he’s got to be one of the most prolific people on the planet, just churns creative output

 

Amazing.

Also, I couldn’t go to the Chicago shows earlier this month and he played “You Were Cool” at two of them, god damn.

 

Big Transcendental Youth vibes

 

Awesome, last record was a great rebound, can’t wait to check this out

 

excellent

 

So quick!

 

"The Mountain Goats recorded Jenny From Thebes with Sheryl Crow collaborator Trina Shoemaker. Bully’s Alicia Bognanno, who produced Bleed Out, plays guitar on the album, while Matt Douglas adds horn and string arrangement. Matt Nathanson and the Go-Go’s’ Kathy Valentine sing backup. "

 

lol at Matty not knowing this band

 

Two of my absolute favorite musicians of all time, what a funny little video haha

I wonder what it would sound like if they collaborated

 

tbf he's British haha

 

Lol John Darnielle isn’t fucking with Healy

 

Like it, not as much as Clean Slate initially, but damn does it sound so good

 

Good lord this set list from the other day

The Mountain Goats Setlist at Brooklyn Made, Brooklyn

 

Unhinged, I love it.

 

Also shocked to see they only played one song from Jenny from Thebes, but then again when they played Chicago right after Bleed Out was announced they didn't even play Training Montage
