MJ Lenderman - Manning Fireworks (September 6, 2024) Album • Page 18

if you can’t dunk you can’t get into the show

 

SNL alumni Brooks Wheelan was also in attendance lol

 

My hook up fell through and I ended up having to buy a ticket resell :( good thing I can dunk though so I’ll definitely be able to get in.

 

seeing the Saturday show got TV Dinners, Toontown & Vampire Blues

 

Vampire Blues?! Wow! Has he ever covered that before? My fav Neil record.

 

I hear sooooo much On the Beach in MJs stuff that’s awesome

 

Same

 

I'm really digging this album and am new to this cat. I understand from reading here that Boat Songs should be my next listen. Are his earlier albums good too, or not as much? Just curious.

This is not typically the type of act I really dig, but man, the guitars on Manning Fireworks are very very good

 

All the best songs from his early material except one or two are on the live album and sound much better there. I’d listen to that maybe even before Boat Songs although both are essential

 

Yeah I’d say Live and Loose should be Stop number 2. Then Boat Songs.
I also like Ghost of Your Guitar Solo, but it’s not really a similar sound

 

the reworked versions on the live record make that album irrelevant for me, tbh

 

From what I've heard, just a few from spotify playlists, the stuff before boat songs sounds a lot more like his other band Wednesday, ie shoegazey

 

At the show, thank god I was able to dunk.

 

this is where I learn homeboy is in Wednesday wow. Rat Saw God is a banger

 

Maybe a top 5 show? Absolutely incredible and he played at the best sounding venue in Pittsburgh.

 

Yea he’s got a nice little three year streak going of playing on my favorite or second favorite record every year lol

 

absolutely buying single day tickets to this once I find out what days MJ / Courtney are playing

 

Courtney Barnett and MJ Lenderman is a dream tour.

There has to be a new CB album coming, right?

 

MJ Lenderman and Waxahatchee is the real dream tour for me!

 

so what British individual has video of the "A Long December" cover!??????

 

Whoa that sounds rad

 

I want Waxahatchee songs with MJ's band backing her
