thoughts on jeff mangum's solo work?

tickets are going on sale tomorrow for his 2013 tour and there's a stop near me. i'm going regardless because of how much i enjoy nmh but i don't really know what to expect.

i've heard that he isn't as good in recent years but i don't know if there's much validity to it.

>> No.30174469

nmh is basically his solo work

>> No.30174498

Doesn't he just do NMH songs acoustically too? I mean, he was pretty much a solo artist when he was NMH, he just collabed with a dude with a drum and a dude with a saw. Imagine him minus drums and a saw.

...yeah pretty much.

when I saw him that's exactly how he sounded, which was great, although I did miss the drums at times

sorry, poor choice of words. i mean his live solo performances.

>tfw no stops in NYC or NJ
>closest one is an hour and a half away in upstate ny

I guess that isn't too bad. How quickly do you think the events in february will sell out?

>tfw want to go so badly
>no qt hipster girls to go with

nobody I know fucking listens to them, idk what i'm going to do

most people at his 2012 performances were impressed. The intimate Vermont show was described as "a religious experience" by many who attended.

but go there alone?

>> No.30177039

I was going to go alone because my gf is admittedly queen pleb, but then my best friend from high school said he wanted to come up to the show with me.

>> No.30177052

I think $30+ a ticket is some bullshit.

>> No.30177070

>>30177052
What do you mean?

>> No.30177079

>>30177052
this is 2012, and he is a fairly established act. I think it is reasonable considering similarly popular artists now charge $50+

>> No.30177154

>>30176746
guise someone help. How much time do I have to plan before it sells out? If it does sell out, is there anything I can do?

some people are driving 4+ hours

I would be at a computer at noon friday if at all possible... if not scalpers will be re-selling

>> No.30177201

>>30177176
fuck they sell out that fast? how do you find scalpers?

>> No.30177218

god dammit why isn't he coming to the west coast.
saw him at coachella last year. played all nmh songs. sounded great. looked nervous

>> No.30177266

>>30177201
well some shows take a week to sell out, but the UPenn show sold out in 35 seconds last year.

Craigslist is the place for scalpers and Traps paying for BJs with Mangum tickets

>> No.30177270

>>30177218
He already had a west coast tour....
Although I wish he would come back since I couldn't go when he was here in San Francisco

>> No.30177303

he's playing at a venue thats like 10 minutes down the street from me. I just found out today and i couldnt believe it. Im deff going, no doubt. but i do think 30 is a but much for tickets. especially for a show like this. if it was a full aeroplane over the sea reunion then ok but ... w/e

>> No.30177356

seeing him is almostsurreal after your perceptions have been destroyed by /mu/. One of the best concerts I've ever been to.

>> No.30177400

I saw him in London. He played in a fucking church. It was amazing.

Also tfw qt Julian Koster joins him on stage for a few songs, and The Music Tapes and Jeff all play The Fool <3

>> No.30177514

How fast will these tickets sale? Like as soon as they go up?
I live in Everett and the closest show to me is in Portland so I have to convince my cousin who also likes NMH to take me since I don't drive

>> No.30177598

Anyone going to the Bloomington show?
Also I saw him at Coachella this year and he pretty much just plays all NMH stuff. Mostly ITAOTS.

>> No.30177789

I'm buying a ticket for the New Orleans show as soon as they go on sale. My college is about an hour away though so i don't have to drive too far. But damn, i am excited for this. I've heard nothing but good things about his live shows

>> No.30177857

>>30174498
no horns?

>> No.30177876
