As a thank you for a week of editing her NSF proposal my lovely and talented girlfriend, Sara, bought me tickets to see The Mountain Goats IN Urbana, IL. It was a great show in a small venue.

The setlist:

• Wild Sage
• September 15, 1983 (new, not yet released)
• Dance Music
• Mole
• Love Love Love
• In the Craters on the Moon
• New Monster Ave
• Color In Your Cheeks
• Maybe Sprout Wings
• Soft Targets (from an obscure split 7 inch)
• You or Your Memory
• This Year

Encore:

• See America Right
• Houseguest (a cover of the song from Peter Hughes former band Nothing Painted Blue)

Update: Photos here. Sara also captured a few seconds of You or Your Memory on video.
