Mumford Tomorrow

[Linds]

I didn't get to come to Telluride until 2012, but I was at Mumford's now-legendary show at Bonnaroo in 2011.  I wasn't sure how I'd like it, but it was amazing.  They have a great energy on stage.  That same festival completely changed my viewpoint on bands like Arcade Fire and My Morning Jacket, too.  I checked out AF on youtube when they were up for the Grammy that year, and I wasn't impressed.  It was completely different in that crowd of 90,000 crazy people.  Just a beautiful experience.  I'm excited to share another Mumford festival show with all you guys on a starry Colorado night.  The experience is a big part of the enjoyment for me!

still don't understand why people find them so special.  They're decent songwriters who can play a little, so what?  I know women like them, but it seems mostly superficial in nature.  Glen Hansard > M&S

It seems to me like the low blows started here? ^ I don't mind that you're not a fan, but why do you need to make it sound like we (and mostly females) have a problem if we like something?
Why single out Glen as someone you think is better than M&S? Do you even like GH, or is he just barely better than this band that you so obviously dislike? And why do you feel Festivarian Nation needs feel your negative vibes so often? (this isn't the first time, imho only)
Look forward to running in to you @ Festivaaaal!   
   gotta start PfT!!!

The concert was spectacular.   There was a little folk in there, but that is a rock and roll band through and through.   The cover of "Im On Fire" was a highlight for me.  Im still smilng.   Cant wait for FESTIVAAAAAL!!!!!!

Thanks for sharing, Odd!

I love Glen Hansard!  Was hooked from the first minute of Once.  You won't find many artists who play with as much passion/intensity as Mr. Hansard. And I would absolutely love to see the 2(Hansard, Mumford) on stage together.  Yes, sometimes I'm a shrewd human being, but I'll never apologize for it or resort to sophomoric name calling. 

P.S. Swander  You've actually enjoyed some of my hard line "negative" comments from time to time.

P.S. Swander  You've actually enjoyed some of my hard line "negative" comments from time to time. That's a fact, Jack. (chuckled some @ the "Manhole" sophomoric name calling, gotta admit)
