By the way, along with that Dinner Party video of Star A War (mentioned halfway up the page) there is an excellent version of Ada up on that site as well.

ive seen them play 8 times...and they were fantastic 6 of those times...ive seen them play 2 bad shows... so......yes....if i were there at Paddy's...i very well could have said that

I agree with mistakenforfamous; I was at Paddy O's and wasn't fond of the show. But I don't think it was the band's fault; who would be inspired to play given the atmosphere at the bar? It was a drunken mess, not focused on the music, and like others have said, the band name was spelled wrong on the posters, people were yelling lame things...lot of demotivators. It was a Miller Lite show, not a National(s) show.

Hey!
I just came back from a concert in Zagreb...and just wanted to write a few lines about tonight.
I'm 28 years old and this was the best concert in my life. The band plays the music in the rythm of my soul.

Thank you for tonight.

what a great stuff - thank you all

I hear the wonderful spin-session, so great!

I think these are rarities too was in Zurich on Thursday and took some Videos
not very good qualitiy but perhaps someone will look at it, I enjoyed it so much
it was my first live-experience with The National

on About Today you can see a ballerina-shoe in his trouser-pocket ;D
he drank something out of it, I think it was wine funny!
all Band-Members are such likable

Racing like a pro

Can someone post the Blank Slate from the Mistaken For Strangers single? I've got the vinyl but no way to transfer it to an mp3.

Dear Holidayrainbowlights,

I apologize for the M4 error. Here is an actual MP3 version of "Blank Slate" for you. For good measure, i also put up "Santa Clara", the other B-side from that single, just in case.
