Title: Andrew Bird

Thought I'd start a thread for Andrew Bird.

Here's a video I recorded the first time I saw him in concert. I saw Andrew Bird open for My Morning Jacket at the 2012 Forecastle Festival (10th Anniversary - Curated by MMJ). Here's the song, "Desperation Breeds".

10 years ago today Andrew Bird played Mercy Lounge in Nashville, and Patrick sat in on drums for Fake Palindromes.  You can stream or download that performance here:

I was introduced to Andrew Bird, thanks to MMJ, just after The Mysterious Production of Eggs came out.  Now I've seen him 10 times (not counting his sit-in with MMJ at Bonnaroo '06) and it's never not amazing.  It's also really cool to think back on seeing him at a small clubs, and since this show I've seen him headline the Ryman 3 times.
