The National - Cherry Tree Club

It's from the Mission Ballroom show in Denver from this past year. That's really cool.

Oh wow - I was at this show!!! Cannot wait to hear this (again)

Not a big fan of how the records are just stuck into the box without any additional jackets.

The box feels weirdly empty for what's in it, right?

Edit: or maybe not empty, just...underfilled?

Yeah I thought the same thing. Definitely feels like there is room for jackets. Maybe they were scrapped in order to ship asap

Was hoping for another scarf. I like scarves.

And they're thicker than masks so, you know, they have medical applications too.

Just landed - haven’t had a chance to start spinning yet but yes, that’s quite a set list. Very cool.

I agree with @Indymisanthrope and @Djxfactor511 that they could have used to throw outer sleeves on the records (my box is kind of collapsing), but man this is fucking awesome. Well worth the wait.

How many beanie variants are there? Mine is black with yellow letters.

I’ve only seen black, yellow, and blue (what we got) so far.

Not sure how it comes through on the record, but Where Is Her Head was absolutely phenomenal when I saw it at the Mission Ballroom. Really wish they had pictures of the show too in the set. Matt running through the crowd cloths lining people with the mic cord was awesome

OMG YES... that one was an absolute highlight

Kinda ironic that the namesake song of the club hasn't made it to the live album yet.

Hasn’t been played too many times I reckon! Haha!
Edit: According to Setlist.fm only 20 times ever and not since 2010.

The guy who yelled this at Matt & Bryce during the Q&A session at the Beacon last year had become a real favorite running inside joke between me and the friend I was there with.

Mine is supposedly out for delivery today. I needed some good news.

That happened?

Received my box today. Pretty cool. Anyone want to trade a blue beanie for my yellow one?

 

[Space Wanderer]

Yup. Guy got called on and he hopped up and started shouting about why do they hate the first record, and how they never play Cherry Tree even though the fan club is named after it. Didn’t catch all of the rant because he got drowned out with laughter, but the response from Matt & Bryce pretty much amounted to “yeah we don’t really like that record.”

You and me both. I got the yellow beanie and the purple armband. Probably won't ever wear the yellow beanie but the vinyl was worth the $50 dollar price tag so I am not going to complain too much.
