Awesome music. But, with all the ridiculous charges this show will come to almost $50. I just lost a bit of respect for James Mercer and Danger Mouse. A new band doesn't get off charging this much. Oh, but I see, there's a Grammy-nomination connection. What a joke.
Mind you, The Morning Benders are pretty good too.

Yeah, $50 is steep. I have really enjoyed the videos of them playing live though, so I think I'll still go. I just hope I can find some one to go with.
