The National 2011 Full concert poster set from the Beacon

The National 2011 Full concert poster set from the Beacon

I love this poster set but no longer have space for it.

The set features six panels, one for each night at the beacon, when all put side by side depicts a futuristic New York City skyline with levitating buildings.
Individual posters measure 11.5" by 35", with the full six-panel set forming a 69" by 35" display.

I’ve listed it on eBay but feel free to message any questions or offers.

Matt Look alike GLP ad PSA

I was pretty concerned when I saw this fella on an ad for a RO glp 1 commercial. Thought It was our guy Matt. Don’t be alarmed, it’s not him.

1 reason I love The National

The overall sentiment of their music seems to be "The whole world's fucked-up, and it's only getting worse, but I'll still love you until the last shred of daylight disappears."

It's just like this overall acceptance. Things suck, but there's still love everywhere anyway.

Next National Album(s)

I know Matt is still touring Get Sunk - but I'm trying to do the math and work out when we might see the main band become active again? It's been 2.5 years since Laugh Track. TOO LONG DAMMIT!

Cherry Tree worth it?

My wife is a huge fan. Like 70k+ minutes listened on Spotify. She recently asked me about band fan clubs, as I've been in a few over the years. We're just wondering if this is still an active one and worth the money?

I've been part of a few that really missed their promises and eventually silently went away, and just don't want her to have to go through the same disappointment.

TIA, any input is welcome!

Don’t hate on me - but was anyone else underwhelmed by Matt’s “trio” shows in Australia?

Lack of a drummer and bass player really took away the impact of many of the songs.

I couldn’t wait to see Bonnet of Pins live but it didn’t go off the way it would with a full band.

Was a nice surprise to get Slow Show in Melbourne. However, many of the songs almost felt like a spoken word show.

I must admit Matt’s voice was sounding great though and highlighted it without a full band playing.

Am I being too harsh?

Worst Songs by The National

By far and away, I personally feel that Grease in Your Hair is the epitome of a negative caricature of what your least favorite friend thinks The National’s music is.
(I pretty much adore the rest of their entire catalogue, but curious what you might think)
