a take away show. [acoustic versions]

 
so, this one is definitely going to be the longest post in my series of the best live shows. it also took me the longest to decide which videos to include. reason being: it's my favorite one. it seems as though every band that i like has done at least one take away show. they're presented by la blogotheque and they have recorded the most beautiful shows humanly possible, they have given the artists the space for the most energetic performences, shot their material at the most stunning places and created magical atmospheres. the shows are often a little crazy and there are always some random bystanders, either taking in the scene enchantedly or deciding to participate somehow. the bands interact with their environment, walk around aimlessly in city streets or play in trams or the like. or the artist just happens to be on a roof. well, why not? i could list dozens and dozens of perfect shows but i at least tried to narrow it down somehow.

let's start out with the guy on the roof, mr. sufjan stevens:

how about noah and the whale:


or one that i particularly like by alt-j (∆):

might make a part two of this... or: go check it out.
