Top Comments of this video!! :3
I made Robin laugh at the beginning of Blue Ridge Mountains and this is one of the things I'm most proud of. This is the band of my life and finally my dream came true when I saw them live. Their music has been with me on my highest and lowest moments and I think listening their music is one of my top 5 things I love most to do on my life. Thanks for existing Fleet Foxes.

I wholeheartedly agree with all the comments regarding the sound quality of the recording, Robin's voice and stage presence, and the musicianship of the whole band. However, massive shout out must go to Christian Wargo and his understated, but huge influence, on the band's sound. His high harmonies are so integral to the Fleet Foxes sound. Without them, the band would sound a lot different. Apparently he was solely responsible for the amazing vocal arrangements for the Mykonos coda, one of the loveliest passages of music and harmonies in their back catalogue.

You can tell a band is unconditionally adored when a false start gets the biggest ovation of the set so far.

An exceptional band of brothers... as an old guy (61) it warms my heart to see passion and musicality on this scale. Easily as good as any classic band you could mention. The acid test for any act is how they translate albums in a live setting. FF make a monster crowd like this Pitchfork audience seem somehow intimate. Amazing musicianship. Their cover of Curtis Mayfield and the Impression's "Fool For You" was just sublime. Hopefully there are more teenage kids out there starting to want to take the whole thing forward like the Foxes obviously did when they first formed. Not at all hyperbolic to call them North America's finest!!!

Just discovered these guys. I am close to 70 and spend my YouTube time reminiscing with the bands of the 60’s and 70’s. All I can say is that new music is alive and well as long as this kind of talent emerges once in a while. What a relief to find a band with something to say and a unique way of saying it.
