Ooh, I'm digging the NVCR intern shirt. I think I'll have to get one.

Cecil's voice is ridiculously soothing, I'll give you that.

I could quite happily listen to him reading the phonebook.

also, all Disparition albums are a free download from now until the end of the year (though I'm pretty sure I've posted them all on SA for free at some point anyway).

Where would I be able to get Transmutations? Disparition.info?

Edit: Because Transmutations is fantastic and probably my favourite of your work.

I would have been upset if all Ricman got was one song during the weather. I also bought a CD, got it signed, and got my picture taken with her after the show. Cause she owns. Sorry that you're lame, though.

If Night Vale ever comes down NZ way, I can only loudly hope that they bring Eliza or Jason Webley.

My favourite weather is still "Promise to The Moon" from The Debate. Jason Webley is the best.

I got to see him live during the Librarian tour, it was absolutely awesome :cool:

He also played a really great song about giraffes.

I've seen him live a couple of times now, and he's always amazing. Last time he played us some of the voice mails he got from the Giraffe Farm owner after writing that song (https://youtu.be/G4A9lEn070Q). They were some of the most surreal things I've ever heard.

"Stupid" from Company Picnic is my favorite weather of all time.

That was one of the few weathers I'd heard before it was in Night Vale. Brendan Maclean is great, and just released a new EP that is equally great.

I finally heard the cross over with The Thrilling Adventure Hour and...Did anyone else think it came off as a bad fan fiction piece? Sorry Fink :(

I enjoyed it, but it's not the best example of either podcast. That said, I'd pay literally dozens of dollars to hear Sadie and Cecil read things to each other.

It's always nice to hear Mark Gagliardi as John Peters, you know, the farmer?

I met him a few months back after a TAH show and he signed my poster as "Mark Gagliardi, you know, the actor" after I mentioned that I was also a Night Vale fan (Hal signed it as Steve Carlsberg, too).

Edit: what I'm saying is that the TAH cast needs to show up more on Night Vale. I want to hear Cecil and Sadie read lists of things to each other.

Does anyone have a setlist of what Jason Webley has been playing on the tour? I'm always interested in how much new stuff he's performing as I live in eternal hope of a new album one day.

Oh man, that's a great bunch of songs.
I'm in New Zealand, so I don't think I'll get to see him again for a few years, but I was lucky enough to catch him when he was here earlier this year.

Huh, went poking through Topatoco, and noticed that they've got a Night Vale Tarot deck coming soon. Looking at the full set, each one's got a ton of flavor with it. Gonna have to get me one.

for what it's worth there is about an hour's worth of new Disparition music in the audiobook that is not (nor will ever be) on any album nor used in the actual podcast at any point.

also in addition to Cecil the audiobook also includes voice work by Dylan Marron and Retta

I'm listening to the audiobook right now, and I'm really digging the music. And everything else, but especially the music.

The Auckland show was fantastic all around, I loved every second of it. I don't know what else to say except that I'm so grateful you and the rest of the Night Vale crew were willing to sit in a plane for 15 goddamned hours each way to share it with us.

Seconding this. I had an absolute blast, and meeting everyone afterwards was fantastic. Even if I did get a bit embarrassingly enthusiastic about Earwicker's work.

Also I got my Night Vale Tarot deck signed, which is super cool.

Alice Isn't Dead, which is written by Joseph Fink and produced by Disparition, was really good. I enjoyed it a lot more than I'd been enjoying recent Night Vale.

Edit: Err, if you haven't listened to it already, I mean. I somehow forgot this was the Night Vale thread, so didn't think that you're probably already aware of it.

Is this the best place to talk about how much I'm loving I Only Listen To The Mountain Goats? Because that's been incredibly good so far.

It's great just listening to two well spoken dudes (and their equally well spoken guests) talking about art and politics and the value of having roadies and so on. And I can't wait to buy the covers album when the season wraps up. So I guess I have nothing of substance to say other than to just kind of flail super positively, but if you aren't listening to it you should really give it a shot.

Yeah, I went out and listened to a whole bunch of Ibibio Sound Machine as soon as I was done with episode 3 - they're super good.

I'm most looking forward to Eliza Rickman's cover, whatever it ends up being, because Eliza is always great, but seriously, every one of them has been top notch so far.

Any other goons going to the show in Wellington tonight? I'll be at Known Goon Hangout The Malthouse if anyone wants to get a beer beforehand.

I'd say "I'm the one with a beard, wearing a blazer" but that might not narrow it down.
