Every concert should have only one mic.

If I could go back in time and see this live, I would. Gregory Alan Isakov, Chris, and Aoife are probably my three favorite musicians and to see them all on the same stage is AMAZING

[CrustyWhiteBread]

Just your smile lit a sixty-watt bulb
..in my house
That was darkened for days
Been thinking you probably should stay

This guy. How the hell do you write that shit?
Friggin genius.

[leehjones]

It's because they are so joyous making music with each other. Just being witness to it is a blessing as little sparks of joy and love fly out of the middle.

Just a single verse she sang and she nailed it. Aoife gave different colour this song.

[Squeakity]

I sing this to my cat, since she's gotten me through suicidal depression.

[Useruser-fv]

I just wanted to see this song live but I got 3 of my favorite musicians of all time on stage together which works too

Goosebumps when Aoife jumped in. Goosebumps!

lyrics:

when the wine stops working
and you’re all run out
and all of your high hopes have all headed south
and the songs left the stable and they never came home
and there ain’t no forgetting that you’re out on your own

turned the scrub oaks to timber and you’re left without friends
and you don’t put your book down even after it ends
smoke curls up from the table in your quiet little room
and your heart’s worn the handle of an old pushing broom

broken bottles shine just like stars, make a wish anyway
just your smile lit a sixty-watt bulb in my house
that was darkened for days
been thinking you probably should stay

when the going is long gone
and the kick drum won’t kick
when you fumble with your fiddle and you’re fresh out of tricks
and the horseflies are biting but the fish never do
and your heart’s a thousand colors but they’re all shades of blue

broken bottles shine just like stars
make a wish anyway
just your smile lit a sixty-watt bulb in my house
that was darkened for days
been thinking you probably should stay
yeah, I think that you probably should stay

and our dreams on the windowsill
see those trees turning gold in the hills

The sheer joy radiating from all of them is so beautiful ❤

[junreyregidor]

Im only 19 years old but i love this kind of music

[hwodolwrkthisthin]

Everything about this is just so perfect. What a collection of talent from the songwriting to the voices to the playing. I especially appreciate Thile's inability to maintain his composure after the bass break. This is a guy who has been surrounded by the best of the best every day since his childhood and his pure joy for the music still shines through. I miss this show.

[osiasu]

This is one of the greatest performances I've ever seen.

Amazing band. I wonder what will take for the world to listen to him.

[sttommore]

Love Chris's face at the bass run. Legit did not expect that, did he? :-)

[mvfusion]

That fiddle lead in to the guitar solo--that was nice. Just, here, a solo is coming, surprise! It's guitar.

[wmf]

Simply magical.
I'd work a month of hard days to experience a night listening to an hour or two of this bliss.
I miss living in the NYC area (not that this is NYC). I'd often see Aoife or Chris, or any number of skilled musicians in small clubs in the LES.
Sadly, many of those clubs went out of business before I moved away from the area.

[mabelem]

perfect combination that group of excellent musicians!!!
