Pictorial Review: Colin Meloy @ the Fez 01.24.05

Yesterday we gave you the Fever and today it's the Decemberists Colin Meloy. Last night we headed over to the late show at the Fez to see him perform his own songs along with some Morrissey tunes. Due to the fact that this was a solo show, the images aren't very plentiful, but we've included captions and a video clip!

[Here Colin had a dramatic finish, with an "i'm kneeling on the floor!" guitar solo]

Much more after the jump...

[And finally, it's here that we can tell from the tag on the left pocket of Meloy's jeans that...he's wearing Diesel! Shocking.]

Video clip from last nights show. It's part song, part story about song. We like to give you the full experience. Well partially, in an 80 second clip.

Stereogum has a longer review if you're into reading

Brooklyn Vegan has great pictures from Saturday's show in the blizzard.

  • Just the fact that homeboy knows which Morrissey songs to cover says it all. Which ones? Well:

    I Know Very Well How I got My Name

    Pregnant For The Last Time

    Jack The Ripper

    I’ve Changed My Plea to Guilty

    Sister I’m A Poet

    Every Day Is Like Sunday

    Respect. If you only know one song from this list, well, this comment is wasted on the likes of you.
