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!
[Meloy takes the stage at the Fez and performs to a crowd lit by candlelight. Girls were heard swooning.]
[Here Colin had a dramatic finish, with an "i'm kneeling on the floor!" guitar solo]
Much more after the jump...
[Meloy looks a lot like this fellow in the above photo]
[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.
