Keenan checked in --- sounds like Jeff M didn't take the stage, but after the big finale show, the fun didn't stop there.
About 300 indie-pop kids from the show followed Julian Koster (of the Music Tapes and Jeff's bandmate in Neutral Milk Hotel) as he led them from the 40 Watt about a half mile away in a kazoo parade (I think where they played the same four notes for 20 minutes). Eventually it morphed into a game of tag with bells and blindfolds -- basically a game of blindfold hot potato tag. I'm not sure if Jeff M was one of the blindfolded tag-ers - but sounds like the evening still ended up being pretty memorable (even if there wasn't a debuting of new songs).
Thanks so much for checking in Keenan! We can't wait to read all about the shows.
