I was lucky enough to see Jeff at the Chris Knox Benefit Concert at Le Poisson Rouge on Thursday night. The whole show was incredible, but Jeff in particular was (of course) mind-blowing. It was pretty crazy being surrounded by 500 other NMH fanatics. I'm happy to report that the man is alive and well, and that he even explicitly said he missed performing in front of an audience.
The setlist was:
Oh Comely
A Baby for Pree
Two-Headed Boy pt. II
In the Aeroplane over the Sea
Engine
Here are three very poor youtube videos of the show:

No way! Maybe I should have made this topic before the show, that way we could do an acclaimed music mangum meet-up. We may not have seen each other considering how packed the venue was, but I was the only person I saw who had large X's written on my hands on account of me being under 21. What did you think of the show? One of the best experiences of your life, or the best?
haha i had those Xs too but i rubbed them off. So ugly! hehe.
I thought it was really awesome. I wasn't really paying too much attention to Kyp because the friend i was with was hungry at the time and so we went to the bar and had a bite to eat. the only thing about the night that annoyed me was that when we came back for the comedian i was stuck behind this really huge guy and had to stand on my tip toes to see over him for jeff mangum. it was annoying but i dealt with it for the beauty and amazingness.
