Bon Iver Singing A Cappella Before A Gig, In A Hallway. Wow.

Bon Iver, surely the best band for a couple of years, decided to sing 'For Emma' in a hallway before they started a gig in Paris. Beautiful.

best band for a couple of years? while subjective, anointing "the best band" is akin to egotistically lauding your own taste, which to others may be dubious at best.

criticalthought: who pissed you off today? i wasn't stating it as fact - i was merely emphasising the fact that i think they're fucking brilliant. next time i want to make a comment i'll run it by you first. honestly, anal people like you really fuck me off.

What? I submit 2 music videos with the guy to no avail and you get this sifted? Him singing in a muthafuckin hallway?

DAMN YOU SIFT, DAMN YOU!

i feel your pain ElJardinero - the sift can be a headfuck sometimes. just promoted Wolves for you.

Thanks!

I was about to head off to the clocktower with my rifle but I guess I can just make some hot coco.

This is fantastic. I much prefer people singing in a hallway to a studio.
