The Swell Season @ 92YTribeca (more by Chris La Putt)

"Glen was as modest and down to earth as ever. He became frustrated when his guitar didn't do what he wanted. He thanked everyone for coming (especially Paddy, or is it Patty, in the front row who he thinks has been at every NYC show he's ever played), and for paying money to do so. He acknowledged that he expected the great success of last year to not always be there in the future. I imagine he is fine with the possibility that it won't always be Radio City and the Academy Awards, but I have no doubt The Swell Season can do it again..." [me]As one Anonymous pointed out a month ago, they are doing it again. The Swell Season will headline Radio City Music Hall for the second time on January 19, 2010. Josh Ritter opens the show. Tickets go on sale Friday at noon.
The first time they played Radio City was May 2008. A live recording of the show is not available for sale, but audio from many other dates on that same tour is.
The new NYC show is a full month after all of their previously announced tour dates. The new album "Strict Joy" is out October 27th. Video of Glen and Marketa playing new songs for NPR, below...
