Notes: A solo set from John Darnielle of the Mountain Goats headlining the 2011 Plan-It-X festival in Bloomington, Indiana. Recorded from the front of the stage. No compression was added, as I think that dynamics are important at solo tMG shows. I normalized and boosted the volume in Sound Studio during post-production. The audience applause and some of the more aggro songs might be a little hot as a result, but the volume boost was necessary for songs such as Wild Sage (one verse of which was sung off mic), It Froze Me, and the unamplified guitar during No Children.
