Death Cab For Cutie & The Postal Service<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

LIVE AT AMERIS BANK AMPITHEATRE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few days ago Sidetracks & Detours reporters were reading a Paste on-line report about an anticipated gig to be shared by Death Cab For Cutie and The Postal Service. The gig seems to have gone well !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week, Ben Gibbard pulled double-duty in Atlanta during Death Cab for Cutie and The Postal Service\u2019s co-headlining American tour. Both of Gibbard\u2019s bands have been celebrating the 20th anniversary of Transatlanticism<\/em> and Give Up<\/em>, respectively, and the triumphant show has been nothing but a resounding success for multiple generations of fans of both bands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paste editor-in-chief Josh Jackson recently wrote about his experience at the show<\/a>, most especially how both sets evoked a nostalgia for the early days of Paste magazine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m certain I wasn\u2019t the only one transported to a very specific time and place in my life, and the venue actually got louder whenever a song ended and the audience roared their approval,\u201d he wrote. \u201cIt\u2019s just that indie rock in those first years of the new millennium was very un-danceable. Ben Gibbard and company hardly moved on stage, and the crowd followed suit, even during the relative bop of \u2018Sound of Settling.\u2019 At indie rock shows in 2003, we didn\u2019t sit and we didn\u2019t dance. We stood nearly motionless and cheered politely between songs.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut if my body was still, my mind was racing during songs like \u201cThe New Year,\u201d \u2018Title and Registration\u2019 and \u2018Passenger Seat.\u2019 This was the music of every late-night drive at a time when we were just getting Paste off the ground,\u201d he continued. \u201cI was older than the typical Death Cab for Cutie fan at 31, a father of young kids and husband to a wife who was getting tired of my absence. I\u2019d poured so much of my energy\u2014and increasingly my identity\u2014into this new venture, and as much as I was basking in the response it had gotten, I was starting to sense that more important things were slipping away. When the band played the title track, and Gibbard began pleading, over and over, \u2018I need you so much closer,\u2019 I was reminded again, by one of rock\u2019s truest romantics, just who in my life has brought me the most joy, and felt immense gratitude. Music doesn\u2019t have to make you dance to make you feel, and Death Cab had us all in our feels.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
