Comment

The 1998 Florida Popfest. Fifteen bands played: Neutral Milk Hotel, Kincaid, The Mountain Goats, Racecar, True Love Always, Congratulations, Of Montreal, Masters of the Hemisphere, Crush 22, Silver Apples, The Gerbils, Gritty Kitty, Four Head, Elf Power, and The Music Tapes.

Here's a little review by Chris M.: it seemed like that was the show where everyone, the fans, Jeff, the rest of the band, realised something more was going on here than just another "indie pick of the month". The festival was two or three nights if I remember and NMH were to close the last night of the festival. Because of various delays, NMH didn't get to come on until about 2 am. You would think most of the kids would have been exhausted by this point and shuffling home. But they didn't. The place was packed and it seemed as if the whole crowd was one person, all jumping and screaming every last word Jeff was singing back at him. I have a great memory of Jeff looking back at Julian with this, "What the hell is all this about?" look.

Notes: 65:50 Stealth aud. Overmod, little range, some instruments not audible. All that and it's a fantastic show, even if you have to imagine a little bit. "Ferris Wheel" is flawed and beautiful. Yeah, label me another one who misses Jeff Magnum.
