From their mailing list:
Adored Mailing List Recipients,
Oh MLR, we have such news to give you. We know we've been cluttering your inbox here and there with, alternately, the comings and the goings of various members of the Decemberists during their time in Hiatus Mode, but we have a particularly juicy tidbit to impart today.
The band is emerging, jerboa-like, from their time in hibernation.
And this is no ordinary band-reemergence. No: the band is kicking off their time out of suspended animation with a gala concert event entitled "V is for Victory," a benefit show for Victory Academy, Oregon's only full-time accredited school for kids on the autism spectrum. It's to be held on May 30th at the Crystal Ballroom in sunny Portland, Oregon. Sallie Ford is opening. And in an effort to reacclimatize themselves to the new atmosphere of the outside world, they'll be communing with their younger selves by playing Castaways and Cutouts, their seminal 2002 long-player debut, in its entirety. You heard that right, folks. They'll even be playing "Cocoon." We have it on good authority that they, as of press time, do not even remember how to play "Cocoon."Â Of course, they'll be playing a second sets of sentimental favorites as well. No one is expected to leave unsatisfied.
Thank you all so much for your overwhelming support for “V is for Victory,†tickets sold out very quickly! We’re excited to announce we are able to add a second night at the Crystal Ballroom on May 29th.
Laura Veirs will be our special guest on this show but the rest of the details remain the same: we’ll perform Castaways and Cutouts in its entirety along with a second set of favorites with all proceeds going to support Victory Academy, Oregon’s only full-time accredited school for kids on the autism spectrum.
