    Amazing

    by Anonymous on 11/9/12Keswick Theatre - Glenside

    I've seen DCFC several times over the past ten years and they've always been great. This show was particularly incredible because it was as if DCFC boiled down my favorite elements. Ben's voice is amazing, and the use of acoustics allowed his voice to carry the emotion in each song. His personality gave the show further depth and just made the whole experience feel that much more intimate. I wish he would record a live album, or come every week and perform.

    Great set.

    Couldn't get enough of all of his acoustic version of songs from Death Cab for Cutie to The Postal Service. It was so chill. It felt like a night hanging out with Ben Gibbard.

    The sweetest night of 2012

    by bittersweet00 on 11/7/12Town Hall - New York

    Words are not enough to describe the concert. I've been Ben Gibbard's fan since I was a teenager, but it was the first time I had the chance to see his performance. It was just amazing, the union of simplicity and talent. The whole concert was breathtaking and I will definitely see his concert again when I have the chance.

    AMAZING

    by sage1588 on 11/7/12Town Hall - New York

    This was basically a Death Cab and Postal Service concert, with some great solo songs thrown in there. Ben was by himself on stage with a guitar and a piano and played a bunch of hits. It was awesome to hear some of my favorite songs unlike I have ever heard them before. Wish he would put out a live album!!!

    Dissapointed...

    by silvibv on 11/6/12Somerville Theatre - Somerville

    I'm a big fan of DCFC and Postal Service, so obviously I was really excited about this venue. The place was ugly and run down, the opening act was boring, Ben's energy was very low compared to DCFC's shows.

    He performed a great mix of solo, DCFC and Postal Service songs. He was charismatic and a delight to see!

    I will follow Ben Gibbard into the dark

    2nd time I've seen Ben in concert. That man really knows how to put on a good show and speak to an audience. He's incredible.

    So AMAZING!!

    by Sather on 10/26/09El Rey Theatre - Los Angeles

    I did not expect it to be as good as it was. I was over the opening guy 3 songs into his set. But Ben Gibbard and Jay Farrar were phenomenal!!! So was the band they were playing with...all of them were great!

    Ben and Jay

    by TragicFig on 10/25/09El Rey Theatre - Los Angeles

    If you are a fan of thoughtful, outstanding music this is your show. Simply incredible watching a group of extremely talented musicians plying their craft. Superb. I hope they add more dates!

    disappointing

    by rubbz on 10/24/09El Rey Theatre - Los Angeles

    i have noone to blame but myself. i should've read the act more closely. i had never heard of jay farrar before and expected a more postal service-esq side project from ben gibbard. i should've saw this genre coming given the tribute to jack kerouac. his stories are as longwinded and belabored as the the indie country folk creation. i actually enjoyed the opening act from the long winters more. overall, it was well executed as expected, but the songs were forgettable. gibbard has done better.

    The show was amazing. Granted i was at the very front so i heard a lot better than most im sure. The songs were done very well and the entire album matches it.

    I new what to expect going into the show, but I was hoping for slightly less Jay Farrar, and slightly more Ben Gibbard. After all, the show is billed as "Ben Gibbard and Jay Farrar,." All in all though, it was fun, and they were good.

    Gibbard & Farrar

    by Martin715 on 10/24/09El Rey Theatre - Los Angeles

    Great show! I bought the album earlier in the week and played the hell out of it. They played it straight through with a couple of cherrys at the end. As much as I like the studio versions, the live performance was much better. Mark Spencer kept the volume and intensity high, and Gibbard and Farrar traded vocal styles as if sharing the wheel in a Kerouac inspired cross country road trip. And the el rey was nice, not too crowded, and a cozy intimate feel.
