A trip to see some Fleet Foxes with Mortimer Duckbrella + friends.  Orpheum Theatre, Boston MA – May 17, 2011, HD FLIP + FCP.  I stitched this video later that night.

The official Mykonos video is OUTSTANDING:

Such beautiful animation.
The door slammed loud and rose up a cloud of dust on us
Footsteps follow, down through the hollow sound, torn up.

And you will go to Mykonos
With a vision of a gentle coast
And a sun to maybe dissipate
Shadows of the mess you made

Pallid animals in the snow-tipped pines I find
hatching from the seed of your orphaned mind, all night

And you will go to Mykonos
With a vision of a gentle coast
And a sun to maybe dissipate
Shadows of the mess you made

Brother you don’t need to turn me away
I was waiting down at the ancient gate

You’ll go
Wherever you go today
You’ll go today

I remember how they took you down
As the winter turned the meadow brown

You’ll go
Wherever you go today
You’ll go today

When I’m walking brother don’t you forget
It ain’t often that you’ll ever find a friend

You’ll go
Wherever you go today…
