Band: Glen Hansard (guitar), Colm Mac Con Iomaire (violin), Joe Doyle (bass), Rob Bochnik (guitar), Dave Hingerty (drums), Romy (piano)

Notes (by Courtney):
During only the second song, Glen shouts, “One!” in response to a guitar flub, and the few hundred of us in the Footsbarn tent know instantly: 1) The band is underprepared; 2) They are gonna enjoy it; 3) We are invited in. Spontaneity is where The Frames have always shone. Intimacy is their home.

The count reaches 20 by Keepsake, when Glen’s guitar sacrifices itself to the gods. The tally is abandoned. We surrender — not just to the swell of Red Chord, or to Heyday’s peak, but to the endless mountain. To the ship on our back.

If any band has earned the right to a full night in the Messy Room, it’s The Frames. If any band has mastered the balance of light and shade, the serious and the silly, it is The Frames. Are we weeping from joy, from sorrow, or from laughter? Yes.
