Ooh that news also says more UK and US dates for next year will be announced "in the coming months." Nothing about Homecoming, but I'm thinking it's a possibility. Even if it's not, getting to see them live again is something I've been looking forward to for too long now.

I agree, Homecoming is still a possibility, if not likely. This announcement makes me happy as I was afraid they’d rush the announcement and the fest would be this fall… hoping it’s next spring. Now, I’m terrified that pearl jam dates may conflict with the Nats

I will be SOOOO happy if we get a Homecoming this year. With the brand new Icon Music Center right there too, I can definitely see them taking advantage

So I know it's not The National, but what does everyone think of the two new Big Red Machine tracks?
The first one is Justin and Anais Mitchell singing, and it's really nice.
The newest one is just Aaron taking full lead vocals and playing acoustic guitar and it's so much better than I thought it was going to be. I really like his style of singing on here.

I have never been big on Big Red Machine. I think it suffered from just bad timing when their first album was released. But this one feels like it could be the one that sets it apart from their respective side projects.

I love Aaron's vocals on The Ghost of Cincinnati. Reminiscent of Elliott Smith. Really looking forward to hearing more of this album.

Yeah that's about how I feel too. I liked their first one, but I didn't love it and I haven't played it too much. This one definitely sounds like it's going to be better, honestly. I have high hopes this time around.
edit: liked it in the sense that it was nice, and some song stood out, but it didn't stand out as a whole

If any of you guys and gals on the other side of the pond need a new variant of Boxer:
The National –Boxer
The fourth album from Cincinnati natives The National first arrived in 2007 and was their first on a major label, and while its impact wasn’t as big as that of its follow-up High Violet, which saw them break into the Billboard Chart’s top five for the first time, Boxer did make inroads into European charts and also includes two contributions from Sufjan Stevens, for whom Bryce Dessner had been a touring band member for some years and who just happens to live in the same New York neighbourhood as the Dessner brothers.
Boxer joins our centenary line-up with a new and exclusive repress on gold vinyl and limited to only 500 copies.

If this is available online, I am going to try to get it even though I have at least 5 copies of this record.

Their website says there will be some. Might be difficult trying to snag one and who knows with UK shipping and prices too.

I don't think so, I really don't. I feel like some bands feel no need to repress limited things ever again. The National aren't exactly hurting for cash so I think it doesn't happen, but I guess you can never say never.

Yeahhh I think I want this even though I have multiple copies… but it says it only ships to the UK.If any of you guys and gals on the other side of the pond need a new variant of Boxer:

I like the two aforementioned tracks and I love the third single "Renegade (feat. Taylor Swift)" which was just released today. That being said, I hope they don't release too many more singles prior to the album drop. This is one of my most anticipated albums of the year.

Yeah I think I’m done with listening to the singles. I feel there will be more, but I want to hear the album in full. I like Renegade a lot. It almost almost sounds like it could have been on Evermore.

New signed and unsigned prints to support their crew
I don’t think I’m going to get one but I really like them. I already have 4 National related pieces hanging in my apartment, soon to be 5 when the frame for the Cherry Tree Vol. 3 print arrives. But I really like these pieces!

Are you going to grab one? I'm trying to decide if I want/need one and which one I like best. The fact you can get it framed already is pretty cool too.

Yeah, I grabbed an unsigned I Need my Girl mini for my daughter, who will be moving into a new place within the next couple of weeks. I know she's a fan and thought this would be a cool housewarming gift.
