Notes[]

  • "First things first, though: I am playing two more shows this year. The first is live accompaniment for the film Sir Arne's Treasure, which is a Swedish silent from 1919. I'll be joined by John Vanderslice, Jamie Riotto, and Jason Slota at various points throughout the evening, and I was going to print up a whole program to explain what the whole deal is with what I'm doing but rehearsal took priority and so I'm telling you here instead: to accompany the Swedish film in which bad intentions come to bad ends, I thought I'd play and expand and elaborate on some songs from Sweden. One thing led to another, though, and I ended up synching up a few Hail and Farewell, Gothenburg songs, which is how I got the idea to start excavating a bunch of old Sweden-era notebooks, which is how I ended up finally setting to music a good handful of long-orphaned lyrics from the Sweden cycle: abandoned side-stories, extended soliloquies, muttered curses. So that is what we'll be doing: not all of Sweden, but a version of it, live, as accompaniment for Mauritz Stiller's gorgeous Swedish tale of lost treasures." -- John Darnielle
