John Darnielle is the lead Goat of the Mountain Goats. I was super pumped for last Tuesday’s Colbert Report. Why? Cuz’ John was on it — stupid! I’ve been a fan of tMG for a few years and I’ve always enjoyed John’s superior lyrical talent and his sharp humor. John is coming to Nashville with the band on November 20th and he’ll be playing at the Mercy Lounge. Get tickets here. If you show — look for me. I’ll be the fan boy screaming loudly. Very loudly.
