Bon Iver "Creature Fear" Chicago 4.10.08 

anyone else still obsessed with this video

This is the sound of genius.

God, that solo was just mind-blowing. Amazing.

I love his voice. When he talks... I love how deep it is (: And, his singing voice is one of the most beautiful i've ever heard.

If you're a fan of 'Creature Fear', this is one of the best versions out there. Justin's reverb session is epic... unfortunately, the few dozen people they were playin for had no idea what they were witnessing...

Madly in love with this song. Gorgeous.

muchas graciaaas!

another very underrated guitar player...

this song gives me the chills... its amazing!

im in love with this guy. his songs make me thinking about life and cry while im in bed.

a perfect performance, I love it

that's a nice guitar. His music is surreal.

I cannot wait to see him live.

Eyes wide..jaw dropped. Brint!!!

"You guys are good" "no you're good"

That guitar is beautiful

Just amazing...

I was teased by your blouse/ Spit out by your mouth-favorite line

pentatonic fits beautifully in this beginning...

and between us , this solo is giant

Gosh that snare kills

Fuck me, this is gorgeous.

It was more like an Explosions In The Sky kind of technique; a crescendo rising out of a mess of noise, build up in tempo, then stop.

+xMOE He said "You guys are good" sarcastically because he played for like 2 seconds then stopped. ahhahaha

2:41. Oops! Looks like someone forgot his own lyrics! XD The actual part goes, "I was teased by your blouse, spit out by your mouth." He said, "I was teased by your blouse, I was teased *panic* woooooo." BAHAHAHAHA, he still makes it awesome. :D

wow this shit is amazing

solo's are all about technique, he has it

i already knew that

@mathijsgitaar i heard it too man! just a few years later :)

I wonder if its possible to go to one of his concerts and not cry

@mathijsgitaar he meant jump for the climax? the chorus bit? in the reocrding its much more pumping than here

Yes. Generally Bon Iver doesn't seem to shoot for a solo with an approach of musicality, but rather goes for a more "expressionist" approach.

@mathijsgitaar you arent paranoid.... Its called creature fear

I didn't say that. I meant not usually with THIS much soul!

i heard bon iver before i had seen any sort of picture of the lead man. i instantly thought a black guy was singing. that is not an insult, there's just so much soul in his singing. he could lead a gospel choir!

fuck. so good

0:56

poke at my soul why don't you

Does anybody know which music venue this is in?

what did the guy from the crowd say at the begining?

hey, what guitar is he using?

I love this song, but it's missing the juicy bass riff right before he sings "creature fear", which is pretty much my favorite part of the song. Not bad, though. :P

What is that guitar?

anyone know what guitar that is?!

"Hi, i wanna see the intro" i think

So THIS is real music. I thought it had died off years ago...

@brandnewshoesfool no offence taken (do not ajust your youtube viewer, i am black

hard to sing.. because its awful
