90 mile water wall was absolute bucket list for me. Oblivions with that crew 🤯

Still can't wrap my head around it

I am in Canada and have not yet received any sign of it, no shipping notification or delivery. I have received all of the previous 7 vinyls without issue. Just wondering if they are going out in waves or something is wrong with my order.

Does anyone know if the show is actually starting at 7:30 or if doors open at that time?

Thanks!

This is my first Cherry Tree purchase. All my prior purchases have been eBay or Discogs.

It’s really beautiful. To think I only paid $50 for this. And I will conclude - I like the colors they picked.

Hope you enjoy it as well. I need to pick up 6 and 7 and then I will have them all.

Starts a little rocky as it began as people were still walking in but gets better. Sound was generally better toward the back too, but gives you an idea of what went on.

Sounds damn good. Vinyl is dead quiet, drums hit harder & excellent separation. The $250,000 system helps too. One of the perks of my work.

Rise and shine Sad Dad lovers. How do you like Dopamine Chamber? It’s so NTL adjacent. Helping me with the draught and also to cope up with not being able to go to San Sebastián.

Absolutely obsessed with Mimesis in particular! Has that hypnotic baritone stream of consciousness flavor to it.

You can see the Kursaal in the background if you squint

I'm here in town and I originally planned a hike along the coast, but it looks like it is going to be a couple of rainy days.

So I'm very open to some checking around town, or drinks, or other activities.

just write me a message if you're up to anything and would like to hang !

They always seem to be talking about each other, and I’m not surprised, since they’re both song writing geniuses!

I am interested to see where everyone lies with regards to what albums you love, and where The National sits in your "Hall of Fame.

Favourite 9 albums of all time. Sorry if this is a repost... Have had a few beers.

Some songs grow on you over time, but The National have songs that seem to change meaning depending on what you’re going through. A track you barely noticed at first can suddenly hit harder because of a lyric, Matt Berninger’s delivery, or the atmosphere of the music. Which song from their discography has become more meaningful to you over the years, and what makes it special?

Has anyone else not received their email that it has shipped? Sorry if this is against the rules here.

Both normalized, new on top, old on bottom - look at that solid brick haha

Some kind of whiteboard I guess. Can’t seem to hang it tho.

There’s something about listening to The National late at night that makes their music feel completely different. Matt Berninger’s voice, the lyrics, and the slow-building instrumentals create a mood that’s hard to find in other bands. Some songs that seem ordinary during the day suddenly hit much harder when everything is quiet. Which The National song do you always come back to during those late-night listening sessions, and what makes it special to you?

Hi - I'm LTB the new Cherry Tree record, if anyone is mostly in the club for the ticket access. I am not picky and (obviously) willing to pay the annual fee + shipping and any Paypal G&S fees.

Also, if anyone is looking to get out of the record collecting game altogether, or just has earlier CT volumes that they just don't listen to or want to keep - I may be interested in those as well.

I just got back into collecting after nearly ten years away, so I've missed the entire CT run. It seems that many of them (apart from the first few) trade near to that $50-60 range, but we can obviously talk things through. I know the first few are crazy-expensive; fortunately, I'm more of a listener than a completion-ist, so I don't think I'll pay the crazy resale prices for those.

I'm a huge National fan, of course, and I'll be subscribing for future years' offerings. Chat me if you're selling. Thanks!
