Sufjan Stevens
October 13, 2006
I haven’t heard too much from Sufjan Stevens lately. Greetings From Michigan was a great album, but frankly SevenSwans was a tad too religious, and I just couldn’t get into his album about Illinois. This set looks prety good, though. He sounds a little tired when he starts to sing on “Sister,” but then he kicks in with his request for the audience to refer to him as “The Majesty Songbird” for the duration of the show.

Thanks, this is a nice show. I haven’t listened to Sufjan in a long time, but I happen to have art for this show. I got it from a single-song download of “Majesty Snowbird” a while ago.
