Reports from our message board about last night’s Wexner Center show:

So I stood about a foot away from Jeff Mangum’s right elbow as he played Engine to end the E6 Holiday Surprise tour with Julian Koster on singing saw. Anybody who knows anything about Jeff Mangum knows what a momentous occasion this was. Truly, ridiculously, unbelievably unreal. The show itself was what one would expect from the most positive traveling commune on the planet- loud and quiet, disasterously beautiful music.
