Your cleanser du jour comes to us from one of the bands we're most looking forward to seeing this weekend at Outside Lands, Brooklyn's own The National. They'll be playing on Friday at 5 p.m. (right before Tom Jones (!) on the Sutro Stage), and here for your listening and viewing pleasure is a live studio rendition of "Slow Show."



I always thought Brock bore a slight resemblance to The National's frontman.
*love them* They are too good for OLF (ok that's just my opinion, and I'm still showing up with the Jason Mraz crowd to see them since they aren't doing any afters).
I wish they were doing one of the late night venue shows this weekend.
I guess it's hipper to say, "Brooklyn," not "Cincinnati." Ohio pride!
not as patient as Dulli, I suppose.
They also do a decent cover of Pretty in Pink:
