Mar. 22nd, 2014 09:54 pmI am home from seeing Welcome To Night Vale, the live traveling show. It was a good time! Without spoiling anything, I will say there is a tiny bit of audience participation, and getting to make direct eye contact with the Voice Of Night Vale was very surreal.
I had to laugh, though, when the Weather came out beforehand, because it was a folk-rock duo and the minute I saw them I thought, god, they look painfully Austin. And sure enough, halfway through their opening set, one of them said "We're from Austin" and I just about died.
It was a lot more dynamic than other radio shows I've seen performed live (yes, I'm like a collector of these things) -- Cecil really performed the reading physically as well as vocally, which was fun to watch. And now I'm going to picture him making faces and eyerolling and gesticulating alone in a sound booth whenever I listen to the show.
Anyway, lots of fun, and I got a poster, and also savagely murdered by a librarian.
