So here they are. The complete set of photos. As such, I present the astoundingly creative and energetic mountain goats experience. Highlights included singing along to "No Children" with the entire audience. And hearing songs from the past, the almost present, and future songs in the works. You say you've never heard of the mountain goats? Get thyself to themountaingoats.net or http://www.lastplanetojakarta.com/
 

John Darnielle of the Mountain Goats.

This is the opening band, Destroyer. Dan Bejar (I think?) is the singer in the blue shirt. Backed by the members of frog eyes (Melanie Campbell, Grayson Walker, Carey Mercer, and Michael Rak, I think).

Destroyer/frog eyes takes a well-deserved bow at the end of their set.

The Mountain Goats ... John Darnielle and Peter Hughes.

John Darnielle is one fierce singer.

Peter Hughes with his bass. You'd be amazed at how much he adds to the performance.
 

When John wants to talk to the crowd, you fucking listen.

And when Peter wants to show off his ringtone, well, I guess you listen.

Yeah, that's what we thought.

Did you see the t-shirt?

The mountain goats kick ass, no doubt about it.
