Athens Popfest 2006: Mountain Goats MP3sAthens Popfest 2006: Mountain Goats MP3s
The show I raved about at this year's Popfest was recorded by the incrediblely talented Sloan Simpson. Since this was probably in my top 10 concerts ever you can imagine how ecstatic I am that I can relive it over and over and over.
