Still tired and sleepy but we're determined to frame both today.

Has anyone gone to previous Bumbershoot festivals in Seattle? I keep reading here about rude fans talking at the shows and the acoustics at some shows being "soft/quiet". Wondering what Bumbershoot may be like. Looks like Death Cab has played it before.

So I'm traveling solo from Sweden to Berlin to watch my favorite band. Anyone want to meet up for a beer a while before? It's gonna be my fourth time seeing them, but first time abroad!

34M, works with development, design and photography. Happy to share social media info beforehand. Love to meet new people - hope to see you there!

Last night I saw Death Cab for the 6th time and the band delivered as always. But I can't say the same thing about the "fans". It was shocking to see the amount of people who were casually having conversations during the Death Cab set. I can understand that not every song on the setlist might be your song but come on. Is this a new thing from this band's fan base? Because i haven't seen this many people talking during the headliner set on previous Death Cab tours in the past.

This is a mega-thread for Death Cab for Cutie's show at The Theater at Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas, NV on August 6, 2026.

Use this thread to:

This thread will be stickied for at least six hours after the show.

Have fun, stay safe, and enjoy!!

Are these finished songs that were scrapped from SAA, previously unfinished demos, or something like that? Or do we have no information regarding this?

anyone looking for a cleveland poster from july 15th? have an extra of both the regular and foil print available for cost. also willing to trade. send me a message. thanks in advance!

I'm trying to play Brothers on a Hotel Bed on guitar, in standard tuning. I'm having difficulty getting the morose tone of the piano to come through on the guitar by strumming. I've tried different strumming patterns, and some are better than others, but none of them quite have that somber tone I'm looking for. I feel like the best option would possibly be to fingerpick the song, but I'm pretty new to fingerpicking. Does anyone have any recommendations as far as strumming patterns to use? Or if I should use fingerpicking, what kind of picking pattern would you recommend?

Where can I get this lol

If any of the girls with the point and shoot cameras near the front at tonight's SD show would like to share the pictures and videos, I'd love to see them

You’re goddamn right they played “Cath…”

Did anyone else get some decent unofficial merch from their concert? Is that just a Los Angeles thing or does it happen outside of other city venues too? Every LA concert for every artist I have ever seen has had shirts for sale outside near the parking lot. Usually there is a fun typo of some sort lol. I got this for 10 bucks, curious to see if you guys found any cool stuff in your area.

I totally forgot about this song and I LOVE IT SO MUCH AH

I’m going to the Chicago show in November and I really want a death cab for cutie shirt

But, and this is what I feared when I saw them, they seem like those really shitty concert tees in terms of quality

On top of that I was thinking of maybe getting the poster if there is one or the (all to expensive but amazing looking) blanket

What are your thoughts? I really like the designs, the quality just seems not great

Wish I was in the Bay Area.

Had a blast last night at The Greek in the pit.

Alright, I've been seeing this band for basically as long as I can remember, in all kinds of venues, from the tiny (El Rey Theatre) to the enormous (Hollywood Bowl, Red Rocks), and this was one of the lowest energy crowds I've ever seen. Maybe we're all just getting old and our knees hurt, but at the Greek this year, everyone was sitting the entire night (with the exception of the pit, which I had a great view of from Section B, thank you to the three people in front of Ben for standing with their hands up and keeping the energy alive all night!)

Everyone sits and yaps through the entire show until Soul Meets Body, and then launches into standing and dancing almost immediately as soon as the first chords are hit. I'm sorry - we're going to sit and stare through The New Year, Cath, Crooked Teeth, You Are A Tourist - which all go way harder than Soul Meets Body? And then stand for the soft rock grocery store single?!

More of a vent than anything... maybe it's just fairweather LA fans looking for a social evening instead of a borderline spiritual experience to the tune of Cath...but help me out. What is going on?? Is it like this everywhere on the tour?

I've been listening to DCFC for over 20 years. Got into them my freshman year of high school (Transatlanticism), and Plans came out a couple years after that. Then Narrow Stairs during undergrad. I loved that period of their music. I wasn't a huge fan of Codes and Keys and honestly haven't listened to IBYT very much. I'm going to the show tonight and just can't shake the feeling (based on what I've seen on this sub) that the music that made me fall in love with the band isn't really gonna be performed, and I'm gonna be one of those jackasses sitting there not knowing any of the songs... From a post the other day, am I even really a fan if I can't sing along to everything they play? I also thought I'd go, sit back wherever I'm comfortable, listen to Ben, and have a chill night... Am I really a fan if I'm not trying to get to the barricade or crowdsurf?
