I know i'm late jumping on the Daytrotter bandwagon (and The National for that matter)....but I downloaded about 20 of the sessions the other night and they are great. I just picked up The National - Boxer and Alligator recently and am REALLY enjoying them.

The National's Daytrotter Session featured them doing a cover of Pretty In Pink that is no longer available on the site as it has reached its download limit. Anyone have a copy that they would be willing to send this way????? It would be greatly appreciated - I NEED to hear this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

.....if you haven't checked out the Daytrotter site - you should. Lots of really great FREE live sessions (4 songs per band - including Grizzly Bear, Frog Eyes, The Annuals, Cold War Kids, Sondre Lerche, Low, Menomena, Mountain Goats, Young Galaxy, Sunset Rubdown, Of Montreal, Voxtrot, Bonnie Prince Billy, Tokyo Police Club etc etc etc)
In my world everyone is a pony,
and they all eat rainbows and pooh butterflies!

    that happened to me also with the last Mountain Goats track (anybody?). At one time they were able to put up another 1000 downloads (missed that boat too), so it may be worth your time to check back frequently to see if they do that with Pretty in Pink.

    the Bonnie Prince Billy tracks are awesome.
