Friday Afternoon Videos: Gone For Good

Since the Austin City Limits Music Festival is this weekend, we thought we’d play a video from one of the bands were most excited to see live. To make it even more special, we thought we’d play a performance from an actual Austin City Limits series airing.

The band is The Shins, from Portland, Oregon. This show aired in 2004, when they were still touring supporting their CD Chutes Too Narrow. The song, “Gone For Good,” probably isn’t the best representation of their music – they actually sound like a country band here (which they’re not, of course). However, it’s a damn good song.

Their follow-up CD keeps being pushed back – now scheduled for release in early 2007. We’re impatiently patiently waiting.
