The Postal Service delivered the goods for their first show in nine years. Celebrating the tenth anniversary and re-release of their platinum debut album Give Up, Ben Gibbard, Jimmy Tamborello, Jenny Lewis, and Laura Burhenn put together a sparkling sixteen song set with all the electronic bloops and bleeps in their right places. Opening the evening was electronic wizard Baths who kept commenting how crazy it was that the Postal Service was going to play after him. Check out the photos in the gallery above and the setlist and live video of “We Will Become Silhouettes” below, plus a new Q&A with Ben and Jimmy about the genesis of the project.
