Stereogum just posted a video of Ben Gibbard covering Stars' "Your Ex-Lover is Dead" at a Solo show at the Hiro Ballroom in New York. Here's a link:

Ben Gibbard - Your Ex-Lover is Dead


There's a lot of crowd chatter in the background, but I've been waiting to hear this cover for a while now, so whatever.


And as they all grow older, the truth will be understood
Because we never turn out the way we thought we would

someone else posted this in the Death Cab for Cutie section but I'll repost it here. It's a link to a blog with a video of Silver Lining, Brand New Colony, and I Will Follow You Into the Dark...

Ben Gibbard @ The Hiro Ballroom

I have yet to find footage of the George Jones cover though =(

Sorry I don't really have time to upload the mp3, but if someone else wants to, that would be great.

I can't believe he played carolina. Isn't that time number two? I thought he said it was the first time he played it live in carolina during the acoustic tour.

Your Ex was meh, the song is more powerful the more layers it gets.

Yeah, I was surprised no one said anything about Carolina. It's just as rare a live song as those covers. What a cool event that would have been to attend.
