On July 4, 2010, The Walkmen performed a captivating live set featuring "Woe is Me" at a unique venue in Codfish Hollow Barn during their "Barnstormer" tour. By this time, the band had just released their critically acclaimed album *Lisbon* in 2010, marking a refreshing evolution in their sound. *Lisbon* diverged from their earlier, more frenetic styles, embracing a softer, more contemplative vibe that resonated well with fans and critics alike. This live recording not only showcases their deepening artistry but also the intimate setting of the barn venue, enhancing the experience for the audience. Interestingly, The Walkmen were known for their energetic live performances, and the July 4 show epitomizes their knack for connecting with fans on a personal level—making you feel as though you were part of something truly special that day. Plus, the coincidence of Independence Day adds a layer of festivity, don’t you think?
