Decemberists leader Colin Meloy strips away the accordions, melodicas, and Stephen Colbert-trumping sidemen for tonight's solo acoustic performance. Befitting the man who literally wrote the book on the Replacements, Meloy's solo gigs are more freewheeling than his well-honed, full-band shows. On Kill Rock Stars' new compendium Colin Meloy Sings Live!, he picks songs from deep in his back catalog, ambles through Fleetwood Mac and Pink Floyd covers, and proves himself a master of that trickiest of live arts — onstage banter. And don't forget the tour-only EP of Sam Cooke covers.
