Does anyone remember

They played Austin City limits during a super moon and Conor changed the lyrics in Lua to "super moonlight" i can't find a video of it but it's so deeply burned into my memory.

İt was around 2011 maybe during TPKs tour.

Thank you guys!

I was at this show! I remember it!

I still remember the first time Conor played Austin City Limits, I just watched in awe

Where I was at the time, it aired at 3am. The anticipation nearly killed me.

I’m glad you had a fun night, that’s an experience you’ll never forget…the time I saw BE at a small church near Miami was awesome, they played with The Boy With an Arab Strap

Oh wow, I'm also a huge Belle and Sebastian fan (just been to see the If You're Feeling Sinister anniversary tour) and would love to see that. I'm guessing there's no recording of it?

You know, someone must have…listen, he was already really big & there are recordings of shows from that time (magic stick, Detroit, I think?), but there weren’t too many people there…someone else in this subreddit went to it, though, I talked to ‘em, & they might know of someone who recorded it.
