Sufjan Plays Cincinnati Rooftop

The fine folks over at La Blogotheque somehow convinced Sufjan Stevens to perform atop Cincy's Memorial Hall immediately following completion of the city's MusicNOW festival a few short weeks ago. While at first, Suf attemps Seven Swans fave, 'He Woke Me Up Again', after a line or two he ends the song pleading with La Blogotheque to head back indoors because of the cold, windy weather. Eventually though, Sufjan gets coaxed into staying on the roof and performing a brilliant cover of The Innocence Mission's 'Lakes Of Canada'. Suf declared it 'the perfect song' during a visit to NPR three years back. Check out the full clip below.
