Ha, interesting. We were at that show last night also. Absolutely loved Mumford & Sons. Absolutely hated every second of Marcus King.

I am really not a fan of extended electric guitar solos, and King featured a steady diet of those. And as much as I dislike them, my wife hates them far more. Likewise, neither of us were a fan of his voice either. We thought it was an odd fit with Mumford as an opener, but obviously many others had a completely opposite reaction. Different strokes . . .

Mumford / Marcus King in GR last night was awesome. In addition to loving older Mumford songs, the blues/rock/honkytonk guitar and voice of Marcus King (and band) were amazing* - By gvsublue September 23, 2026 at 09:11:58 AM
