“As we wrap up the Transatlanticism/Give Up Tour, I want you all to know that getting the chance to perform these two albums live has been one of the greatest thrills and honors of my entire life,” Gibbard said in a statement. . “On behalf of Death Cab for Cutie and The Postal Service. Thank you so much for coming out and singing along! We’ll see you all again somewhere down the road.”
