Daniel Johnston in Union Chapel

Check out exclusive 20 Watts photos of Daniel Johnston live from Union Chapel in London, UK. Sporting a dirty jersey, sweatshirt and grey sweatpants, Johnston was shaking for most of the concert. He played a mixture of older songs like “Casper the Friendly Ghost” and “Speeding Motorcycle,” along with a few selections from his latest album (Review here). The performance included three Beatles covers.
“We do a lot of Beatles covers,” commented Johnston, recalling his major coming-of-age influences. According to our source “he messed up the lyrics of ‘Revolution,’ but didn’t seem too phased.” Bouncing rapidly back in true Johnston fashion, he certainly mesmerized the audience. Returning for an encore after the crowds raging demand. Johnston finished the show with a performance of his song “True Love Will Find You in the End.”
