At the end of the year in 2007, Okkervil River released ‘Golden Opportunities Mixtape’, a free EP intended as a gift to fans. Called a ‘Must Have Download’ by Rolling Stone, the songs were recorded on the road throughout Europe and America during extensive touring for their album 'The Stage Names'. This year, the band continues that tradition in the sequel release ‘Golden Opportunities 2’, which both hearkens back to the original release and varies the formula.
‘Golden Opportunities 2’, comprising of 5 cover versions, is available to download from the Okkervil River website, in both MP3 and lossless formats.

'It is So Nice to Get Stoned' (by Ted Lucas)
'U.F.O.' (by Jim Sullivan)
'One Soul Less On Your Fiery List' (by David McComb)
'Plan D' (by Bill Fay)
