wow...another fantastic night...the band dug deeper into their catalog & the old stuff especially sounded great, like they've been playing it every night for the past five years...thought the way things unfolded last night was brilliant as well, the crowd was pretty subdued & the intensity slowly increased as the show went on...highlights; "blue eyed soul" opener, nels completely losing his shit during "a shot in the arm", the "should've been in love"-"pick up the change" combo, especially after the stage banter before "jesus etc." (tweedy: "we're going to play a couple from our first album", looks around at band, "right?", nels: "no", tweedy: "oh, well, the first album most of you bought", crowd: "boo", tweedy: "why am i always shitting in the punch bowl?", after "jesus, etc.", tweedy: "you guys better sing every word"), also the entire second set was completely remarkable, again...they leave you thinking it can't get any better & then they come back & tear the roof off...so many great songs last night...here's the setlist.blue eyed soul

3 straight nights of heavy sky blue sky...I'm at a loss as to what I should expect tomorrow...
i don't think it's been heavy sky blue sky...they seem to be spreading things out pretty evenly...still the repeats have been consistent.
if tweedy is talking between songs as much as it sounds like he has been i'm glad i haven't attended these
Can you please send out a list of songs they haven't played yet? That shouldn't be too hard for you, since you've been to all 4 shows thus far!
