Peace Love and Cheese

Hey all! Just came home and got to say, the show was really great tonight. I'm not much for writing up stuff about concerts, so I'll just post a set list so you all know what was played. Briel did get a few photos, but as usual, I forgot the camera. I have an excuse, I'm kinda sick with minor crud and I'm just really tired and feeling kinda icky. I didn't stick around after the gig cuz I wanted my jammies, lol.

Crap, that set list is kinda huge. Sorry! Not going to try to edit it, going to bed now.......

thanks Kat! Appreciate you getting that on! Great set as per the norm I see Feel better!

Anyone got any photo's or reports ?

Sorry, went to the concert, but have been run over by work and respiratory problems since then. No photos, but here's a small report. Lineup: Eric, Adam, Jordan (joined on a few songs by Matt Young and Ryan Raddatz -- Ken Beck was in the audience but did not perform).

Eric on acoustic guitar throughout.

1. Satan is Real -- Jordan on trumpet
segueing into
2. Indie Rockin' (Jordan offstage)
3. Lesson Learned (Jordan offstage)
4. Belfast -- Jordan on acoustic guitar, Springsteen and Dylan interpolated into bridge
5. Always Once Before It Takes -- Adam on glock(?), Jordan on acoustic guitar
6. 92 Mikes -- Jordan on banjo
7. How to Lose -- Jordan on banjo
8. Auctioneer -- Jordan on trumpet
9. Little Shoes -- Jordan on banjo, Ryan Raddatz on mandolin, Matt Young on stand-up bass
10. Plan Ahead -- Jordan on banjo, Ryan Raddatz on mandolin, Matt Young on stand-up bass
11. new song -- I Don't Need Saving? (I've realized I don't know the title and can't check without losing this post) -- Jordan on banjo, Ryan Raddatz on mandolin
12. Smile -- Jordan on banjo, Ryan Raddatz on mandolin
13. Afterthoughts -- Adam on harmonica, Jordan on banjo
14. the off-mike song -- I Like the Christian Life

The room was very full. There are a couple of tables in back, but the rows are benches like church pews, with little shelves built into the backs of the benches in front so patrons have a place to put drinks. Nice venue, good sound.

I wonder what song 11 is. Looks like Adam wrote "Satan, No!" on the set list. Did it sound familiar? Was it country, or bluegrass-y or more of a folk song?

watcher, that was the UM that was just up recently.

Sorry to be picky but you don't happen to know what Springsteen and Dylan songs were worked into the bridge on 'Belfast' do you?

I know the Dylan one was "Don't Think Twice It's Alright" and I think the Springsteen one was "I'm on Fire."

Ooh, I love "I'm on Fire"! UM 040907, if you want to give it a listen. And sorry about not knowing about Satan, No! I was brain dead when I made that post.

i love it when they work those songs into belfast, i'm on fire is great, is there a UM or a live recording of dont think twice ???

JJ

Oh man, 'Don't Think Twice'! I would love to hear the guys do that.

Heard them do it once, just hope there is a UM or a recording of it somewhere.

The Springsteen tease at Genghis was Born to Run..........

Oh, just kidding. "Born to Run," then.

Oh god the Dust Bowl pictures. I <3 Matt Young something fierce

Thanks for the photos, Briel. I kinda like Adam's longer hair. Goes with the no beard look. Jordan has enough beard for all three of them. I always get a kick out of seeing photos of them and who has a beard this time. That photo of Adam with the glock and Jordan in the background is really nice.

Thanks Briel, it's always nice to see some new pics.
