Didn't realize tonight's show was the first show of the tour.

I'm guessing a greatest hits setlist.

So like 3 from The Earth is Not a Cold Dead Place, a couple from The Wilderness because it's their latest, then I don't really know...

Hoping for A Song for Our Fathers, So Long, Lonesome and Postcard from 1952.

How was it? Setlist looks pretty "hits" focused, but a good balance. I'm feeling kinda sad because I think I'm going to have to miss them when they come to Buffalo. Not sure if I can swing it with my schedule.

It was awesome!

They opened with A Song for Our Fathers, which was fantastic.

The extended breakdown section of The Only Moment We Were Alone was insane. Obviously, Your Hand in Mine was great and a crowd favorite.

But honestly, Remember Me as a Time of Day , Disintegration Anxiety and Colors in Space at the end were probably the highlights to me. Meticulously played with cool (and not over the top and cheesy) lighting effects.

Great venue and a rare great PHX crowd.

Memorable night.

saw these guys last month for the first time in 15 years, and haven't listened to them all that much in that time. played four from the new record and five of the old staples. it was like reconnecting with an old friend.
ah, copperplate, a font for the truly modern man.
