Nah, he's right. Hard to think of a bigger momentum killer in 2021/22 than Buckle Up will be.

Band members: Handwritten sets were on the inside of the 2000official boots . Those are easy to determine. The recent ones were revealed through interviews, etc.


10C member: The whole experience was documented in an issue of Deep or the monthly newsletter. I believe several songs were scratched by the band and played the next time they were in his hometown.

I believe the original show was 6-27-2012. The fan set may have become the encore. The scratched songs were Fatal and Otherside which were played in Boston 2013.

Fatal and Other Side.

And god bless him for it!

Listened to a few of the Gigaton songs, really impressed so far. Band sounds tight and Ed's voice sounds really good right now. The band is clearly excited to start playing these songs live.

DOTC would be a great choice to come out as a song following the first encore. I agree with the poster who said the rest of the band should also sing at the end of the song.

Except Mike.

Ed's vocal choices are encouraging in the clips I've seen. He's doing a much better job holding out the note.

The rest of the band sounds great!

perhaps not being able to play live music - or music with others - for an extended period of time has recalibrated a previously burnt out stone gossard.

He looked like he has having a great time in 2018 too. Don't mistake not running around in circles and pointing at 1,300 people to be unexcited.

he was super into it in 2018 yeah...and fuck pretty much every show i saw.

It was a really fun show. Band had great energy. A bit more Eddie rambling than usual but oddly much more cogent than usual. Festival show so short but they sounded really good. The dedications to Norm MacDonald (spoken) and Charlie Watts (tagging Waiting on a Friend to Wishlist) were really special, and then throwing in a tag of People Have the Power to Better Man was really cool. Alive had Purple Haze teased in the solo. The new songs all sounded great, and the vocal looping machine was really awesome in the tail end of Dance. Y’all will enjoy Ohana.

I just spit out my coffee

Yeah that got me good

I had a great time at the festival and would highly recommend going in future years. It is not huge so it is very manageable. The artists were nearly all very good to great. The other stuff got crowded also but not prohibitively so. In the artist gallery they had some artists stop by to talk about their artwork and play short solo sets. Very cool.

Over the weekend, I saw Reignwolf (very good), Patti Smith and Her Band (great), Avett Brothers (very good), Pearl Jam (amazing as always), Ron Artis II and the Truth (amazing set), Strand of Oaks (great), Black Joe Lewis and the Honeybears (great - and best closer of the weekend “we have one more…oh, we’re out of time, f$ck it, we’re done.”), Grouplove (boring), Remember Jones (meh), Billy Idol (surprisingly really fun), Ani DiFranco (boring), Tank and the Bangas (okay), Smashing Pumpkins (meh).

What was the setlist like?

I haven't seen them live in 2 decades... I can totally see them being in the "bland/boring" category now.

I’m still disappointed Billy Idol didn’t sit in with PJ.

The set list was pretty decent, and maybe our distance didn’t help, but Billy’s voice sounded shot, and the band was okay but we had seen so many great bands that it sort of took us out of that kind of mood. It felt like we spent the whole day in this great energy from some really cool shows and that last stretch I think we were kind of done, especially since Smashing Pumpkins, for all their great songs, just aren’t in that send you home on a high note terrain.

Setlist: The Colour of Love, Bullet With Butterfly Wings, Today, Crush, Drown, Quiet, CYR, Wytch, Solara, Eye, Ava Adore, Tonight Tonight, Stand Inside Your Love, Cherub Rock, Zero, Ramona, 1979, Disarm, Shame, United States

Correct me if I'm wrong but I remember Ed saying he let Steve Gleason do the setlist at Voodoo Fest in 2013.

Did Ed bring back a little distortion pedal ?? Corduoory intro sounds a bit more overdriven beyond busting a tube amp up a bit....

I liked Matt’s Corduroy count in. I’ve always preferred Jack’s intro and this version sounded akin to it.
