Wow... great show, awesome energy from the band. Gord had a few great rants, best version of 100th meridian I've ever heard. Setlist, in no order other than opener and closer...

What a damn awesome show. Played a few of my favorite gems...Springtime, Wheat Kings, Silver Jet. Forgot (again) to bring a pen and note the setlist.
Simply amazing versions of 100th, Poets. Gord suggested that Paul start us off on Wheat Kings...something to do with the fact that Gord forgot how to begin.
Silver Jet had this awesome, explosive end where the band just stops playing and Gord just eyes the crowd.
Saw about a half a dozen or so video cameras on tripods, one or two mics. One of which was right in front of me in row 10 left center at about 8'-9' up. Should be a great recording if its made available to us.
One of the best I've seen in a few years.
Can't wait for New Year! (hopefully!)

This was my 10th show and it was by far the most entertaing show I have attended, It also helped being in the 4th row. I was surprised that they played You're everywhere first, especially seeing Robby going to slide guitar. I assumed they were going to play Vaccination Scar. First time hearing Membership good intro about a river. like the the previous post 100th was best I have ever heard. I hope for those who were taping the show that they will make it availble to everyone.
I beileve there were no songs from DFN Music at Work or Road Apples. That did not deter from the setlist which I thought was great.
Now the only question is should I make the trip from Buffalo to Albany in one night and then work the next morning.

Gord was awsome. He was ranting and dancing all night. This was my 8th show and have only been close enough to see Gords freaks once at the 9:30 club in DC, but we had 2nd row balcony and those are killer seats. We were able to see his eyes and how comanding and strange he really is. 100th was one of the best things I have ever seen live from any band. Gord totally forgetting how to start Wheat was funny also. He'd head to the mic then go back to Paul and then go to the mic and back to Paul again. Remembering lyrics were not his strong point for this show. Seen around 6-7 peolpe taping so hope they all turn out good and circulate. SEE THIS BAND LIVE
Go Sabres....damn.......Amerks

Really enjoyed the show. Might have created a convert to the hip? Brought a friend along who enjoys live shows, he never really knew much about the band( though I've talked about them as long as I've known him). He was quite impressed at the energy, musicianship and lighting(even). Nice place for a show, had some great seats in the loge section! A tad tired this a.m. after the drive home. Hope to hear it again, soon!

Well this was show #48 or 49 for me (I'll have to check).... this one stood out from many over the last few years.....for a few reasons.
We ended up front row which always helps... right in front of Paul....
This building has had major upgrades since the last time I was there and the sound was amazing. We sat in the balcony for Sam Roberts and they sounded awesome.
You're Everywhere - which is one of my fav's right now to start the show off was just what I needed.... they looked rested and ready to rock! In short...the first 10 songs for me were just STELLAR... in presentation, energy and the order chosen.... Fireworks was perfect for me as a washroom break and then back out for the final 10 songs which were full of rants, smiles and one hell of a 100th Meridian...
Gord D is much more confident and loose with his guitar in hand now... bouncing and kicking while playing and delivering the songs... the one stand-out of course for those Phantam Power fans... was none other than MEMBERSHIP.... wow... the vocals and music reminded me of that tour so much... "bring on the butterscotch river overspilling its banks"
Thanks for nailing that one & the rest of the show guys! It was worth the drive from Toronto!
---------> From the front row - We were first out the side door and walked around the bus and there was Bobby just coming out the door and ... we gave him the "great-show-bobby" and he gave us the "arm-up & nod" as he entered the bus and we "h e a d e d for h o m e"

INCREDIBLE SHOW!
Started by meeting Bob and Fran in the lobby...got to our seats a little later only to find that they were sitting directly in front of us. Great meeting you guys! Onto the show. You're Everywhere was a big surprise to open. When Gord started into Fully you could tell he was really into it. It was like he was dancing on air. I knew then we were in for an amazing show. Highlights for me were the Everywhere/Fully/Poets/Gus opening (the place was electric!), Meridian (great rant!) and Blow was one of best versions, I've ever heard! After the response to playing Nashville, Gord says "maybe it can be Nashville every night". Great venue, great people and The Band!

Downie walked up to Paul after a minute - then came back to the mic and said - "I had to go ask Paul for the first word"
Then Gord started the song.
Also, during NOIS I thought there would be no break/jam because he started up with the "Pale as a light bulb hanging on a wire" then after this verse he started singing a different song for a minute or two - then he went right back to "hands in the river"
So he just broke the song in a different place.
