NOIS-->Nautical--NOIS, was definatly awesome...

the show was amazing..front row is the only way to go...they told us we were the only ones allowed to be on the railing and to tell them if anyone else bothered us, and they took our coats for us and put them on the other side of the wall, to keep em safe i guess...

My buddy threw his sweater on stage and hit Gords legs, too bad gord prefered the girls xtra small, he might have got a mic stand out of it!!

I asked the security guy for a set list after the show and he said they were in cases and the crew guys couldnt get them out...anyone else heard any thing like this before?

I have a video of the jam in the middle of 100th, its about 10 1/2 minutes, and that just the jam, it was a long one...including some serious dancing, sleeping on the mic stand, singing Hotel California, and danincg with the girls sweater on...

AWESOME SHOW!!!!

I'll post some pics in the morning...can't wait for Hamilton tomorow night!!

Simply wow... great show... hilarious that Gord had on the chicks shirt inside out so that you could see the little white things dangling that it gets hung up with... haha... anyone know if she met Gord? Or did the security guy just get the shirt back for her? Gord lounging on the mic stand with his towel over his face was priceless too! Great show... great set list... great friends! Great night!!!!!

On another note... who was Stephanie? Gord dedicated a song to her.

Yeah I was hoping to hear Dire Wolf this tour but if they played it tonight, chances are they are not going to play it in the T-Dot.

I got a last minute ticket, and was pleased to have a pretty great seat. Section 114 had a good view, but the crowd was way too tame. They sat until half way thru main set, and I was more than a little embarassed. They were a little older than I am used to seeing at a hip show, but it WAS the season ticket holder area for the knights, so that may have contributed. And it was a Monday night too. However the crowd was extremely loud calling for an encore.

Definite highlight was NOIS-Naut.D.-NOIS but Flamenco was outstanding, as was DWD. The new material is amazing live. Two mic-stands destroyed tonight.

And yes, Lust for Life!!!!!

No voice left, what a night!

tapers are nice folks.

i want a giant screen on my bedroom ceiling showing jonny fay's every move.

new o -> nautical -> new o.... amazing. after the first line of nautical i still didn't believe it was happening.

gord d. said he was cold and asked for a sweater or a turtle neck or a cardigan... the girl right in front of me tossed her sweater up and gord wore it for the rest of the show. she got a mic stand for her troubles and actually got her sweater back at the end of the show... she told me to feel it and i did... it was a little damp.

great show!

Here's my photos from the front row. I was on the far right, infront of Robby, therefore there is lots of pictures of him...also notice Broach's Membership sign....wow! he really loves that song, lol

Most are kinda blurry, but a select few turned out awesome

enjoy

Giftshop
Dire Wolf!!!
Locked
Flamenco!!
LTR
Daddy!!

Wow. Now that's what I'm talking about. Excellent Set.

"Daddy" would almost singlehandedly make the show for me, but Dire Wolf and Flamenco too?

Lucky Londonites.
