Setlist, in order:

01: Yer Not The Ocean
02: Twist My Arm
03: Grace, Too
04: Lake Fever (wanna be your stars of Muskoka...)
05: The Drop Off
06: Daredevil (12 minutes of awesome!)
07: Inevitability Of Death
08: Gift Shop
09: Last Of The Unplucked Gems (extended intro)
10: World Container
11: Family Band
12: Blow At High Dough
13: Wheat Kings
14: The Kids Don't Get It
15: Three Pistols
16: The Lonely End Of The Rink

Encore
17: In View
18: Ahead By A Century
19: My Music At Work

The balcony was for VIPs only.

The floor filled up slowly, and front row access was easy until about 8:45. The band took the stage around 9:20. Absolutely no issues getting in - minimal line (30 people) at 7:30. Only about 50 people inside when we got in. (Maybe 100... but it looked nearly empty.)

Lots of booze consumed, and we watched more than a few drunks get carried out. Post show there was a pretty good COPS-style take down, complete with pepper spray, (and some crying).

Post-show highlight of the night:
Girl walks up to police who have resisting arrest drunk in cuffs and asks, "Is there anything I can do to help? I've got a place for him to stay."

Cops: "So do we."

:lol:

If it weren't so bloody far from Toronto I would gladly go again tonight as it was a great show in a really cool venue.

If I was a little more saavy with my camera I would have a picture to post of the setlist but apparently that wasn't the case last night.

Nice show! Great time with the guys! I'll leave the details for everyone else.

Sarah: nice to meet you! Sorry I couldn't stay and chat but I was being hassled by a security guard for "no professional lenses" which was a first last night. Maybe next time!

Would have loved to hear IOD and 3 Pistols.

Yes. And it was. I checked the time this morning on my recording to be sure.

[edit]Oops.... it was Daredevil that featured 12 minutes of awesome...[/edit]

It didn't seem like 12 minutes but it was a great version of the song! Chris would know as he was taping and would have the numbers to refer to!

*EDIT: And look, he got a post in before I did! :(

It includes the jam intro sometimes referred to as Hiccups.

An instrumental Hiccups, or full on with lyrics? And in front of IOD? That's unique

Cheers,

no, there is something wrong here because they played an instrumental version of hiccups BEFORE daredevil (which is not on Chris's setlist by the way...)

Ditto. Been quite a few shows since Pistols was trotted out.
Have fun on night No. 2, lucky ones

My "12 minutes of awesome" was supposed to be beside DD, not IOD. I've corrected it (and the setlist) so it makes more sense now...
