Holy frig! I'm exhausted just looking at the last six songs. That must have been a sonic attack of biblical proportions.19. Fully Completely

Blow, Meridan and NOIS are usually standards at any Hip show. I can't remember any show where all 3 songs did not get on the set list. However, I haven't been to a lot of shows.trevor wrote:Blow, 100th and NOIS all in a row?

There have been lots of shows where they don't play those three. NOIS is usually in the set these days but the key here is that they played those three high octane songs, BACK TO BACK! That's what I was commenting on!ToastyB wrote:Blow, Meridan and NOIS are usually standards at any Hip show. I can't remember any show where all 3 songs did not get on the set list.

And you are correct Sir! The last three songs were perhaps the hardest I have ever seen them rock. I think it's Steve Berlin that gets them that pumped up. I hope the band decides to work with him on the next album.

Pics from Portland and Seattle. Just from two PnS elphs, but if you don't get bored by Portland, there are some good Seattle pics.

"I don't know what to believe"- pan left. Yep. That handsome feller in the white shirt is none other than yours truly. Yes Sir, that's me thinking to myself "I really enjoy flags and I should probably go up thank them boys for being so considerate."
