So, if I'm reading this right, the acoustic set featured An Inch An Hour and Courage... sexy.

Cheers,

An inch an hour accoustically? wow! i hope they pull that out in NYC or Boston!

"Fitted with a white handkerchief, which he regularly s'épongeait front, an intense and fully Downie inhabited by music immediately set the tone for the evening program."

I think I'm going to stop by an engravers on the way home and get this cut into a bracelet or a tombstone or something.

(the funny thing is, I can totally picture Downie, fitted with a white handkerchief and fully inhabited by music, s'epongeait son front.)

Captivating trousers and a juicy NOIS -- sounds like a great show.

I remember when Day for Night came out. I lined up outside of A&A Records(long since has been replaced by Music World & HMV) to get my copy. They opened but we were informed that the CD copies had not come in yet. Anyways I bought the cassette. Listened to it and remembering how much of an awesome song An Ince an Hour was. I would love to hear that in St. John's, and accoustically.... even crazier!

I don't have the complete set list but I was there... first row (actually these are tables).



Great show.

Do you mean that there were actual tables there?
And what were the acoustic songs?

[quebechipfan]

The venue is more of a theater; at the front you are sitting at tables.



The acoustic part was "Inch an hour", "Courage", and I think a new song from the latest album.

From the top of my head, they played (not in order): Blow at high dough, New Orleans, Pigeon Camera, Courage, Grace too, Thugs, Inch an hour, Scared, Gift shop, Ahead by a century, Don't wake daddy, Poets, Fireworks, Music at work, Yer not the ocean, and probably 4 or 5 more from the newest album (haven't heard it yet, sorry!).

Here's part of the Courage acoustic version (my cam doesn't allow more than 3 minutes filming...)

I think the other acoustic song might have been "Scared".
