Is anyone planning on taping this show? I'm going to be there and I'm sure I'll want a copy afterwards.

Any Curb Your Enthusiasm fans out there?

Good one, Josh.
The easiest way to guarantee you'll end up with a recording is to do it yourself. If you don't know how, ask.
It doesn't cost a lot to get started - but like anything, the sky is the limit for how much you can spend.
Use photography as an analogy: You can get fine photos from a basic point and shoot digital camera. But to really capture the moment you need to spend more on better gear.

Here's another 'fuzzy' rundown (God, my short-term memory is getting bad) until the official list is posted on thehip.com:
1. Depression
2. View
3. Coffee
4. Twist
Moon, Good Life, NOIS
8. Honey
9. Tiger
10. Meridian
11. Queen
1. Bear - a
2. Wheat - a
3. Fireworks - a
4. Spring
Recluse, Courage, IOD, Yawning, Nautical, Struggle
11. Family B
12. Bones
1. Frozen
2. Blow
My breakdown: 8 N, 12 A, 2 B, 2 C (Tiger, Yawning), 1 D (Bear). Again, 12 A's - a bit much for me, but good for the 'casual' fan. Strangely, 9 repeats from last night, if you count the acoustic / regular switch of Fireworks and Courage. Yet again, a bit much imo. The crowd was more into it tonight v. night 1.
Surprisingly, I thought night 1 was a better performance, eventhough I enjoyed night 2 more. But that's just me.

What are the 12 A's? I remember seeing a post from you before that might have identified this but I can't find it.john cage wrote:

A night without Poets, BobC and Music has to be a nice change.
I can't remember the last time I saw a show without one of those being played - and it's usually 2 or more.

john cage wrote: Good, solid show, but imo, too many 'A' songs in this setlist - 12 of them (I've ranked all songs on albums from A - D or N for new, A being the hits, casual fan favorites, concert staples, B being tunes expected sometimes, C being rarities, might be played every so often, D being songs I didn't think had a chance - deep vault).
