I just cruised back from the show. I rode and drove a total of about eight
hours to do it. I'm not sure if I have any more of these little trips left
in me.
Anyhow, the show was great. The setlist was the same as it has been
recently. I loved how the new songs came off live. They all sounded
excellent.
My Bridges Burn is a powerful live tune. The oldies were played
great as usual. I like that they're playing
In The Clouds in Drop D tuning.
The Warfield crowd was really rocking and the place was absolutely packed on
the various levels of the lower floor and bar areas. The balcony seating
appeared to be mostly full as well. The band seemed to enjoy the audience
response quite a bit.
The bad news is Ian appeared to have fallen and injured his knee just prior
to
Love Removal Machine. He spoke of it to the crowd and had to have a
stage tech walk the tambourine out to the stationary position he maintained
for
Love Removal Machine. When the show was over, a couple of guys helped him hobble off.
I hope it isn't serious, but it sure looked like it was hurting him a
helluva lot. I'm not sure what that will do for the remaining shows, but
I'll definitely keep my fingers crossed for the band and everyone who is
still planning on seeing them out on the road.

The show absolutely rocked! Don't remember the exact set list but the guys were
in top form. Ian was his usual high energy self, Billy was on and Matt was an
animal on the kit. Ian was doing some acrobatic move when he smashed the shit out
of his lower leg on the raised drum staging. He laid on the ground for the
remainder of the song then hobbled to his feet. Very anticlimactic ending to a
kick ass show.
