I gotta believe Let's Be Friends Again is a new song.  On listening again this morning, I dig the doo wop beat and backing vocals.  

holy shit that was fast!!! I want to wait for MPP and not listen, but I dont think I can

um...do you know where I could find Chicago 2008?

[highlight]Also, though I would have loved to have Dancefloors, Steam Engine, or War Begun, complaining would be like saying I only got 7 slices of bacon on my bacon sandwhich, instead of 8.

Awesome! Well said, and you made me laugh my ass off!

Also just made it through the intro/OBH and all I can say is WOWZA!!

"There's really little left to improve on if the Birmingham show was considered a "warm-up" for this weekend at Jazz Fest"

Thanks to everyone who posted set lists, etc.  Now, I really can't fucking wait for Merriweather!!  Thank the music gods that the boys are back on the road!!! :D :D :D

The intro was badass.  It was from the song called "Eminence Front" by The Who.  The lighting was awesome to go along with it.  I wish I had a floor seat because it was really bassy in the balcony so I couldn't hear what he said sometimes.  It was an amazing concert though, the first time I've seen them live and definitely not the last!

first show ive been to and i must say that the boys truly exceeded my expectations which were very high...this band is unreal, not much more i can say

[woodsy]

so....just got back from bham

sweetness in totality

did anyone notice how off the chain the end of it beats 4 you was??? killed it.  on every song actually.  the crowd was pretty great too which is crucial for me to rock fully.  

the only complaint i have is the b that sat in front of me.  when jim came on with phjb in the beginning i stood up and cheered and pulled out my camera.  it being 4/20 and all....i wasnt super coordinated so i dribbled a little brew on some girls shoulder in front of me.  call it punishment if you will for not paying her respects, but even so, i forgave her and apologized profusely and told her i was going to get her napkins...still though, she wasn't a happy camper.  

it's okay though...i whooooed extra loud in her ear during wordless chorus and screamed they ran so hard i'm surprised her head didn't explode.  

freaking awesome show!!!!  you could tell the guys were stoked to be back seeing as how they couldnt stop smiling.  i think they were really amped by the crowd too!  

can't wait to see you guys in atl and chucktown!
