RIVER ROAD is so cool live and it makes me appreciate the studio version more. But I don't get why they didn't just go for it that way in the studio.

I can hear your love is still flat for me..

LEMME KNOW reached new heights when the power went out and the crowd kept chanting the chorus like it was a spanish ⚽️ match. It was glorious.

DIE FOR IT is only getting better. It's a total steambreathing experience of psychosexual exaltation.

The album just keeps getting better with more listening and the more we see these songs live. They're propulsive live. A lot more furious. I wish they could finally capture that In a record, but they did for moments here on the album that shocked me. They're getting closer!

Those Louisville set lists are very interesting. Some of it absolutely didn't work segue wise but the selection of songs and the openers like I THINK IM GOIN TO HELL and INTO THE WOODS worked masterfully as openers, especially to a crowd of die hard ready for it and wanting it.

A very very cool transition they could do with more energy and intensity as an opening twofer???
OUT IN THE OPEN > IF ALL ELSE FAILS new arrangement. They tried that on one of the Louisville nights in the middle of the show and it worked tastefully.

The performances of RIVER ROAD really are spectacular.
What a powerful new song.
I'm so excited I got tickets for Red Butte Gardens in August!!

In addition to Nashville to Kentucky, I was very surprised they skipped Welcome Home.

We had a great time in Louisville as well.  Even though we live close we really don't spend much time there because our families are from Cincinnati, so having an extended stay in Louisville is rare (maybe the only other times were for Forecastle).  The new thing we did this time which I really enjoyed was to check out the lock on the Ohio River which is just west of downtown.  It has a nice observation platform for nerds like me, and it also has a cool bridge you can drive or walk over that goes over the whole lock system to an island where they do maintenance on stuff like the huge doors for the locks.  We also went to the Falls of the Ohio, which is always a good time.

I sure hope this becomes a tradition, but my vote is to get away from Derby Week a bit further because everything (hotels and travel at least) is more expensive, and the marathon Saturday definitely had things tangled up a bit (and the hotel we were in was 100% sold out).  Best part is we only had to miss one day of work (Wednesday) which is awesome.

Thanks again to the band for putting their shows up on Nugs.  We've been enjoying listening them very much, and just listened to night 5 today for the first time.  It's hard to pick a favorite show or moment, but Still Thinkin jumps out to me because it was super fun to hear live finally, and I have always wondered who that song is about (and what they think when they hear it and/or if they can even stand to listen to it).

Next show for us is in Newport for Betsy's birthday :beer: and I broke down and got Atlanta tickets for the last two shows of 2025 because why the hell not.  See y'all at the shows!

Agreed. Sunday and Wednesday were my favorite nights.

Glad you enjoyed Louisville. I moved here 13 years ago and I've always loved it here.
