What do you guys expect Jim to play at the orchestra show next week? He said "new music, a few covers, and a few chart-topping hits" on instagram, so I imagine it'll be something like

State of the Art
A New Life
Here in Spirit
We Ain't Gettin' Any Younger
I Just Wasn't Made for These Times
The Order of Nature (the new piece)
Eternally Even

whatever it is, I'm super stoked to see it go down!!! Jim (and MMJ) has put some really cool string parts into his music, I can't imagine how awesome it'll be to have a full symphony orchestra backing him.

That article indicates that theremay be some sort of official after-show kind of thing going on.  Maybe i read it wrong.  Sounds intriguing though.

1. Walking in the Snow   
2. Here in Spirit   (EE)
3. The Human Touch [Charles Reuben]   
4. In Demand   
5. Back to the End of the World   
6. Who am I? [Leonard Bernstein]   
7. Over and Over (Unreleased Original)   
8. Set it to Song   
9. Same Old Lie   (EE)

I think Over and Over is a new song but what about track 1, 4, 5 and 8?   Are those new?
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

It looks like the took the recording of the show from Funk-It Blog off of Soundcloud. Does anybody have any idea when they will be releasing the audio and dvd they mentioned? I thought every song was fantastic and cant wait to listen to it again.
