The War on Drugs

[No spoken words]

My new music consumption has taken a nose dive the last 12 months or so, but of everything I've heard this year, it's easily my favorite.

Burning has been played 20 times on my work computer. It's my calming drug after he kids go home.



I can stop any time.



I'm beyond excited to see them twice during the first week of October.

When I first heard it, it sounded like Bob Dylan replaced Robert Smith in The Cure.

[martha]

You stop. You stop now.

 

[purpleoscar]

You stop. You stop now.

I liked it. It was a different mashup than I expected.

 

[martha]

Not the Cure. No.

 

[martha]

This is nice. It's old, but it's nice.

Not the Cure. No.

 

[bono_212]

Not the Cure. No.

Robert Smith's coming to get you, Barbara.

 

[Imperor]

Holy dumb fuck, what a god damn show.

I need an mp3 of Tangled Up in Blue. My current favorite band covering my favorite Dylan song? Yes, please.

I can't wait for tomorrow night in Pomona.

 

[cobl04]

A beer commercial version of Tangled Up in Blue.

 

[martha]

Fuck that guy.

 

[bono_212]

He apologized very sincerely :-(

Edit: Oh, just saw his most recent comments.

 

[martha]

Fuck that guy.

[Imperor]

They played that "Tangled Up in Blue" cover Sunday night and I totally lost it.

 

[martha]

Oh fuck. If he does that tomorrow night, my shit will be lost.

 

[martha]

Yeah. Tangled Up in Blue sounded fucking amazing tonight.


And as Adam was leaving the stage, he took the setlist off the floor of the stage and handed it to me. I didn't ask him for it; I was just smiling at him, like I had been during the entire set. I was happy.

That would have been a cool cover to hear. We got Mind Games in Seattle when I saw him earlier this year.

 

[martha]

He did Mind Games here in April, too.

 

[bono_212]

Does it feel like a disproportionate amount of people on this board get setlists from shows they go to? Like, it seems as though every time one of you go to a show, you come home with the setlist. I'm not even surprised to hear about it anymore. And yet, there are thousands of other people at those shows. Odds dictate that we shouldn't all have our own setlists sitting at home, but I swear each and every one of you has mentioned getting a setlist at one show or another.


All that said, I don't think I have one.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

neither do I

 

[mikal]

I just get my set lists online and print them out afterwards.

I've got a shitload but get absolutely no use out of them. Dunno where I'd even begin.

 

[martha]

This was my first one. I'm not really into them, but this one's nice because Adam wanted me to have it.

 

[corianderstem]

I don't have any setlists, but walking out of a U2 Vertigo show, I did swipe a piece of paper from the wall that had the list of times (doors open / opening act / U2). I don't think I still have it (although I still have COBL confetti!).

 

[No spoken words]

I've gotten one setlist in my life, it was after the Catherine Wheel's penultimate show, ever. I lost it, though.

JUST LIKE I LOST MY MIND

 

[BoMac]

I have a few Arcade Fire setlists (to no one's surprise).

I just get my set lists online and print them out afterwards.
