[corianderstem]

Okay, I'm better now.

New songs are good.
Kickass song in the encore is good.

I'll just cry quietly about NLOTH, Breathe and UC being gone.

Holy crap word just came down that Prop 8 has been overturned!

This gets us to a 22-song setlist, if things go as we expect them to.

Who taped Miss Sarajevo and cut it off before the best part begins? (boo boo)

 

[JoRu]

MLK right now.

Wait a minute, what happened to the slower, acoustic song? They don't seem to have rehearsed it today.

I'll try to be there to start the thread in the morning. Nobody will be coming over till 3pm anyway, but I have to cook and do groceries in the morning so I won't be around too much. Then the majority of my friends will arrive after 6pm, so I have a little playing room in case there are updates. I can check in during the night to make a new thread if needed, but I won't be around much to post myself.

I'm still very much hoping for an audio feed!

Webcam shows dim lights, no bright colours. That's MLK All righty.

Wasn't that the ban on gay marriages in California?

 

[Dragonfave]

Gay Marriage stays in California., I think.

 

[trojanchick99]

Wait a minute now, I'm not following here. What does that mean really?

The Federal Court is saying that banning same sex marriage is unconstitutional so the State of California cannot have a constitutional amendment banning it. It's huge. The case will of course go up to the Supreme Court but still.

Yes
