saw them tonight.

 

[dudeman]

just saw them here in pittsburgh on the 18th. feist was there, and they even threw in 'anthems for a 17 year old girl'. the show was awesome. just completely awesome. the band was in good spirits and fantastic form.
if you can see them, you owe it to yourself.

 

[impy13]

Seeing them Thursday. So good to know Feist is with them.

 

[zonelistener]

Feist wasn't with them last night...it was Amy Milan. She did "anthems..."

 

[XHendrix24]

Did they do "It's All Gonna Break"?

 

[impy13]

I'll take many a photo.

[dudeman]

Did they do "It's All Gonna Break"?

sure did. like 14 minutes of it.
fucking amazing.

 

[angelordevil]

I am cry...they a no coma hera.

 

[impy13]

I had the setlist saved in my phone but I deleted it by accident. Shucks. Anyhow it went something like this

KC Accidental
7/4
Fire Eye'd Boy
Cause = Time
..... then a bunch of other songs. I can't remember.

They closed with the extended "It's All Gonna Break." Midway through Kevin jumped into the crowd right in front of me and told this big, tattooed gangbanger looking prick with "vasquez" tattooed across his back to leave or stop starting shit with people (which he was).

Before "Anthems" they brought out Amy, which was a nice surprise. Looking at Lisa all night wasn't a bad thing by any means, but it was cool to have one of the three favorite girls of mine there. Feist was MIA, much to my dismay.

Amy sang "Anthems" and Feist's part in "Almost Crimes." Each time she started a "I told you we'd make it" she fell forward into the audience, and being in the third row I was fortunate enough to have her hand land in mine. So I held hands with Amy Millan for about five seconds. No big thing. She's not the prettiest thing around but I love her anyway. Easily one of the most fun people to watch on stage. She was great when I saw Stars last month, too. She also crowd surfed during "It's All Gonna Break" and went right over me, so there was much more Amy Millan-to-imp13's hands contact.


Fucking great show and great night. Do Make Say Think, the opener, are GREAT. I really want to pick up their album.
