I love the idea of Heart and Fire back-to-back at the end of a set. They belong there, even if it might cause the band to spontaneously combust.

4. Courage
5. Poets
6. Nautical Disaster
7. Locked in the Trunk of a Car
8. Bobcaygeon

12. Gus
13. At the Hundredth Meridian
14. Blow at High Dough
15. You Are Everywhere
16. Scared
17. Fire in the Hole
18. Heart of the Melt
First encore:
Goodnight Josephine

A Beautiful Thing
Stay
Emperor Penguin
Greasy Jungle
Yawning or Snarling
Fire in the Hole
