A few more thoughts on this show.
Springtime - absolutely mammoth version of this song!
Fully - as gsmacleod said - this song slides perfectly into the second slot on any setlist.
Giftshop - the daredevil intro is hilarious, I wonder if Gord forgot what song was next up
Grace - hard to really say anything about this song live that hasn't been said time and time again
Butts - I don't think I've heard this on many sets, it sounds a bit sped up at the beginning which has a cool effect, I feel as though my headphones don't do justice to the jam at the end
Opiated - incredible
700ft - Love hearing Paul's backing vocals on this one
Flamenco - an almost perfect version of this song, however if I could have Kate on backing vocals on every live version of this song that would be my preference
100th - with this being on of the most frequently played live songs in their repertoire, they must love playing it. Sure sounds like there were lots of different lyrics for Poets Gord was refining.
Daddy - "the best song you can sing from a friend to a friend"
Courage - Gord ripping on the guys for pushing the girls from the front of the stage
ABAC - solid as always
NOIS - Wish the band would have continued with the extended versions of this song into the 2000's - really kept the song fresh
Locked - a dark and brooding version!!!
Wherewithal - might be one of the hardest hitting songs from this show
Put it off - I think I mentioned this above, but I don't recall seeing many (if any other shows) where this was the closer of a main set. "I played the downward spiral, by Nine Inch Nails on the day that you were born." I wish I could have heard them perform this one live!
Nautical - I don't think I've ever heard a version of this song that wasn't awesome
Little Bones - never a bad song to close
