I enjoyed this show very much as with Oshawa, however Alexander Keiths is a dirty man and has basically washed my brain with most memories from both shows.
I was really into this show, the beer really helps you get a groove on for sure! I love to read everyone's opinions on the night, but hate when someone basically says if you don't say something nice then don't say it. I am approaching 50 shows and I thought this showed rocked hard, I sang along with every song last night and was mesmerized as usual! It was about the new songs for me, and of course would have been mighty pissed if Fiddler's wasn't played.
I am usually disappointed with the set list also, that's just a fact I've become used to, they aren't writing it for me though. When you've seen them many times you don't want to hear a song that you've heard 30 times, but I always enjoy it anyways. There are just other songs that you'd prefer to hear. I don't fully understand why they don't change it up as much, I'm sure the casual fan would enjoy Another midnight, luxury, pigeon camera, greasy jungle to just name a very few.
For the reasons I've discussed, that is why I chose to go to only two shows, because I'm just setting myself up for disappointment. My mentality used to be, I don't want to miss a show in case they play something I haven't heard yet, but I can't do it anymore because the odds are against it. I also don't understand why they dropped Luv(sic) & Last Night, that really pisses me off as they are basically my top two on the album!
Anyways, I'm a die hard for life, and can't wait to see them again soon! Mix it up a little more lads, your catalog is huge and you proved at all the phoenix shows that you can still rattle off all the songs like fined tuned machines, with the odd hiccup of course. Where the hell is No Threat, you killed that at the york!
Chris, if they come in the summer, leave your gear at home and get pissed drunk and just flow with the show man, don't even bring a still. Live for the moment, two hours of pure ecstasy is what I go for, even if I can't remember much the next day!
Sorry if you find this boring, or if it doesn't make much sense, but I am just pushing little buttons as thoughts enter my mind! Take care and long live the Hip, I am no longer sure if there is a master plan, but I hope there is!
