Bob and I saw Philly, NYC and Boston. We saw 48 songs total, 9 songs three times and 7 songs twice. (if I figured correctly) Here they are in no particular order:
3 0f 3
The Last Recluse
Morning Moon
Bobcageon (1 Accoustic 2 Electric)
Love Is A First
Now The Struggle Has A Name
Frozen In Your Tracks
Depression Suite
NOIS
While I love NOIS, I have heard it a lot and would have preferred to have heard something not as often played here. I am not crazy about The Last Recluse. I really like Love Is A First and think it comes off great live. Depression Suite is powerful and I think it speaks...at least to those who listen.
2 of 3
Family band
Grace Too
Nautical Disaster
In View
Courage
My Music @ Work (1 Accoustic 1 Electric)
Coffee Girl
Again, Courage is often heard...ready to see something else replace it...even though I do love it. Interesting to hear My Music at Work with 2 different sounds. Like Coffee Girl on the track but not as much live as I thought I would.

While I would have like Opiated I was thrilled with Thompson Girl. Really enjoying the accoustic part of the show. GD seems to be interacting more fully with the people, looking people in the eye, including them in his antics.
Philly Venue was very small. Good crowd...nice energy...we had the drunk guy on our side who security had to get rid of. Security did a really fine job of helping out people who were up front the whole time from getting tromped on by "intruders". Kudos!!
NYC Venue was real nice but a really varied crowd. We stayed towards the back and most of the energy was centralized up front. I wonder if they sold the remaining tickets at the TKTS booth for half price. Who were all those people? I also encountered that same group of stupidly drunk guys with the sunglasses WAY before show time and opted to stay well away from them.
BOSTON...you were the bomb! Great crowd (packed!) tons of energy. Course having other hipbase people there helped! Great to see everyone...including Chris, Mark, Dave and Steve. Not to mention the other 8 people who came in from Maine to join us for that show including our nephew who LOVES the Hip.
Can't wait till VT! Have fun in Toronto everyone. I am SO jealous!!! Peace,
Fran
