Don't have the setlist(Scared and Chagrin Falls were somewhat surprises, to me anyway). Train Kept a Rollin was the cover. And the Sadies are a band I need to check out.

Last Night I Dreamed and Lionized were also played.

Awesome set list! Scared, Long Time Running, Little Bones, Chagrin Falls~ They were digging deep. Very nice. Did the show sellout? About how many in attendance? We're getting pumped to catch them at the Vogue show in Indy, around 100-1200 max! Cheers

I don't know if the show sold out, but by the end there was a LOT of standing room. During the early part of the show, up in the balcony there were plenty of people. Lots left before the encore.

I'm not sure if it was because of a local or state-wide ban but there was no cloud of smoke like last time. It was nice to be able to breathe. I did see one big puff of smoke go up from the floor about 2 songs into the Hip's set, then a couple minutes later security was escorting some people out from that same location. Didn't see any other "evictions" like the last time.

I didn't see any Canadian flags, and there were some people around me when we were waiting to get in who were actual Americans. The last time I saw them at the Gothic, it seemed like I was the only one.

The "Tool of the Night" award goes to the people in the big black stretch SUV that pulled up just as the doors opened. Some people just need attention. Or a hug. Or a cookie.

The Sadies were really good. Their songs all seemed to be pretty short and there were some that were just instrumental. Still, I'll be checking in on them. When their set was over they helped a huge group load out their gear.

Best moment of the night, for me, was when the Hip started "Train Kept a Rollin" and almost no one around me knew the song. They need to get out more. It's one of my more favorite covers.

Gord did the "sleep on the mic stand" bit and the sit and spin when he woke up. He was in good form, but did break 2 mic stands and give them to people in the audience. The cowboy hat roadie(is that Billy Ray?) must have had to dig deep to get number 3 out.

Before they started Scared, Gord draped his towel on Rob's shoulder and rested his head.

Overall a much better show than last time they were here.
