Postal Service Tour Recap
typical setlist for 2003 Postal Service tour: 1) The District Sleeps Alone Tonight 2) We Will Become Silhouettes 3) Sleeping In 4) Nothing Better 5) Recycled Air 6) Clark Gable 7) This Place is a Prison 8) There's Never Enough Time 9) Brand New Colony 10) Such Great Heights 11) National Anthem 12) Against All Odds (Phil Collins cover)	On the first (and so far only) tour by the Postal Service, the line-up was Jimmy Tamborello on laptop and keyboards, Ben Gibbard on vocals, guitar, keyboard, and drums, and Jenny Lewis on additional vocals, keyboard, guitar, percussion. For the setlist, they typically played the entirety of Give Up (in a different order than the album), threw in the b-side "There's Never Enough Time", and encored with a cover of Phil Collins' "Against All Odds". I'm pretty sure Jenny Lewis was present for all shows, taking over the parts Jen Wood sang on the album. One known exception was the 8/8/03 Benicassim Festival in Spain (see below), during which Jenny was busy with her band Rilo Kiley performing in Texas. This gigography does not include any private gigs at United States Postal Service events that may or may not have happened, agreed to by the band as part of the settlement that allowed them to continue using their name.
