[review]

I'm trying to remember all the songs they played. I should've picked up a setlist, but I was too worried about getting a ride back to Columbia.

I know they played Always, August, and Small Figure in a Vast Expanse, in addition to the usual (I'm almost certain on these), Execution of all Things, Capturing Moods, My Slumbering Heart, Hail to Whatever..., With Arms Outstretched, Science vs Romance, Wires and Waves, A Better Son/Daughter, Paint's Peeling, Three Hopeful Thoughts, the Good That Won't Come Out, Room 8 (with M. Ward taking Jenny's guitar while she did just vocals), and Spectacular Views (EOAT).

They also played a bit of the Frug before the encore, and then admitting that the dummer didn't know it, and then they played Pictures of Sucess. Oh, and when testing the level on the keyboard Blake played and sang a bit of Sword. I'd be disappointed that they didn't play It's a Hit or Jenny You're Barely alive if I wasn't sure they'd play them when the new album comes out and they'll probably never play some of these songs again.

But yeah, it was a fantastic show
