Thanks CZ - terrific setlist! Wish I could have been there....
I anticipate night 2 will be equally epic!

That version of "Dying On The Vine" was FANTASTIC. Kraig on guitar and John sawing away on his violin.

It really brought back memories of when that song was a setlist staple, especially the great September 1998 First Ave.shows when Marc began playing the bass part before the video screen came up to reveal the band already onstage playing the song.

And I think last night was the first appearance of "The Baltimore Sun" since the 3 night
First Ave. run in December 2003?!

Forgot to mention, "Trouble" was dedicated to Joyce and Jerry.

looks awesome - Wish DOTV was a regular in the set. Gutted that they didn't play it in Liverpool a few years back, when they played it virtually every other UK show. Hopefully someone captured this show so we can hear what looks like a great set.

Impressed! And seeing the wide range of songs they play, it reminds me that the band still owe us a properly recorded and presented live album.

Nothing Left to Borrow was not played? Weird.

A live DVD of these two nights would do just fine as a release

Bonus DVD disc of the Yahoo Live webcast from a few years back for the deluxe edition, only available through the bands online store or through pledgemusic would top it off - I'll be happy to chip in to make it happen!
