WHAAAAAT?!?!?!

I don't know for sure, but I saw a staff member walking around with what looked like a setlist - there were a bunch of numbered items and it looked like "45" was listed a bunch fo times, speced out.

Again, that's just what it looked like. couldn't read anything else on it besides 45.

I don't want to rain on any parades but if "45" was listed multiple times, it's a day sheet. It's kind of like a simple schedule for the day.

ah, okay. I wasn't getting my hopes up - that's just what it looked like.

Apparently Alex just told some people they are playing a show afterwards

On set

COOL!

This sounds brilliant!

Wow, that's awesome! I am so jealous that I'm not there! Thank you so much for the update, ral!

They really only played with a sucking track on 45 the first few times, the rest were all live....

Here is my video of "Here's looking at ya kid" In the process of uploading 45

My video of 45.

Shot from further back behind the main bar of the Stone Pony. This was take 5 of the 45's.

Btw for those wondering Ian was on stage the entire time and seems like what Brian stated earlier is correct about him being a full time touring member

It was a truly awesome show. More tomorrow...

The cameras were rolling durring every song tonight.... Except maybe HLAYK

Man, that was awesome. A lot of standing around, but once they got on stage they next 90 minutes flew by. I almost decided to just go home when I was driving there and saw someone posted that they were only letting the first 200 in. Not sure where I was number wise in line, but they didn't let many people in after me, that's for sure.

Awesome set...45 will be playing in my head first thing in the morning when I was up, no doubt.

Looking forward to a full show and hopefully some other new songs in Brooklyn next Wednesday.

That was so awesome. Seriously, that was such a special show. I thought I'd get a little worn out on 45, but I was as excited the last time they played it as I was the first. Brian was on top form, both vocally and comedically (seriously, that man is just too funny). Briefly met Alex L and even got interviewed for the video! I can't wait to see the final product and everything, but something tells me I'll do a good job of preserving the memories of this night regardless.
