There is no way in hell the Riv is 3,500 capacity. It's the same size as 9:30.


2,500

The Riv is definitely 2500 folks…mostly standing. Very few seats except maybe the balcony.

Some interesting surprises tonight: Le Pastie de la Bourgeoisie, A Century of Fakers, Lazy Line Painter Jane, The Blues are Still Blue….and then of course stuff like The Wrong Girl, the Model, Piazza New York Catcher, I'm a Cuckoo…newer stuff like The Power of Three, Perfect Couples, The Party Line, Nobody's Empire. Sukie, Boy With the Arab Strap, Sleep the Clock Around.

Sadly no songs from IYFS, Write About Love, or Tigermilk.

Stuart was losing his voice and I think they cut the set short a couple songs…it seemed odd that they performed nothing from it. They do have a string section but last night they felt under-utilized.

so looks like they are really doing a wide variety of songs on this tour
Chicago is like the only date that didn't get something off of IYFS

seems like every night you get 1-2 off IYFS, Tigermilk and at least 2 of the EP's from that era

So I'll take 4-6 songs from the golden era and 5 from the new one and be very content


Also, I keep bitching about their output after This Is Just a Modern Rock Song

But I do really like this song I want the world to stop
wasn't released as single

Fantastic song, and the live version is better than the studio. Lots of fun to dance to.

I'm going to say…No you don't need to
I'm liking the prospect of this not selling out

as I'm really tiring of all these (over)sold out shows
get off my lawn!

Belle and Sebastian co-founder and former member Stuart David (now of Looper) has shared "Paper Boat", a previously unreleased B&S song written around the same time as 1998's The Boy With the Arab Strap. The song is accompanied by a video directed by longtime B&S collaborator and Looper member Karn David, featuring footage of Stuart Murdoch and the since-departed Isobel Campbell on vacation in Aberdeenshire, Scotland in 1998


though it wasn't released, it was on the 'black sessions' which was often 'traded' back in the days people traded cassettes of live shows

I was really underwhelmed by Paper Boat. No wonder they never want to play it.
