Who's going? It'll be my first show of '07. I hope he plays Sons of Cain and Bottle of Buckie.

i'm going and hope the new songs are featured minimally. the new album was kind of a let down.

The new songs are really good live: at least the ones previewed last fall: sons of cain, who do you love, some beginners, army bound, CIA, etc.
It will be interesting to hear "Bomb" live: very different from the rest of the repetoire.

After seeing him at least 15 times prior, I'm hoping for alot of new songs.

The new album is a bit long and inconsistent, but there are some great tunes on it.

agreed - if he had cut down to 10 from 15 it would have been a cracker

My thoughts exactly. All his albums are too long for me. Cut 45 seconds of each song or something and get the albums running time to 38-42 mins. I know its picking nits but I think it was allmusic's reviewer that said the album could be awesome and he could do better.

I'll be there. I love the new album, so I'd be happy to hear a bunch of new songs.

It makes me sad that this is the same night as the Monopoli show at DC9. I already have a ticket for this so I'm going but would love to see the final Monopoli show.

Bottle of Buckie is such an annoying song!

I had tickets and was going to go, but ended up unable due to school and moneyz, so I sold them.

I hope the new songs sound better live. . the album was a huge disappointment to me. I think half of it is barely listenable.

I thought that was one of the better songs.
