Wish I could be there. It's going to be a good show.

Can someone who went to the show tonight either PM me or post what time it ends?
Just need to do some post-show planning for Monday.

Fucking great show! It's been ten long years since I last saw Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds in concert (at the 9:30 Club), and it was worth the wait. Of course, I'd rather not have waited so long. His 2001 tour (which I had a ticket to) was canceled because of 9/11, and I was out of town when he came back in 2002, I think. Anyway, it's been too long. That 1998 show was one of the best I've ever seen, and tonight's show didn't disappoint. I finally got to hear "Papa Won't Leave You, Henry" in concert, and that was a definite highlight for me. Been waiting 16 years for that. I love that song so fucking much that I want to marry it and have five ugly children with it. "The Mercy Seat," "Deanna," and a blistering "Stagger Lee" to close the night. Awesome.

i echo what has been said above… what a great show…
unbelievable set list.. unbelievable energy..for dc standards a great crowd.. too bad for the ringin in my right ear…guess i did not push my ear plug in enough..
cave just seemed like a man at the peak of his powers….
i'm also very glad he played papa won't leave you henry…
its also great when you see a live show and the new stuff is just as good as the classics! (and its so rare)

They've been ending every show this tour with it.
At least from the setlists I've read/recordings I've heard.
So people knew it was coming.

So tonight's set list was the same as Chicago's 9/29 set list.
Tonight's audience wasn't bad, but there's room for improvement. They gave up on the possibility of a second encore too quickly. From what I've read on the good_son mailing list, Montreal got a second encore just a few nights ago, so maybe Monday's audience can do better.

Tomorrow I'm hoping he does "More News From Nowhere", "God Is In The House", "The Ship Song". and "Let Love In". Hopefully!
Meh, I might go see the Kills instead though. Tonight ended up being a super late night.
Nope, didn't wear my fashion statement, but I *did* finally meet azaghal1981! Fucking FINALLY.

hmm..i thought i heard him reacting to someone shouting out a request before playing stagger lee but i guess i missed something
or maybe he was joking around like he was when he joked about playing ship song and went into some other song (get ready for love i think)..

The person shouting out the request most likely knew to expect the song. I was expecting it at least.
Awesome to finally meet you ixkpd-bk!
I'm betting the ridiculousness of that late night matched that of the show itself.

Neither are overrated. I'm sorry you don't enjoy their songs.

Both Chicago shows differed slightly from last night's setlist-wise. I just found 24-bit flac recordings of them if anyone's interested.
