This show was the best show I have seen, ever. Fucking brill. I thought the Arcade Fire was the best show, but then I saw Clap Your Hands. Then that one was best. But now I saw this one, and it was bester. Fucking awesome. Does anyone have the setlist? Personally, I can't tell their songs apart from another, so I need the fucking setlist.
Broken Social Scene Roll Call!

it's all gonna break (maybe my favorite of the night)
Stars didn't show up as I had hoped. Oh well. Lisa Lobsinger sounded great on "Anthems".
And Feist was also really good. I like how she rocked out the Ron Sexsmith cover, "Secret Heart".
that show was amazing…goes down as one of my favorites of the year. songs off the new album sounded better live than they do on the album.
Originally posted by Efram:Just look at the tracklistings from the new album and YFIIP. Aside from some instrumental tracks, they pretty much played everything. Off the top of my head, only "Looks Just Like the Sun", and "Windsurfing Nation" were missing. I don't have Feel Good Lost, so I'm not sure what they played from that.
The obligatory setlist have anyone?
Oh, and btw, Roy Rogers is making a comeback!
I'd heard that in Boston J. Mascis got on stage with them and did a duelling guitar solo during "Almost Crimes."

That's neat if true; Almost Crimes sounds like a Dino Jr. song.

And is it just me, or did that show not feel like it was sold out? There seemed to be more breathing room compared to other sold out shows.

Originally posted by amnesiac:It was pretty packed up front, that's for sure. After people started to trail out to catch the Metro, go home so mommy and daddy wouldn't get mad for being out late on a school night, etc., it definitely got less crowded.

Something just didn't sit right with me after that show. And after a few restless nights I realized what it is: I hate it when people play air guitar on stage. It was increadibly annoying when the girl from Feist kept doing it. You're in a fucking band. You have real guitarists. Put the Bill and Ted away and put on a show, damnit.
did feist play with a full band? i saw her opening for british sea power last year, and she played solo with only an electric guitar. it was my first time ever hearing her and i thought she sounded great, so i bought her album but wasn't as blown away by it as i was her live performance. i'm planning on seeing her open for bright eyes in november, so i'm just wondering what her usual setup is. solo or w/ backup band?

I was really attracted to her, too.
And just so you know, she IS Feist. She isn't "the girl from Feist." Her name is Leslie Feist, and the band that was playing with her was just her backing band.
