It was just... wow. The whole bit where they were just throwing out bits of covers was like being in someone's living room with a bunch of acquaintances and watching some friends kick out some jams. I think James could have gone on all night.

I took TONS of photos, so I'll have to sort through them. I also recorded Dracula's Bride on my phone, and if I can figure out how to get it onto my computer then I'll share it.

[Acrobat]

Oh my God, I'm exhausted. That was amazing. Formica's husband wrote down the entire setlist, and it was drifting towards 30 songs or so. I'll wait for her to post the whole thing; Jimmy didn't play anything we haven't heard before as far as solo and Ours stuff, but some of the coolest parts of the night involved covers. We got Ben, We Are the Champions(!), Bohemian Rhapsody, Wicked Game(!), and a Beach Boys song I didn't know. A fan named Jesse got up and sang during Meet Me In the Tower, and he did an awesome job. I think Formica took some video at some point? I'm not sure; I forgot to even ask her because my brain was scrambled with all the awesomeness (which included her taking yet another photo with me and Jimmy. Thanks, Formica!) once the show was over. I've heard Bleed and Mystery live. My life is complete.

When I went to say hello to Static afterwards, the first words out of his mouth were, "Are you gonna make me blush again?" BWAH. He's never going to live that one down.

[SarahBeth]

OMFG.

What an epic, epic setlist.

Erin, thank you SO MUCH for calling me during Mystery, Ran Away, Lost, MMIT and Wicked Game. And I don't CARE it was late for the last two. IT WAS WICKED GAME.

I'm so glad you guys had an amazing time --- PICTURES. Can't wait to see PICTURES. E, I'll call you tonight to get the full recap.

[Formica Linoleum]

OMFG.

What an epic, epic setlist.

This is true. I never thought I would EVER see My Friend Bill live. Pure awesomeness. If only I had a decent recording device of some kind. I hope someone there recorded the whole thing it was way too incredible.

He played it at Maxwells. I had no idea what it was, but I liked it.

And I thought THAT setlist was amazing. This one is just.....insane. In the best way possible.

I hope to GOD someone recorded the entire show because I kinda want it.

So glad you guys had a great time!

[Formica Linoleum]

Pictures.....











I swear, there was this one moment where Jimmy was laughing the hardest I've ever seen him laugh. It was so great....




It was so dark and dusty, a lot of them didn't come out well.

[SarahBeth]

YAY SMILEY JIMMY!

Formica, I have to admit, I may or may not have been stalking this thread all day to see if you'd put the pictures up or not.

The pictures are great, thank you so much. I love the first one and the way that Static is looking at him. Although, the 2nd to last one is my favorite. I <3 smiley Jimmy so much.

[Formica Linoleum]

Here's another goody for you SarahBeth....


Lost


My Friend Bill



Meet Me in the Tower

[SarahBeth]

Here's another goody for you SarahBeth....

I fucking love you right now. Erin called me during this but I was dying for the video.

So thank you.

ETA: It looks like that user is uploading most of the show from last night - there's a bunch on his channel.

Yeah, I was hoping he'd be there. I usually see him, but I didn't so I wasn't sure. He was just on the opposite side of the bar

[SarahBeth]

I was hoping so too. Erin was kind enough to call me a bunch so I could listen in, but it really sounds like it was an amazing show. I'm so glad for you guys.

I'm going to have to stalk Allistar's channel for the next day or so and hopefully the rest of the vids will turn up. There's some I really want.

[Acrobat]

Holy shit, he's almost smiling!
