rumor has it he's touring again in late summer /fall so hopefully you can catch him then...and hopefully he'll play DC..even though i doubt it.

He never plays DC! (Not since 2001).
 
 I'll be making my semi-annual schlep up to Baltimore to see him, though. His set lists so far on this tour have been a nice mix of April, covers, and RHP classics. His voice is completely transporting live and he's great at insulting hecklers.

I wonder what the turnout will be like.  I believe his last show in annapolis sold out.

just read this about last nights show in pittsburgh...
 
 Just to let everyone know the Pittsburgh Diesel Show was rescheduled for 8/20/08.  Due to Illness.  I had class and work during the afternoon.  A fellow Pittsburgher and Koz fan, as I was about to head to the Southside, said that the show had been cancelled due to illness.  So I'll look forward to see him in August.

Damn damn damn...I am so bummed I missed this show. How was it? Anyone have a setlist or idea of what was (mostly) played?
Title: Re: mark kozelek roll call?
Post by: bellenseb on June 19, 2008, 01:39:00 pm
Setlist was:
 
 Trucker's Atlas
 Tiny Cities Made of Ashes
 Heron Blue
 Gentle Moon
 Lucky Men
 River
 Summer Dress
 Lost Verses
 Tonight In Bilbao
 Blue Orchids
 Carry Me Ohio
 Duk Koo Kim
 --
 Find Me, Ruben Olivares
 Glenn Tipton
 Katy Song
 --
 Four Fingered Fisherman
 Moorestown
 
 Nice show, Mark seemed in good spirits, about the normal amount of crowd-ribbing ("I've got a much more important show tomorrow night...").
 
 His playing is so all-enveloping and hypnotic that I almost forgive him for playing the same fingerpicked arrangement for almost every song...
