The T Mobile connection came back and we three walked into the Atlantis at the totally rock and roll time of 6:20, as the opener was finishing their set. It was loud and the opener sucked. My daughter's first comment was "Can we please leave?"
But we didn't, and Nada Surf came on at 6:57pm. They're one of my favorites, and were reliably good. They did 17 songs, five of them new, and were done in 80 minutes. A totally truncated show.
Another boardie told me the late show (that was added after the original show sold out) lasted two hours and 24 songs.
How's that for some scheduling bullshit?
