All Hitchcock songs except for covers of "Not Dark Yet" by Bob Dylan and "She Said, She Said" by the Beatles in the encore.  The Hitchcock stuff was probably 25% from his new one, a few Soft Boys songs, and the rest from his solo albums.

Also, Hitchcock said that if things work out as planned, they should be back in the area in March.  If that happens, I imagine it'd be a DC show.

No problem.  It was a fun show.  A better man would have given you the full set list, but I am not that man.  At least not at the moment.

favorite Soft Boys songs were Queen of Eyes and I Wanna Destroy You.
 
 Robyn told some very funny stories as usual. The one about Tysons Corner was quite entertaining. And he had some biting political commentary as well. And a little song. Something about
 "Everybody knows Dubya's stupid, but Rumsfeld is the Anti-Christ".
