  yeah i think the downtown mall has a noise ordinance thing.  So all the shows start like that.

The light show is going to be awful since virtually the entire show will take place during daylight.

Pics (on sunday) or it didn't happen.

Just back from the show.   I don't know it was a good show but they didn't play as much of their stuff as my friend and I thought they would.  I've got a shit load of videos so I'll have to go through to see how and what they played.

[wml7]

Holy shit I looked at the setlist and its the same thing they played lol from before.

I had a good time.  I thought it was wonderful up until heavy metal machine...  then I realized I had waay to much to drink and sat in the back with the sad kids.  Set the Controls was annoying and about 20 minutes too long, as expected.  Oh well, it's not like the are going to come out and play Siamese Dream from start to finish.  What were you expecting?  It was a nice mix of everything.  Eye sounded really grat.

At the Raleigh show last night, they played the same set again, but Billy came out topless for the encore and had his shirt around his neck like a scarf. I was in the front row, and when he sauntered by at the end, I ripped off my shirt and offered him a trade. He looked at me disgustingly and shook his head no with his mouth agape.
 
 Probably didn't help I was wearing a Zwan shirt.

I was trying to trade a cruddy shirt for a better shirt. Pulling one's self up by their fashionable bootstraps is what Julian's America is all about.

That's great.  Was he able to see that it was a Zwan shirt?  Dave Grohl traded shirts with a guy at the 930 show a while back.  I don't think he put it on, he didn't want to get ring worm.

Uncertain on what he make out of the shirt, but I was 5 feet from him all concert wearing it, so I'm betting he knew.
 
 RatBastard is who pulled off the Grohl trade. It was my inspiration for trying.

is anyone going to either tuesday or wednesday show that can get me a ticket on saturday (i'll be in chicago for the mbv show that day and don't know what my computer status will be). i'd prefer it be someone i already know .. since you know my ticket would be with you. and uhh, yeah, it would make the money transaction go smoother

I got mine thru the presale.  It's starting to seem like the Pumpkins are a house band.  They are here all the time now.  I wonder what the '20th Anniversary' shows will be.  At one point I think I heard they would play entire albums each night, but I dunno.
