Air

I may try to catch the end of their set if dinner doesn't run over before Air.

They are playing for free at Dupont Ollsens tomorrow at 1:30, but don't tell anybody. You can also see three live performance videos on their website.

very cool show.  too bad they didn't bring in any of the chick singers but they did very well just the same.
 
 killer second encore of femme d'argent.  killer j'ai dormi sous l'eau.  
 
 the mosquitos were quite a trip as well.  guess everyone now covers bizarre love triangle...

I thought it was a phenomenal show. Absolutely terrific setlist, and the sound was great. Nice selection of older and new material. My only (minor) complaint was no "Alone In Kyoto" which I think is one of the best songs off the new record. It seemed like they were really enjoying themselves too. I liked the Mosquitos a lot...very fun, good opening band. All in all, one of the better shows I've seen in a while, 90 minutes and I didn't feel like it was a ripoff. I'm so excited that I'll get to see them again at Coachella. I'm going to post the set list below, so in case you don't want to see it, just ignore and stop reading here.    If you do want to see it, scroll down...

Thanks for the reviews and set list. That is a bummer they didn't play "Alone in Kyoto". Hmm...
 Hey this is probably a question for for the FAQs area, but I thought the doors opened tonight at 9 pm (per tickets.com). Front page says 7:30 pm. I guess tickets.com is accustomed to Friday doors opening at 9.

"la femme d'argent" was fantastic.
