ELO, "Mr. Blue Sky." Perfect song for this band to play. I loved it.
Very good show. Opening with "The Tain" was cool, if a bit of a slow start to things. I enjoyed that, but didn't really get personally into the show until "July July" a little before halfway through. Until that point, most of what they'd done had been of the "faithful reproduction of album songs" variety, which isn't really what I go for in my live shows. But once they started innovating a bit with the double-time drums on the aforementioned track, everything started hitting on multiple cylinders. The run of songs from there to the end was fantastic, and the very funny Hendrix-aping with the guitars on the ground was a great way to end.
Sons and Daughters blew, though. Yikes.
