The emusic popular tracks (though I'd put The Reasons before some others); "Left and Leaving" and "My Favorite Chords" from "Left and Leaving."
 
 Sad I can't go; they were excellent at the Black Cat awhile back.

This might have easily been the best show I saw last year.

Cool show will definitely have to spend more time with the Weakerthans ablums and someone else gets to DJ next time so I can bop around and have fun too...
 
  The New Amsterdams were ok, they had the sound but the songwriting was kinda nonexistent. Liked Raising the Fawn's better than average post punk, indie rock  and if I ever see their CDs used I might buy them otherwise...

The problem with the New Amsterdams is the vocalist. His delivery was flat and you couldn't understand what he was saying.

Holy hot fuck. What an amazing show last night! They were energetic, enagaging, tight...I just can't think of enough superlatives to use to describe the show. We're headed to Philly tonite for the show at TLA. Once is not enough....

It was a great show.
 
 Did anybody else notice that the levels overall seemed really low?  The volume was pretty far down, so it seemed to me.

Definitely an awesome, highly energetic and flawless set.  New songs sounded good too.
