He not only did SHUT US DOWN again (Yours Truly recorded the ENTIRE SONG TOO!! Will post it when I get home tomorrow afternoon.)...but...

BREE.....HE DID TURN IT ON!!!!!!!!!!! I recorded some of it, but no video on that one. My heart was beating 400000 miles a minute as I was afraid of getting caught. I did get some audio of it though.

The last song was SUD, so I said h#ll with it and recorded the whole thing.

GERALD AND BREE...wish you would have been in Houston with me!!!!!!!

:blob2: :blob2:

Hoping that Fort Worth will be awesome. See you tomorrow night #1LiddyBuckFan. :)

BTW, Kristin was there tonight...he didn't sign anything after the show, he got in the white SUV thing and left. He did wave at us. He did sign a couple of Rumours albums right after the show was over. Got that on video too.

Flying home tomorrow at 10:30AM. Will try to post stuff tomorrow before my FW show. I have some eh great pics and one AMAZING pic to post.

Oh and Cowgirl Hat was there. Some guy in front of me to my right wouldn't shut up during the ISA solo...I mean, it was a continous loop of "Lindsey, yeah...wooo...Lindsey!!!!! YEAHHH" over and over. Some guy in the 2nd row (Ledgie???) told him to sit the eff down. LOL

ETA: Just wanted to say...he did NOT do SYHA or BTLH...he ended with Turn It On then Shut Us Down. I did yell out Shut Us Down, but perhaps, that's the new ender. YAY...I prefer that over BTLH.

WHAT an unbelievable good choice. I think I'm gonna re-evaluate my financial position.

Why does he do these songs at shows that I don't go to? Now you know that I am going to have to go to New Orleans.;)

Why does he do these songs at shows that I don't go to?

Because he read that you called him a new Stevie Nicks because he didn't change the setlist every friggin' time he plays, then he saw that you were not able to go to the Texas shows, and thought: this is my chance for revenge. ;) :laugh: .

Argh...I was hoping he'd do a song from Out of the Cradle in Austin. Meh.

I wish he'd do some European dates! Awesome setlist! What other encores is he doing? Is Rodeo and SMAP still in?

I do belive that was me that said something like that, so Lindsey should be fairer to Pattie ;) AND w/ all due respect, I did get SYHA in Cupertino :p

BTFLCHLD

01-27-2007, 03:21 PM

sorry for my confusion....but...is the set list the same with the only changes being the encore songs? I'm very curious...if someone could post out the set-lists for austin and houston, I would appreciate it. I noticed that setlists aren't being posted on Lindsey's site this time around. :(

The wedding ring toss marriage proposal...scary. I hope LB's bodyguards are well in place. :distress: and writing on LB's jeans...that is F'in rude ass bull****! :mad:

01-27-2007, 04:27 PM

I'm pretty sure the set list was the same as other cities - except for the encore songs. SMAP and SYHA were both after GYOW.

And at what point did he play Shut Us Down?

wondergirl9847

01-27-2007, 04:42 PM

He is playing SUD...at the VERY end. Yeah, the setlist has been the same with changes towards the end of the show...like after Show You How. Sometimes, you get SMAP, sometimes not...like in Houston. SYHA sometimes, then last night, Turn It On, instead of that. He used to end with BTLH, now, it's SUD.

VIVA VARIETY!!! :blob2:

:laugh:

I cannot frickin' WAIT until tonight's show...with the DVD thing. Unfortunately, it's friggin' freezing here, windy and cloudy. Please, GOD, do not let it rain tonight!!

I need to figure out what to wear!!!! LOL

Let's sue Lindsey for mental anguish caused by a lack of a European tour.
Our compensation will be a private show where he plays not only Shut Us Down and Turn It On but also all the cool Tusk, Law & Order and Go Insane tracks he omitted from this tour :D

AliceLover

01-27-2007, 05:52 PM

So since he started his tour in October he has done all the following just as rarities and requests from the usual set?...

Save Me a Place
Bleed to Love Her
Down on Rodeo
Bwana
Johnny Stew (7 seconds of it at least)
Shut us Down
Turn it On
Murrow (dropped right?)

Again, Christy I'm very curious...was Turn it On just with Lindsey or with the full band?

shackin'up

01-27-2007, 05:54 PM

AliceLover

01-27-2007, 05:56 PM

and steal your heart away and shut us down.

Turn it on is done by Lindsey alone. I'm very curious about that arrangement.

Aww, I hope he adds the band. Turn it on is a song that just needs to rock. Im not saying that its bad, its still my favorite OOTC song, but that would work great instead of IKINW.

Yeah, Johnny Stew, Mary Lee Jones, The Ledge. Walk a Thin Line, WMYTYTO, Loving Cup, Wrong, Play In The Rain, Given Thing, Shuffle Riff.

That's enough for me.

01-27-2007, 09:28 PM

turn it on was with the full band...kinda sloppy, like they just learned it yesterday...but cool nonetheless...

wondergirl9847

01-28-2007, 01:24 AM

It was totally with the band...he did it again tonight (looking down at the words and all. Heh). For some reason, I was thinking it was acoustic.

Just got home from Fort Worth and OMFRICKIN'G!!!!!! I GOT MY PIC WITH LINDSEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More to come in a few....

Hello all---

I thought I'd share some thoughts on Friday's Houston show. Before I get started, though, for anyone who wants to be surprised, there will probably be some SPOILERS below.

Okay, first, here's the set list in case there were any doubts about what he
played:

Not Too Late [solo]
Trouble [solo]
Never Going Back Again [solo]
Second Hand News
Cast Away Dreams
Red Rover
It Was You
Big Love [solo]
[poem]/Go Insane [solo]
Under the Skin
World Turning/drum solo
I'm So Afraid
I Know I'm Not Wrong
Tusk
Go Your Own Way
Holiday Road
Show You How
Turn It On
Shut Us Down [solo]

Let me first say that, as this was my first time to see Lindsey live, I think it was simply amazing. As a guitarist and songwriter, it was amazing being just a few rows from the stage and seeing how he plays some of the songs.

He played with a lot of energy, and it was obvious that, as the crowd's energy grew over the course of the night, Lindsey fed off the crowd and his own energy level grew.

Regarding the set, I hadn't checked any of the posted set lists, so I didn't realize that it was, for the most part, the same set he's been playing for the whole tour with the exception of the last two songs. Having checked the other set lists now, I have to say that I'm disappointed that he so rarely changes the set list, but then, I guess I should be happy that he changed two songs.

My favorites were "Trouble," "Second Hand News," "Cast Away Dreams," "Under the Skin," I Know I'm Not Wrong," "Holiday Road," and "Turn It On."

"I'm So Afraid" got a slightly different arrangement than the FM version, with Neale's guitar providing a moody atmosphere in place of the keyboards in the Mac version. Still, I couldn't help thinking that Lindsey has played this song at virtually every show he's played since 1997. If nothing else, I'd have liked him to swap it for "Tango in the Night" or one of the other similar type songs.

Similarly, "Big Love," "Go Insane," "Tusk," and "Go Your Own Way" were predictable inclusions in the set. I guess he probably couldn't get away with NOT doing the last two.

The only song I was truly disappointed to hear was "Red Rover." I never liked it on GIFT OF SCREWS, and I still don't like it. Lindsey is one of my favorite musicians, but this is one of the few of his songs that I think is lesser compared to the rest of his work.

Really, though, my only real complaint about the set was the order. Ideally, you want to start low, build the energy a little bit, bring it back down a little, then build again through the end of the show. I understand his reasoning with beginning with "Not Too Late," because it sets the tone for both the album and the show. "Trouble" and "Never Going Back Again" brought the energy level up a bit, and "Second Hand News" really got the energy going. The energy sustained through "World Turning," but the song's extended drum solo, which ended with Brett Tuggle playing a bunch of samples of Lindsey's lead vocal, seemed to go on a little too long.

The energy picked back up with "I Know I'm Not Wrong" and continued through "Holiday Road," but at the end of that song, Lindsey and the band broke into a barking exchange [mocking the dog barks at the end of the recorded version of the song], and it seemed to leave the crowd a little bewildered. Lindsey even commented about whether they had more or less dignity left after it, but, regardless, it ruined the energy. When "Holiday Road" began, the whole crowded jumped to its feet.

Lindsey then introduced the band, commenting that Taku is his new favorite drummer and that Neale is his sounding board for ideas, etc. He spoke highly of Brett, too, who returned the favor by introducing their boss.

"Turn It On" was the one real surprise of the night for me, but it seemed a little unrehearsed to me...like they weren't sure how to end it. Still, it was great to hear.

Finally, the band, as expected, was top-notch. I'm not sure why, but for some reason, I thought it would be just Lindsey, Neale, and Taku. I didn't
realize Brett Tuggle would be there, and his presence [on rhythm guitar, keyboards, bass, and backing vocals] really filled out the sound. There was actually very little interaction between Lindsey and the band or between the band members themselves. The interaction got a little better starting at the halfway mark, with Brett and Neale making eye contact or grinning at each other every once in a while. A couple of times, Lindsey ended a song by stomping over to the drum riser. Otherwise, except for Lindsey, the other musicians stuck to their respective areas of the stage. In fact, until "I Know I'm Not Wrong," the other band members were sitting down. I assume this was a conscious decision on Lindsey's part to convey the "living room" mood of the album.

All in all, it was a very good show, and I'm certainly glad I finally saw him. The only other thing I'd add is that, for most of the show, a guy who was sitting at about row 3 or 5 kept holding up a sign asking for Lindsey's guitar pick. At one point, Lindsey was playing a solo close to the edge of the stage, and he squinted to read the sign, sort of smirked, and shook his head a little. Most of you probably know this, but for those who don't, Lindsey doesn't use guitar picks!

He does for Cast Away Dreams and Under the Skin. It's probably a stretch to think this guy was that on top of things, but he could have been asking for the pick he knew Lindsey would use on those songs.

Here are the few pics I took in Houston. Sorry they aren't all that great..except for that closeup one. I was shaking like a leaf. LOL The fourth one is really cool I think, though. I love his body pose in that one.

I think Lindsey is doing all these songs in rehearsal for the next leg. I think when he puts out his next spew of dates, the set is going to be like 4-5 songs different.

Matt Lucas

01-29-2007, 09:21 AM

He does for Cast Away Dreams and Under the Skin.

Ooops. I forgot that he mentioned that in one of the recent interviews...! However, I didn't notice him using a pick live, even though he said in the interview that he does. Did anyone else notice it? Just curious.

Yes, I watched him use a pick on a few songs. I was fascinated by it so I remember it specifically. lol Once was on Castaway Dreams and another that I remember was Under the Skin. He did use them for a few other songs too. He has about five or six on his mic at the beginning of the show. At the first shows, they were Fleetwood Mac picks. :laugh: (I think you can see them in some of the recent photos..they are bright pink :) )

When he started using one at my show, I was shocked and appalled! I was also entertained by how awkward and uncomfortable he looked:lol:.

I was in the second row at the Houston show. Lindsey was fantastic as usual! The highlight for me was "I'm So Afraid". I can't ever hear that guitar solo enough. I would love for him to do "Tango in the Night" also...do both, the more, the better! Like Wondergirl said, there was this big, fat guy who stood up during ISA, the WHOLE TIME!!! Right smack dab in front of me. I couldn't beileve this guy. My brother finally leaned over and yelled at him to sit down. He almost got into a fist fight with him. This idiot was about four feet from Lindsey. Other than that it was a night to remember!

That guy was one of the most annoying people I've ever seen at a concert. I mean, I scream like a banshee (ask any Ledgie who's been close to me at a show. LOL), but good grief, he stood up and clapped during THE ENTIRE FREAKIN' SONG. Sheebus, man!! Lindsey gets it...you are a fan! LOL

I agree..I can't hear ISA enough. It's my favorite song EVER. :thumbsup:

Lordy lordy lordy, I can't believe this AT ALL.... Christy!!!!!!!!!! That picture in your sig!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH SO WICKED COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And...oh. My. God. He did. Turn. It. On.

There's a story here. I met him and Brett after a show last year, and I mentioned Turn it On as the song I'd love most in the world to hear. Infact I said I could die happy if I just got to hear that song. ;)

And there it is. AND I WASN'T FRICKIN' THERE!!!

I am going to HAVE to go to another show. Hardship I know. ;)

I just finally got online at Kinkos after a week of no internet at all...moving, puter trouble, you name it... And I was just checking out the new tour dates. Holy wtf!!!!! I'm going to have to figure a way to get to one of these shows, I know I could (and should--the one I'm looking at going to is right in the middle of my boyfriend's trip to Toronto, and I haven't seen him since December, LOL, but...) wait, but I need to see this frickin' song, and it's too hard to believe...I'm just too sure it'll go away before I get to see it, y'know? :) It's my favorite song, I can't help it.

OMG OMG OMG!!! Christy I am SOOOO HAPPY FOR YOU...all of this is just too freakin' cool!!!
