The show is consistently excellent and I think tonight's was as good as the first time. The venue was full.
Other than the airport, I've never had anyone take my water before. But when they looked in my purse and saw a water bottle, they confiscated it because it was unsealed and they replaced it with a new bottle.
When Lindsey spoke to the audience, I was relieved that he could finally say that the album was actually out. He said it's out today and someone in the audience yelled, "We have it!"
I laughed when Lindsey introduced Big Love as the first single off the Tango album. He should do that when FM tours. Yeah, remind Stevie that whatsa matter baby just didn't get it! This reminds me of Stevie introducing Beautiful Child from an album named Tusk. I think she might have been a little surprised that anyone recognized the name Tusk.
To my mind, GOS is even better now than the first time. Setlist remained the same.
When Lindsey threw his guitar pick after UTS, a young man whom I (rightly or wrongly) took to be Peetsie collected it. There were a couple of women in the audience who coveted it.
When Lindsey introduced DYMM, he said that his record company, Warner's, picked it to be the single. Well, Warner's has good taste, because when they picked SYH to go first off of UTS, that was an excellent choice in my mind and DYMM works here, too. Lindsey said that they're servicing the single to radio formats and noted, with a wry smile that "servicing" is the operative word. It made me think of Underground and him saying that in his younger days he was taken for a whore. Does he feel like a prostitute servicing the radio stations, as he promotes his album?
Lindsey took great pleasure when a couple in the first row started dancing to DYMM. He smiled at them during the song and when it was over he pointed to them and said, "Yeah!"
When Lindsey introduced Wally he said that when he was listening to Wally play drums earlier, he heard a beat that made him want to get back in the studio with some Pro Tools and write something. He said he hoped he and the band would be together for a long time.
When he introduced Brett he said that Brett was versatile in many areas and amused himself with the thought of Brett's versatility. He said, "maybe that's a subject we should let lie where it is."
When he introduced TPT he said that it was actually the mate to Treason. He said while Treason tells you to let time work things out, TPT reminds you not to squander time. Hmmm. TPT says "take all the time that you need." So, how does Lindsey figure that it is telling you not to squander it.
The crowd rushes the stage for GYOW and there are people about 7 feet deep all standing.
With the audience standing at his feet, Lindsey comments that someone is daring him to go to the bar. He wonders where the bar is. He asks a woman below him what she is saying and when she screams that he is a "guitar God," Lindsey and Brett pretend that they didn't hear her and that they think she said Lindsey is a "guitar cod."
Soon, Lindsey's tour will be leaving the west coast and when he asks DYMM, the answer will be a resounding yes!
No one knows my name, walking down the street baby . . .
