Bit general there, Hattie - don't think everyone went. Can you explain the text thing please?

It was wonderful. Just as great as ever.
After playing Objectified, Jeffrey explained that he now, finally owns a cell phone. He then talked about how strange it was that everyone in the room probably had a phone on them, and how crazy 800 phones in one room was. He wondered what would happen if they all called his phone at the same time. Would it explode? So he read out his phone number, and we all called him at once. One girl near the back got through, and they talked for a while. It was pretty funny.
The setlist was great. I'm probably forgetting a few and it's not the right order but it was something like:
Big A, Little A
Whistle Past The Graveyard
I Couldn't Take It Anymore (painfully brilliant)
Objectified
Time Machine
The Singing Tree
History Of Communism in Korea
Roll Bus Roll
The Upside Down Cross
Systematic Death
Good Old Pig
The Last Time I Did Acid I Went Insane (long drone intro - AWESOME! into: This Is Madness)
They Always Knew They'd Make It
Champion Jim
Back When I Was Four
Been Caught Stealing (Jane's Addiction)
Texas
The Jane's Addiction cover was great, and so unexpected! _________________ myspace.com/frozymusic |

Woah! Been Caught Stealing?! Amazing!
Crazily excited about seeing the guys on Monday now.
On a boat... ON A BOAT!
Okay, the last two times I saw them play was on a boat, but it's still pretty cool, right? |

I've been listening to the CD the whole day before the gig, and I must say I wasn't disappointed at all, it was very good. The phone stuff made me laugh and I even sent a text after, just to thank him and the band for this nice gig.
The songs we heard and that weren't on the latest album can be found on the older, if so I might want to buy them too  |

Yeah it was a great, show. they thought it might have been the biggest show they've every headlined.
I'm not sure Jeff thought through the whole phone thing, he's probably still sifting through the thousands of texts he's no doubt received since that night!
I loved the Jane's addiction solo acoustic cover, it was so unexpected

Hey good job with the set list, how did you remember all that?!
Don't worry about you dissapearing. I also had places to be and people to see. I guess we're all just too popular! *sigh* _________________ "The last time i met Jeffrey Lewis i went insane" |
