Wow, getting out the vote can sure be fun. I got free tix (thanks!), a free shirt and poster (thanks for being too drunk to remember your shit), and some quality sing along time at another PJ concert.
One thing- WTF with Gob Roberts? Tim Robbins is funny and the band sounded ok, but I think it went over a lot of folks heads. I'd like to hear the songs on CD- they were kinda like NOFX's "Idiot Son of an Asshole."
here's the breakdown:
ed pre-set: Don't Be Shy, You've Got to Hide Your Love Away
setlist: Release, Last Exit, Hail Hail, Save You, Do the Evolution, Dissident, The American in Me (The Avengers), Insignificance, Untitled, MFC, Given to Fly, Even Flow, Down, Jeremy
encore 1 (acoustic): Lowlight, Masters of War, Small Town, Last Kiss, Crazy Mary
encore 2: Love Boat Captain, Better Man, Bleed for Me (The Dead Kennedys), Blood
encore 3: Alive
notes: Howard Zinn was brought out- he said, "Stop the War" and got an ok response although I heard plenty of hissing. Also the $$ from the two Boston shows will go to the West Memphis Three, which is totally cool.
