bböp Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Fun show tonight in Madrid. About 2 hours and 15 minutes in all, a little longer than they've been playing. Definitely more evidence that not only does the crowd feed off the band, but the band feeds off the crowd as well. I think there were at least a few VCers there, so I'll leave the bulk of the reviewing up to them. But, for now, here was the setlist: Sunken TreasureWilco (the song)HummingbirdHell Is ChromeHandshake DrugsIATTBYHMuzzle of BeesA Shot in the ArmAt Least That's What You SaidBull Black NovaJesus, etc.You Are My FaceImpossible GermanyVia ChicagoPoor Places>Spiders (Kidsmoke)-------------------MisunderstoodYou Never KnowHate It HereWalkenI'm The Man Who Loves You-------------------A Magazine Called Sunset (dedicated to drum tech Nate)The Late GreatsHoodoo VoodooI'm A Wheel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shakespeare In The Alley Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 That is quite a great looking setlist. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bböp Posted May 26, 2009 Author Share Posted May 26, 2009 Not to reply to my own post, but I also have to say that while I'm not typically a fan of corporate naming of arenas and clubs and the like, I must say that it was nevertheless pretty awesome that the Teatro Haagen-Dazs Calderon featured a full-service Haagen-Dazs outlet in the lobby. That's never a bad thing, IMHO. Oh, and "You Never Know" sounded pretty awesome. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Preferred B Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Banoffee ice cream from the theater lobby is always a winner. I really had fun tonight. Muchas gracias a Madrid! Loved hearing "You Never Know" - as soon as Glenn started out with those drum beats I knew it was on. "Bull Black Nova" was excellent again, but it's not just the new songs that are highlights. Spanish crowds seem to love "Impossible Germany." I mean, it's not unusual that a crowd would love the song. But the reactions I've seen so far seem to go above and beyond what I'm used to in the U.S. The "Magazine" dedication to Nate came about because Jeff claimed Nate goes online and requests it for every show.

okp greg Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 That is a pretty awesome setlist, and I'm glad to see You'll Never Know making its way into the shows. I'm pretty sure this will be a kick-your-ass-tour for the band and the fans. I'm a little surprised to see such a non W(TA) focused setlist thus far, but at the same time I understand that they want to wait til the album officially comes out.

Edie Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Thanks for the info Paul/Brianne! So are they playing BBN similarly to the album, or are they stretching it out at all? I gotta say, I am definitely looking forward to seeing it live (whenever the hell that might be). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
