Great show. Small venue. Times have really changed since seeing Ed go crazy in front of 10,000 people to White Discussion to the types of shows that he is playing today. That being said, his voice sounded great and better than it did a few months. Lower register very impressive but not as good as he used to be when he tries the falsetto.

The new songs are a VAST improvement to what was on Alive and SFBM. A lot more dynamic with more feeling and not as overtly religious or preachly. Not nearly as good as vintage Live, however.

Peter Buck from REM is playing guitar on 8 songs on the new CD which is obviously a huge step up from Alive.

The songs I remember him playing were (no order):

Selling the Drama
The Great Beyond
All Over You
The Dolphins Cry
All That I Wanted
Seven
Angels on a Razor
I alone
Heaven
Pillar of Davidson
Overcome
The One
Lightening Crashes
Pain Lies on the Riverside

How was The One? Never heard it before.

How was The One? Never heard it before.

Yeah, he said it was only his second time playing it live. It was good, would have to hear it a few more times before properly evaluating. All That I Wanted sticks out as my favorite new one although Angels on a Razor and Seven are solid as well.

He played The Garden as well.
