Setlist


Karl's Corner

...the Detroit "contest winners" show at the Airborne skatepark was, as far as I could tell, a big success, and a lot of fun! (what a sweet park, I wish I could ride it everyday...) The guys practiced a lot of those new new songs during soundcheck, including several that weren't played during the St. Louis show, including a very pretty slow one that Rivers called "December", but hastened to add that the title wasn't decided yet. The show was all Blue, Pink, and Green, however, as you can see from the setlist below. Then the autograph line got lined up, and the guys, unhastened by any other bands this time, stayed and signed till everyone was through. Some pretty interesting characters have been coming to these things!
