Glee Live In Concert @ Gibson Amphitheatre Thu 5/20
Glee Live In Concert @ Gibson Amphitheatre Fri 5/21

We’re guessing news of a Glee live show is a big deal to fans of the show and of complete indifference to the other 95% of us. You know which camp you fall into.

Jamie Lidell @ Troubadour Thu 4/29

Thanks for the tip, E.K.

The photo and set list comes from the Posterous of Piero, who was at the gig last night. I mean today, but yesterday, other side of the Date Line. A few more snapshots over there. Funny to see even in a blurry wide shot, they are distinct as remembered–Malkmus’s stage right sideways stance and Fender, Ibold’s center stage hunch, Westie’s beard behind the kit, Nastanovich on keys, percussion and shouting (see other pics), Spiral stage left on guitar (for better or worse sticking with the hat these days).

A hearty 25-song set list, touching on all the records. Of course Coachella won’t get this long a set but I’m guessing many of these, especially the hits. Couldn’t find any reliable review yet on how well they performed and how the sound is these days. Even as a big fan, I admit they the they were a dicey proposition live, different almost each time I saw them. They did get tighter and louder towards the end of their original run.

Songs played below.
