Setlist 11/8 Roseland

even close to being in order (well, here and there it is)
Spider

Why Does The Sun Shine?
Snail Shell

The Guitar
Istanbul
They Got Lost
I'm pretty sure that's it but there may have been a one or two others.
Older , They Got Lost, and Why Does the Sun Shine?, were the only non
LP songs They played. Ana Ng was the only Lincoln song and nothing
from the Pink Album was played. It was my first TMBG concert and I had
a great time. Even my girlfriend who didn't really like TMBG(she
literally tried to beat the crap out of me when I tried to play my
Factory Showroom sampler tape for her). But after the show she was
saying how great They played and she was really impressed by Them. She
already stole my Apollo 18 CD because she loved The Guitar and she's
going to steal Flood too I know it(God help me I've created a
monster). Any improvements on the setlist (i.e putting it in the
correct order:) or adding something I missed )would be greatly
appreciated. Did anyone tape this show by any chance? I seriously
doubt it just because of the fact that I was there. No show I've ever
gone to has ever been taped(at least to my knowledge). It definitely
sucks...

over our head or my friend saying "liz, i think this man just bit me.."

a good show, quite rockn, none of the niffty little surprises from the

Nooooo! Eric is *not* part of this song! Eric does not deserve to be
lost in the same STATE as They Might Be Giants!
I'm curious. Is there *anyone* who actually *likes* Eric's playing?
Anyone?

I have nothing against it. He seems to be a competent musician and
he's in no way damaged any of Their music, in my opinion. I mean, to
me TMBG is John and John -- the rest are optional. So as far as band
members go, Eric is fine. He's no John, but nor are any of the other
members...

Yup...me. I liked his work with Iggy Pop, and I like his work with TMBG.
