A few changes from the previous nights. No Gee Angel or encore break but 3 guest vocalists

Didn't know the first one (Paris ? Hood from Portland) on JC Auto

Craig Finn on Helpless

Jason Narducy on IICCYM.

Opu.

The Drive-By Tuckers' Patterson Hood? It would make sense - David Barbe produced a couple of his solo albums. He's not from Portland, though (neither OR nor ME...)

That'll be him. David definitely did say all the way from Portland Oregon .

I guess that's where that Alabama cat lives, indeed, according to Bandcamp. Didn't know that.

I can only assume that Craig Finn wet his pants out of excitement.  (I say this as a fan, he obviously has shown his cred on the See A Little Light tribute among many other tributes)

I’m glad they are having some fun and mixing things up.  I know we’re all hoping for monster shows, but they deserve some ‘victory lap’ moments too.  

Still hoping for Chicago dates….

He was definitely energetically living his best life during the song!

Delurking for a hot second to note that with regard to "living his best life during the song," he certainly knows of what he speaks. I had the good fortune to have Opu within eyeshot over my right shoulder for the show Friday and Saturday and cannot imagine a more joyful expression on a fan's face. Singing along, every song, every word. Was a real treat meeting him and some of you other list legends who made the pilgrimage. Hope everyone got home in one piece. For myself I'm happy to report being safely back in DC and between the walking, the standing, the bouncing, and the long drive, am hopeful for a full calf recovery very soon. ;-)

cheers,

I’m slowly getting back to normal after a 6 hour flight delay to San Francisco last night and one of our cats repeatedly throwing himself at our bedroom door at 5 am to wake me up!

But it was great seeing everyone. Anyone going to the San Francisco show, let me know! We have to have a group photo under the marquee!

Thanks very much Gregg!

I was genuinely blown away by everyone I met from the List and how instantly you all treated me like you'd known me for years.

Along with Sunday night (concern about Malcolm on Saturday and my lost voice and needing to rest it on Monday put a slight dampner on things for me) meeting everyone I did over the 3 days will be something that lives with me forever.

Thank you Steve and Rene, Phil, Travis, John and Riikka, Gregg, Amy, Conor, Larry (?), Keiichi and everyone else that I spoke to over the  weekend.
