Came out of the gas station last night to see a guy with a cane getting into his car wearing a Vote For Change Tour PJ shirt. I recognized it (since I also own one) and said, "Nice shirt." Turns out we've been to six of the same shows over the years. He'll be at Wrigley night one in the GA, same as me. He's never been to Wrigley and was really excited for the show. He said their music has played a huge role in dealing with his disability.

For as cynical as this board (and myself) can be about the band and its fans, it was really nice to have this random encounter. Really looking forward to next week's show.

in "Don't Gimme No Lip", is that Stone also doing the the background harmony/vocals (saying "dooooon't giiiiiive meeeee") right before the bridge – around the 1:20 mark? with headphones on, they almost sound like female vocals

I always thought about that since i first listened to it.
They really sound like female vocals.

I always thought it was Jack.

Oh interesting. I’ll take another listen with this in mind

listening to the Binaural Toronto 16 show.

Man, they really dont play any of those songs confidently. That really depresses me. The first couple songs of the show they tear through. Then kind of make their way through Binaural with a majority of the songs played with an intense hesitancy.

Following up with Corduroy to once they tear right through it.

basically - i really wish they spent their time rehearsing the songs that aren't always easy to play. They clearly fall back on the songs that are a bit more simple and/or easier to play for an arena full of screaming idiots. Its why we see, generally, the same songs in every show.
