The Seattle show was great!  The crowd was enthusiastic in their cheering
and requesting of songs, but they were really, really stiff!  I mean, not
even the "shoegazer" sway.  I didn't snag a setlist, but they played a
nice, long show, with two encores of three songs each.  I'm terrible with
remembering song names, but they played Paris & Rome, Future Song, Adrift,
Lilies, Shining Road and quite a few others.

I somehow missed the '97 show, but it was completely different than the
last time I saw them (opening for the Cure, at the Mercer Arena).  That
arena show was a lot more atmospheric and flowing, while this show was more
energetic and raw.  Needless to say, it was also much more intimate.

Sorry that you missed it.
