the lawrence show was amazing! to clear up any confusion as to how many people are playing with them, here it is...besides jeremy, dan, and will, they have a bass player (the guy from heroic doses, i can't remember his name), a guy who plays 3rd guitar and keyboards and does backup vocals, and they also have a guy doing some percussion, making a total of 6 people on stage. the backup vocals were right on! no one could match jeremy's voice as well as this guy. all the new stuff sounded straight off of the album. i was very impressed with him, the keyboards added so much to the hiftbso stuff, as well as the new stuff. and like i said, the backup vocals were so right on, and so jeremy. the bass player was also great, in will's words, "...the best bass player i've ever worked with." no lie. i don't know if it's been mentioned, but they also have the pillars/g&vg 7" for sale at the the shows. here's the setlist...fool in the photograph/pillars/one/the ocean/killed by an angel/guitar and video games/snibe/estya/disappear/tearing in my heart/j'nuh/(encore)the rising tide/in circles here's a question to everyone who's been to a show...did they do an extra long jam (ending?) to the rising tide? they did something after that song and i don't know if it was a long ending or something else. the weather was a little inclimate in kansas last night and dan made a funny remark about wouldn't it be cool if a tornado just came right through this place. that's about it from me until austin and dallas... john http://www.oklahoma.net/~jlondon/sdre.html
