Is there a thread for the second Adelaide show?

If there is, I couldn't find it.

Pumped for tonight's show.

There's nothing better than seeing possibly the greatest show of your life, followed the next day by... the same thing.

Reckon he might pull out Harvest Moon and I Got You tonight. He soundchecked them.

yep.

Itll be pretty hard to top last nights show but after looking at the setlist and then thinking about the songs he didnt play, tonight is looking good. Im pumped too, pity i got crappy tix.

yeah im hoping for I Got You as well

Harvest Moon would be a perfect way to end this tour for me. Oh and Parting Ways, the last song on my 'I would be ever so thankful to hear this before I die' list.

That would be amazing! I could pretty much walk out after hearing Parting Ways.

Wow.

Just got home, what an amazing show! I thought the first night couldn't be out done, but Eddie did it.

Highlights; The first 5 songs of the show! What an amaing way to begin a night. Blackbird was beautiful. Arc was simply amazing. Second encore was great and really got the crows going.

Highlight for me. Getting on stage during hard sun.

Blackbird eh?

curious to hear his playing on that

He's played it before, you should be able to find a recording if you're really curious.

...so, another awesome night. I'd probably give the edge to the first night but both were excellent. Awesome seeing you up there for Hard Sun, Tom!

And just quietly: I met Ed after the show.

Good set, though on paper it looks like night 1 blew night 2 out of the water.

Is he still playing that awful reworked Better Man, or is it the original?

I just emailed it to you, 8/22/08 Chicago version.

Excellent show. Very hard to say which night was better as they were two completely different shows and 2 completely different setlists. Ed was alot more relaxed and chatty and said a few times how much he loved Thebby Theatre. The first night he just wanted to play.

Lots of people yelling out stupid shit. The first nights crowd was way better.

Stuff and Nonsense>I Got You was brilliant.

the poster, i think. It's about 10 different kinds of badass.



He say anything interesting?

Big yes to both of these. Ed actually stopped Sleeping by Myself halfway through to tell the audience they have the choice of either shutting the fuck up or leaving and he's happy for them to get a refund on their ticket.

The mini Stuff and Nonsense was a gem (even if the woman requesting it was really irritating).

Not much to tell about meeting Ed, met him outside Thebarton Theatre after the show. I didn't really have any intention of hanging out to meet him (I can't recall ever having done that before) but I got talking to a dude outside who was and by that stage I figured I'd hung around long enough that I may as well hang around a little while longer. Ed came out, made sure he had a quick chat to every single person who'd waited out there (about twenty people or so). Everyone had these long, involved stories to tell him (we're in a band, you're our inspiration, here's our CD/I lost someone close to me, your music helped me through it/blah blah, etc.), I just told him I didn't have much to say to him but thanks for the music in general and thanks for the great two shows over the last couple of nights. He gave me a handshake, asked my name, made small talk. Nothing super interesting - but hey, I'm glad I hung around.

Blackbird?! S&N>I Got You?!! You lucky crow-eaters!

Some cool stories to come out of the night - tell us about getting on stage Tommy...

And cool to hear you got to meet Ed Spenno, I think I'd say something similar if I ever got the chance - just a simple 'thank you' and humble handshake.

PS> So it seems EV's a bit sick of RitFW...

It was the new version but I actually really like it (and it's a bonus that the audience can't sing along).

Reworked version.

I much preferred night 1 but night 2 was still pretty brilliant, performance wise. The crowd was flat, annoying and i had a talker in my ear, but that's what happens when you're in row V of the dress circle. I really enjoyed the Sometimes -> trouble opening pair, very cool.

The poster is amazing,...stingrays!

I second this, however because I've heard it before a billion times I was able to sing along, lol
