permit me to go insane... this will not be a calm post.
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD THE HOLD STEADY ARE TRYING TO KILL ME! I AM KEEPING THE SETLIST AS EVIDENCE OF ATTEMPTED MURDER! THEY PLAYED KNUCKLES, ADDERALL, CHILLOUT TENT, EXPLODE AND ARMS AND HEARTS!
i should've known this show was gonna go off. however, i did not know that any of this was going to happen and, of course, i almost exploded.
i am bruised all over. i am so freaking happy right now.
fuck me.
AMAAAAAAAAZING!!!!!!!
thank you everyone. everyone! craig finn must also never say my name on stage again because when he does i come very close to bursting into flames and running around the room screaming "yayayayayayayayay!"
i am stunned. don't let me explode... ;D

my mother looked at me this morning and said "good time then?" she knew just from my over-excited, ridiculous grin. then i bounced around the room listening to knuckles and she was like "going to london too? blimey"
there are no words. thank you everyone, this was a much needed show and now i must try to remain calm.
or i'll be a pile of ash before even getting on the train to london...

Hope the setlist in London is similar, that really is a fucking perfect selection.

Yeah, you can't fault that setlist. Except it says Killer at the bottom where it should say Slapped!

THEY PLAYED KNUCKLES, ADDERALL, CHILLOUT TENT, EXPLODE AND ARMS AND HEARTS! i should've known this show was gonna go off. however, i did not know that any of this was going to happen and, of course, i almost exploded. i am bruised all over. i am so freaking happy right now. fuck me.

Sounds absolutely amazing... Arms & Hearts is possibly the best song recorded in the BaGIA sessions... I am yet to get "...explode" I think, and I've never seen them do Chillout Tent although once I asked Franz to add it when he was writing out the set... fn: "any requests?" me: "chillout tent" fn: "ah." or something... Y'know what I think would slot in really well with the more epic Stay Positive tracks? TEENAGE LIBERATION.

I think when I've seen footage of them doing Chilllout, it's been Franz and Tad doing the vocals, and singing "She got really hot and then she...they gave her oranges..." etc. rather than "I got really hot" etc.
I think that might be the geekiest thing I've ever written. ;D

That show sounds beautiful. Too far for me (since I can't think of any trains to Wolverhampton)

Ee! What a great setlist! Also Han, what did Craig say in his shoutout?! shoutout to me and howard (it's an honour, as ever, sir). basically we are a joy to behold. is this because we are mental? methinks it is.
