Let me know how the show goes(anyone who's going), I am so extremely sad that I couldn't go.

The Crystal Ballroom is an incredible venue. If for no other reason than THE FLOOR IS BOUNCY! And that it's in Portland, which is pretty much the greatest city ever.

If I had money, and a car, I would've followed them through Cali.

The Seattle show blew my mind away, and subsequently, my left ear drum.

wooohoooo! awesome show! definitely on par with their show at the crystal 2 years ago...if not better. Palm Road was a little fast and iffy but other than that every song was killer. Spencer had some piano issues at one point but they got it fixed pretty quickly and I didn't hear any problems after that. crowd was great and so was the bouncy floor

Rough Setlist: (all the songs are right...order most likely not but close)

You Are A Runner (short version)
Palm Road
Cloud Shadow
Language City
What Did My Lover Say
Dear Sons and Daughters
Fine Young Cannibals
Ghost Pressure
I'll Believe In Anything
Cave-O-Sapien
This Heart's On Fire
Pobody's
California Dreamer

Encore:
Two Men in New Tuxedos
Shine A Light
Kissing The Beehive

This is what I came up with...

You Are A Runner
Palm Road
Cloud Shadow
Language City
Dear Sons and Daughters
Ghost Pressure
What Did My Lover Say
Fine Young Cannibals
---- Keyboard Trouble ----
Cave-O-Sapien
This Heart's On Fire
I'll Believe In Anything
Nobody's Perfect
California Dreamer
-----Encore---------
Two Men in New Tuxedos
Shine A Light
Kissing The Beehive

Overall an amazing show and a really great crowd.
Highlights include:
I'll Believe In Anything - The crowd completely lost their shit and sang along with the majority of the song.

California Dreamer - I've always really liked this song on the album, but it was really awesome in concert, perfectly executed.

Kissing The Beehive - I completely lost my shit (I felt like the double rainbow guy). The perfect closer that left the room floating and filled with energy.

Great reviews everyone!! And thanks for the setlist.

Have they done 'two men' at the beginning of the encore before? Weird choice no?

It was an amazing show. I got a bit of footage. Some of it is very shaky but the audio is pretty decent.

sorry for the terrible video quality...the audio is decent though and the shaking isn't so bad once you get a minute into it.

Spencer looks rad with long hair. I liked him more with short hair and a mustache though haha
