Sup y'all. FUN FUN show last night. It was actually surprisingly vacant and low energy (audience-wise) up until near the end where the place started filling up and going crazy.. which is kinda cool in it's own way. I guess SF ain't much of an OLP city, so it speaks volumes that when people did start coming in (probably not fans) that they still went nuts as the show progressed. Was actually really excited to see people really getting pumped up and clapping along with As Fast As You Can as much as when they played staples like Clumsy, even though I'm pretty sure almost no one had heard it before. In other words.. I think this could be huge as a single if it gets enough airplay. Also, I thought Raine sounded amazing.. judging by his performances as of late, would not be surprised if he has been getting some vocal training..
Also..heard you guys were looking for a setlist..
^ The above is not super accurate.. they inserted Starseed right after As Fast...
They ended the first encore with Is Anybody Home? before the crowd went crazy again with the whole house stomping the floor, chanting "one more song." Cue 4AM, the end of the night, and a happy audience.
Also got to meet Raine after the show. Amazing night for an OLP fan. The small venue and audience actually worked out well for me. If I was back in Toronto, i'td have been considerably harder to get to the front of the crowd or meet the band.
