OH MY GOD FINALLY!!!!!!!
I have been trying to register onto this website for almost 3 months now, apparently there was a technical issue that has now been fixed. Anyway, I am a HUGE OLP fan and I live in PEI. Was reading all these posts and was very desperate to post.
Here's a rough setlist that OLP played at the concert (I already posted this at clumsycongress.com):
In order:
Kiss on the Mouth
Angels Losing Sleep
Wipe that Smile Off Your Face (Raine did the whole "fuck you Bush, I'm from Canada bit)
Somewhere Out There
Innocent
In Repair
One Man Army
Clumsy
4 AM
Superman's Dead
Dreamland (new song from their new album)
Hope (sweeet)
Starseed
Naveed
Anyway, they fuckin` rocked the house! Matt Mays played before and no one was riled up, I though the concert would be lame, but once OLP started everyone was jumpin!
I also want to comment on "Dreamland", as a response to the user "Illusion".
IMO, the song had much more of a Gravity vibe than a pre-Gravity vibe. Now, thankfully, it had no political feel or forced lyrics feel like with HIPT, but the lyrics were kinda generic and the tune itself wasn't really memorable—given that I barely remember the song.
I don't even really remember any lyrics other than what was already mentioned, and other vague lyric memories include "feet off the ground" or "floating __ feet off the ground", I forget. The beginning of the song was kinda a stacatto riff. I can't actually remember much except that other people around me said "well that wasnt that good".
But like I said, it was still pretty sweet. Any other questions, PLEASE let me know. I plan to post regularly, I just haven't done so yet because I couldn't register!

Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.
And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

I'm still pretty worried about the album... And judging by Patrick's analysis of Dreamland, it only raises my fears. However, I think the band has the right idea about giving out information about the album and playing it's songs. Whenever a band hypes up their new album quite a bit, it's tough to meet it's expectations. OLP hasn't given much info about it besides it being more similar to Naveed, so we don't really have a chance to get our hopes up too much or not have our expectations met...

Hey patrick, thanks for the info there, that was exactly what I curious about!
I guess I'm just one of those fans who is blindly holding onto hope that OLP will go back to the style that originally made them great (assuming that they're even able to at this point). I think it's probably because I became a fan post-gravity and I would do almost anything to actually live through a "Spiritual Machines" or a "Clumsy" (I would give almost anything to be at the concerts where OLP were still playing Trapeze and the piano version of Julia). I was kinda hoping with Raine's latest interviews that it might actually happen.
I know I shouldn't be surprised to hear that the band is still writing Gravity-esque music, but I can't help but feel a little let down.
