Hellogoodbye/Fun. tour

[artyinthebank]

Anyone got the setlist on this? It comes to Chain Reaction tomorrow 08/19/09. Should be a good one!

Also does anyone have an extra ticket? Turns out my nephew just flew in from PA and would be super pumped on attending this show. Anyone have/know anyone who has a ticket? It would be greatly appreciated. Pumped!

heading to the chain show tonight. stooooked.

I can hear them sound checking right now. Forrest has crazy autotune on his mic. Pretty disappointed. Thought he was moving on from that. :(

[ari telescope]

How was there not a thread for this yet? It's hot out here. I need an extra ticket for tonight. Anyone?

[thechrisformat]

Hopefully we can finally get a fun. and LIMBECK set list from tonight. I know fun. has been playing "Walking The Dog", "Be Calm", "At Least I'm Not As Sad" and "The First Single", but that's it... And these might be Limbeck's last shows. Need setlist.

[caityconundrum]

No "The First Single" tonight :-(

I'm so glad I finally got to see Limbeck though. Hate myself for not having done so sooner. Their set was wonderful, though I didn't save titles or anything.

[itslillers]

fun. was supposed to play "The First Single"???! Booo.. disappointment! But the rest of the fun. setlist was still good though.

My Favorite Highway played

Getaway Car
What Are You Waiting For?
Go
Bigger Than Love
Dreamer
Say So

And maybe one other song.

they didn't play any Format songs? bummer.

[caityconundrum]

None at alllll. I was hoping they might but not really expecting it. Still a great set though.

Hellogoodbye:

Shimmy Shimmy Quarter Turn
Call N' Return
All Time Lows
New Song
Baby Its Fact
Dear Jamie
New Song
Two Weeks In Hawaii
Bonnie Taylor
When We First Met
New Song
Oh It Is Love

Encore:
The Thoughts That Give Me The Creeps
Here In Your Arms

Not too many surprises on this one. Forrest had the ridiculous autotune on his mic and kind of just talked to the crowd and acted all whacky to try and kill time. Definitely got out shined by Fun. on this night and from what I heard on other websites that seems to be happening every night on the tour.

Fun.
Benson Hedges
Walking the Dog
All the Pretty Girls
The Gambler
At Least I'm Not As Sad (As I Used to Be)
Take Your Time (Coming Home)

IMO Fun. totally stole the show before Hellogoodbye went on. If you guys haven't seen this band live yet you're missing out and you need to jump on that ASAP. Major props to this band.

[caityconundrum]

Out of order, but I know Limbeck played Silver Things, This Place is Deserted, Julia, Albatross + Ivy and Honk + Wave plus others.

They played The Format songs back when fun. was still fresh and didn't have music samples out, and needed to remind people who they were, or probably in certain places where people wouldn't know still. It's a tactic that most people do when they quit a band to start a new one. I'm sure they'll pull like Andrew McMahon in the future and play old jams when they're bigger, but at this point, I wouldn't expect to hear a Format song as a standard in their setlists.

Anyway, fun. stole the show. A year from now, they're going to be selling out bigger venues, Format style. It really, really was an explosive performance, you're going to have a fucking blast.

yeah, the only reason i'm surprised is because when i saw them open for MO, Nate said something about how they loved playing old songs and they would continue to play them as long as we promised to learn their new stuff as well, haha.

Well, that'll be something cool to look forward to, but I can see how on this tour they're trying to win over as many new fans with new music as possible. Can't wait still :)

Not too shabby at all....I'm so excited to finally see them. It would be cool if they could throw in Bittersweet Life or the Chase, but I will take what I can get!!

[chcougar1]

Saw this tonight. Fun was definitely the act of the night. They even threw The First Single in the set and it was awesome.

My Favorite Highway was good too. I was looking forward to seeing them because they have never been to Seattle before. They are going to be on a pretty decent sized tour in the fall and I am looking forward to that!

[weworemasks]

someone rumored that limbeck was breaking up. has anyone heard anything along the lines of this? i mean they're having a "yard sale" of their merch...

[Wildness774]

just saw them at northern michigan
forrest klein was really cool
