ThirdEyeBlind: 4/24/07 NYC

[notoaststereo]

let me just say, holy shit. this was one of the best concerts I have been to. i may be a little biased because 3EB is my favorite band, but it was the first time I have seem them and I was completely blown away.

Setlist:

1. Thanks A Lot (my favorite song ever)
2. Crystal Baller
3. Losing A Whole Year
4. Wounded
5. Narcolepsy (they talked about how it has been 10 years since they started the band and how theyre finally recording their 4th album.)
6. 1000 Julys
7. A Summer Town (new song)
8. Graduate
9. A Bonfire (new song, written by Tony)
10. The Background (they said they rarely ever play it, but they decided to bring it back for this tour)
--they brought a couch on stage to play the next few songs--
11. Deep Inside Of You (acoustic)
12. Anything (acoustic)
13. Good Man (acoustic then into full band)
--they moved the couch off stage--
14. Motorcycle Drive-By
15. Never Let You Go
16. Sharp Knife (new song)
17. Jumper (with a big solo from tony and a big drum solo)
18. Semi-Charmed Life into Stairway to Heaven
Encore 1:
19. Slow Motion (Stephen acoustic)
20. How's It Gonna Be
21. God of Win (after the song someone threw a t-shirt on stage that said "Stephen, I'm Finally Legal!")
Encore 2:
22. I Want You - which ended with a short sing along of woahs


aside from maybe changing one or two song i could not have asked for a better setlist. they had a really amazing energy and really knew how to interact with the crowd. this will definitly go on my list of best shows i have been to. if you get a chance to see them do not pass it up.

holy. fucking. shit.

that setlist is pure money. i would've paid 60 bucks for it. the background is on my top songs of all time list, i like it more than motorcycle and god of wine, which seems to be the majority of every 3eb's fanbase's fav songs. #12-14 on self-titled is possibly the best record closing trio i've ever heard.

you are super lucky.

it truely was amazing. and they played my favorite song first so i didnt have to worry about not hearing it. they played all of the self titled except burning man, good for you and london (which i would have liked to here), which was fucking awesome

[myplasticyou]

perfect setlist. i've yet to see "blinded" on any of the 3eb setlists, which is kinda surprising cause wasn't that the first single off of ootv?

[HugoOne]

Seriously, I can't believe they played "The Background." That, added onto "Motorcycle Drive By" and "The God of Wine" is the perfect trio closer to any album, so to hear them live must have been phenomenal. Hell, the entire album is incredible, so to hear almost all of it live is fantastic stuff.

Great show. Terrible crowd. I was standing next to a group of high schoolers who, it seemed to me, would meet girls and then immediately try to "hold them" during the show. Kinda odd....

Oh and the girl there with her big douche-bag brother, totally lame and unnecessary. Also, the people claiming "I can't breathe" because the crowd was semi-packed, grow the fuck up. It could've been much worse.

[unwritten]

I was there too. I was about to make a thread. haha. I absolutely loved the first 2 new songs.

[unwritten]

There was an excessive amount of Bros/Dudes there. Goddamn kids...

yeah the crowd wasnt great, but i honestly didnt mind because they just played so amazing.

i think all of the new songs were amazing. i thnk the last one (sharp knife) was so good and different than what theyre used to playing. it was kind of like Misfits but louder and spacey.

My favorite quote of the night: In regards to the show, Stephan Jenkins said "This experience is not beyond me; we are finally an underground rock band....I love it."

New songs were indeed pretty groovy. Btw, is Arion still in the band?

Yeah man, seriously. Although, also a plethera of attractive girls (that were also around or exactly my age). A rarity for being 23...

[uchiha]
