October 24th at Lupo's. This is gonna be sweet.

[Nobodyhearsyou]

Dolphins are the second smartest creatures on earth.

[Petzl]

Yeah, you'll learn that kind of thing in 8th grade science.

[andrewa5]

Wait so who is on this tour?

[aradiantsunrise]

They play on my birthday, November 3rd. I may go.

[aradiantsunrise]

Wait so who is on this tour?

Annuals and 27 are touring with them.

[MCSmate]

I really hope they go and make a Nov 22 in Portland :)

[Petzl]

There are a couple different bands. The Lupo's Show has Annuals and Sylvie.

[Nobodyhearsyou]

I hope they are playing at the aquarium.

[GuitarR0cker1]

I won't be seeing them sadly.:-(

[Thomas Balkcom]

I will be there 11/1!

[Petzl]

Well the tour started a couple days ago. Lets see some set lists in the near future!

[Stupendous_Man]

I'm there the 22nd. I saw them last year around the same time.

[ShimmerAndSpill]

Any set-lists yet?

[voncorn]

061502 > This tour

[Derekx]

If things work out I'll be at the Glasshouse.

[Petzl]

I found this setlist here: http://www.showmethesetlist.com/bands/Minus_The_Bear/4239.php

10/11/08 Gothic Theater, CO

Lotus
Throwin' Shapes
The Game Needed Me
The Pig War
Dr. L'ling
Houston, We Have an Uh-Oh
When We Escape
New Song (Newsroom?)
Guns and Ammo (Acoustic)
We Are Not A Football Team (Acoustic)
Pachuca Sunrise (Acoustic)
Burying Luck
I Lost All of My Money at the Cock Fights
Knights
Drilling

(Encore)
White Mystery

Pretty solid in my opinion, the 3 acoustic songs are a huge plus, but I think White Mystery is a really weak Encore and there is a huge lack of Highly Refined Pirates songs.

[ShimmerAndSpill]

How was absinthe party not played?

[jhog3411]

They tour so much that it doesn't matter to me what they play. It's nice that they're playing a few songs they don't normally play and doing a few acoustic.

[Petzl]

How was absinthe party not played?

Yeah, that set list is super Menos/Planet heavy. Which really isn't that surprising I guess, but I really hope they play absinthe when I see them next friday.

wa-wa-we-wa! That sounds mighty tasty.

but I totally agree with the lack of Highly Refined - I need some Crisco Twister & Monkey, Knife, Fight at the very least.

Yeah me too, it's my favorite song by them. I though that was the song that they always closed with.

I could not agree more. I'm really disappointed at White Mystery as an encore...I think that's the weakest song on Planet of Ice. I'd love to see Monkey, Knife, Fight as an encore over that.

Glad to see this set list, the other ones had me worried.

[eszoteric]

I was disappointed with the Set List posts as well...1 encore song and although White Mystery rocks, its not the best song to end on.

Absinthe Party is one of those "must play at every show " tunes.

Have fun at the show.

They didn't play the game needed me though, which is a must hear for me, but I'll have fun either way, thanks.

What show was this? Because this is the same exact setlist for RI's show at Lupo's.
And this is their last tour before recording the new record.
