thanks for writing this great review, the show last night was awesome, no concert will ever top that one last night, thats how good it was.

I was definitely trying not to cry when they played certain songs haha

Great review! I was surprised that they ended their set with This Ride rather than The Best of Me.

hahaha i hafta say ready and island was their best two of the night, and kenny sounded like he was genuine and he really wanted to be back with tsl which is great i dont think anything will ever top that show, especially since i was front row ha, seeing such gold live has made me fall in love with them now, and i used to hate hit the lights but since they didnt sound over produced last night it was actually really really good

Me too! O well, at least they played both songs haha.

Yea dude. The way Kenny was talking you could tell he missed it. I love Such Gold so much, the best guys. The HTL dudes rule as well.

Sounds fantastic. I do hope they officially get back together.

Thanks for the shout-out on the setlist!

Solid review. I've seen them nine (maybe ten?) times now and this was the best I ever remember them being, so I give you a lot of credit for writing a pretty fair assessment. Especially like your point about "Luck." I still definitely think it's a step forward from Direction, but now that you mention it sounding like a b-side, it almost seems like it could have been written alongside "Time to Run."

No problem! I was in too much bliss and had no room to keep track of a set list.

haha yeah, I know what you mean. My buddy and I pieced it together on the ride home.

Pretty much my thoughts exactly on the show. Even though this was my 7th or 8th time seeing them, it never gets old. My only gripe was the fact that I was 4 days post-wisdom teeth removal, so I couldn't unleash middle-school me completely haha. Oh well, made it through the night with only a few punches to the mouth and dry socket free so no complaints.

Nothing beats "Best of Me" live though. Nothing.

Happy you got to see this...

That TSL setlist is stunning. I hope this becomes permanent.

I missed them while they were gone & I just have been losing all my favorite bands...

TEN is by the wayside & I could only pray one day that TEN & TSL would play together again.

I think I would explode (this all just being a dream of course).

add "something left to give" and that is a perfect setlist. thanks for the review!

Nice review, man. Also, *begs for details about the new HTL album* haha.

I agree with you about the Mix; you could hardly hear guitars and in some areas it was hard to hear vox... and the Starland Ballroom overpacked that place beyond anything I could have imagined. I disagree with you saying Such Gold had a great performance. They honestly sounded awful, way too much distortion and whatever singing/screaming they did, it honestly sounded like static. I'm opened to all types of music and genre and Such Gold were bad. They need to balance out their sound better.
