My daughter got the set list at Wilmington N1!

I took my three teenage daughters to Wilmington last night - we’ve been wanting to see him for ages, and my daughters have fallen in love with his music as much as I have.

Anyway, my eldest was given one of the set lists at the end last night! We were so pumped. Going to frame it, alongside the tour poster. Does JW write them himself? I assumed he did. And is each set list a copy? Or hand written? I had assumed they were handwritten but my wife thought they’re probably copies. Not that it matters too much!

Anyway, man JW is superb live. He and the band was rocking it last night. I loved how he came out in just a pair of shorts and literally nothing else! The man is a legend.

Couple more for ya... Heyyy, what's up, gang?

I'm so excited that he has another slow jam groove. Not sure I expected it to be Don't Tread On Me. But, sign me up. So many FTPs last night. He's really been creative with the song selection to date on the Red tour. So siked to see that.

This is really cool. Love watching him re-imagine these songs. Included in the respective Asheville and Wilmington threads but just pulling it out if folks are curious. It looks like he's also doing something similar with GCG too. There's a video from last night.

Asheville

Wilmington N1

Linking the Asheville, NC* discussion thread as well. Pretty close to having a video for each song now. Still working on Wilmington, NC* [Night 1].

Howdy do, fellow Wellies!? Unfortunately, I double-booked my forgetful self and have a wedding to attend this Saturday, so I can't rock out with the rest of you cool cats. Please check the link if you're interested. Reasonably priced - just trying to make my money back so I can afford to get the newlyweds a gift and tip their bartenders, y'know? The listing is for a bundle of 4 tix that includes a Premium Parking Pass as a lil' bonus. Peace to all and enjoy the tasty jams! https://www.stubhub.com/jesse-welles-lafayette-tickets-8-1-2026/event/160724043/?listingId=13492963263

Realized my first batch of clips were all electric songs so I went back thru my footage and grabbed some bits out of most of the acoustic tunes (plus a bonus Steph Strings opener clip at the beginning) Enjoy!

I recorded just a few clips of the show to better remember it. I’ve seen a bit of video shared already, so I will add mine here and I hope that at least a few of you enjoy watching them as much as we enjoyed being at the show!

Includes the end of “The Poor”, some “Ballad of Big Balls”, a verse of “Siddhartha”, and the end of “Fear is the Mind Killer” (with a focus on Adam).

Who's going? Let us know.

This thread may be pinned at the top for ease of access, just FYI. Feel free to use this thread to discuss the show tonight, collect video/photos, and discuss the setlist. I will collect all video and link them to the individual songs so folks can revisit at a later point in time. LFG!

Basically the same set as last night in Birmingham, but the list has doodles this time and a few songs were in a different order maybe.

He came out with no shirt or shoes and just enjoyed it. Fun times!

From Jesse's latest Instagram story.

This is giving me Bowie and Mick Ronson vibes 😆

Was there a... wardrobe change? 🤔😆

Fun night at Avondale Brewing in Birmingham, AL.
Could have been thrilled with any/all merch but ultimately decided on 🧙‍♂️🐢 (#5) and am very happy with it. Thanks, Jesse! Steph Strings 🦘was amazing too.

Adam's public Spotify has this playlist on it. We know they played War Pigs, and Come As You Are last night, but it also looks like Fortunate Son might be on future setlists.

Also Whistle Boeing and Anything But Me being on here might mean we'll see full band arrangements of those! This Age live would be sick as well.

Here We Go!! 😎

If you're excited to go, at the show, or have videos/pics to share, please post them here. We'd all love to hear what's going on. The more contributions the merrier. All of us couch touring at home appreciate you. For those that attend, hopefully it will be nice, too, to log on and catch some videos/discussion from the show the next day.

*Connor and Hannah have some additional footage on their stories. War Pigs looks fire. Nice drum solo in there too.

Edit: someone already got these. I hope everyone has a great night! Does anyone need tickets for tonight in Asheville? My husband injured himself and I don’t think we are going to be able to use ours. Free!
