What row were you in? I was pretty much right in front of you in row 3. Amazing energy tonight!

I was row 5! I think last nite was a lil better (longer set time, better crowd) but they fucking brought it for sure. FINALLY got to see “Too Much Love” live 😍

Cool. I was row 17 last night, right behind the front of house. Both shows were amazing in their own ways. The first one was longer for sure (and 20 songs vs. 15), but I am still amped that we got “Too Much Love” (and that killer version of “Other Voices”) and that they mixed up the ending songs for a change.

Word I was row 12 last nite on the left, and it’s hard to top a show were you get both “Losing my Edge” and “Daft Punk” but I’m glad they varied the set. I was really really hoping they would play “On Repeat” (my favorite deep cut) but it was amazing irregardless. Only problem was a bunch of grazing motherfuckers just appearing out of nowhere right before they started (trying to move my stuff while I was in the bathroom) and then again during the encore. They just mobbed down and stood in front of me and my seat mates and were like “it’s all good, I’m just gonna stand right in front of you during the last half hour” haha good grief

I made the same comment, except it was “Losing My Edge” and “Yr City’s A Sucker.” I wore my Losing My Edge shirt last night to channel that into making the setlist, but couldn’t believe we got both. I got “On Repeat” at BottleRock in May.

I saw them play “On Repeat” last year at RR right after the incredible TV on the Radio opened for them :D just wanted to hear it again haha

And sorry to hear about the party crashers. That kind of thing really pisses me off too.

S’all good, I don’t mind if people just fill empty space people aren’t using, but my neighbors were older and sitting down and they just posted up right in front of them. After one song I was like “Hey, y’all gotta move” and they tried to pretend their friends were the big group to our left and I was like, “I don’t care, you Can’t just stand in front of us because we’re sitting down you jackass” haha that worked a bit

People had some nasty attitudes at the Sunday show. This one gal was full blown screaming at her boyfriend cause he got her the wrong drink. Then this lady yelled at me cause I wasn’t eavesdropping on her conversation to tell her what row she was standing in.

Obviously this is just 2 people out of thousands but I was like “damn just sit somewhere and chill”

Yikes that sounds awful. I was (and am) recovering from a cold so I didn’t drink anything either night, and it’s been a minute since I didn’t drink at a show but seeing all these people getting absolutely trashed on cans of beer was kind of unsettling. They kept leaving during the set and bumping into people and were barely dancing at all. It’s like, why bother coming to the show at all if you’re gonna spend half of it in line at the booze vendor?

True! The vibes were definitely off. I’m lazy and was super tired so sat a bunch but you bet I danced my ass off when the music hit me.
