    Got to see them in Baltimore with Celebration. Both bands played a great show, kind of sad Celebration didn't get the credit they deserved from their hometown crowd. TVOTR played a great set mixing in the old with the new. Wish they would have played Second Song off the new album, one of my favorites.

    Still wondering why it's called Second Song...

    I wish they would play Stork and Owl. I've seen them 3 times and have yet to see this and it's my favorite song of theirs.

    Tried to search for the Baltimore setlist but they don't post their sets and no one seems to have it listed. My memory at shows sucks, get too into the show to remember things! I'm pretty sure they didn't play Stork and Owl though.

    I also didn't realize they hired the evil version of Lorenzo Lamos to play the trombone on tour...

    Good to hear Celebration pulled it together. Their Philly show was kind of a disaster.

    Just saw on FB their bass player just passed away from cancer at 34. Sad stuff, so young and right after the release of a great new album. R.I.P.

    RIP Gerard. I knew he wasn't touring but didn't realize it was that bad. Just one more reason cancer sucks, and there are unfortunately very many reasons.

    I may be biased, been a fan for quite a while. I think the improved PA System helped from the last time I saw them on their own.
