    Few days late, but the Cleveland show was unreal. I've seen Glen 5 times, and that was the best out of all of them, and one of my favorite shows I've ever been to. The show was at a tiny church--fit about 500 I think--and it was drop-dead gorgeous. Ornate details, beautiful architecture, candles lit--it was jaw dropping. It was a pleasure that on the frigid day we saw him, the line to get in was indoors! Once we realized this, my group planted ourselves on line about an hour and a half before doors, and got seats (it was GA seated, such a wonderful decision) in the 3rd row. Lots of people wearing PJ gear there, which always puts a smile on my face (I was wearing my PJ beanie)! Glen's voice was immaculate as always, and his stories were top notch, as always. Basically you can't go wrong when it comes to one of his shows. He played just over 2 and a half hours all the way through, not a break at all. You could tell he was having a blast and was pleased with the venue and the crowd. Can't say enough about this show, it was incredibly special.

    Setlist for Cleveland:
    High Hope
    You Will Become
    Her Mercy
    Paying My Way
    Winning Streak
    Come Away to the Water
    Renata
    Leave
    McCormick's Wall
    Stay the Road
    Astral Weeks
    Maybe Not Tonight
    When Your Mind's Made Up
    Talking With the Wolves
    Wedding Ring
    Bird of Sorrow/Amazing Grace
    Grace Beneath the Pines
    Say It To Me Now
    Falling Slowly
    Song of Good Hope
    Hold on Magnolia
    Drive All Night
    The Parting Glass
    The Auld Triangle

    Through the frames 25 years, they've always been very lucky to work alongside some fantastic photographers and artists. It seemed like a good time to put together a songbook of 30 of our favourite songs, alongside images - many previously unseen - from their whole career. The tabulation pages were designed by Dunk Murphy to specifically reflect glens personal guitar fingering and a companion page accompanying each song has been selected by our very close artistic cohort David Cleary who himself has been around the band since way, way back in the day…..again, we hope you like it as much as we do…..
    We've only done a small run of these books and they will be available at the shows in July. If we have any left then we will sell them through the frames web store.

    Too bad the Frames aren't doing any U.S. shows.......I wonder when Glen's solo popularity in the U.S. will finally pave the way for The Frames to play larger venues here?

    Scored 1st row balcony side stage seats for my best friend for the San Fran show. It's her birthday next week so decided to surprise her. Just sent the ticket transfer email and can't wait for her to see it! :)

    Wish San Fran wasn't across the country for me, or I'd be right there with her at the show.

    Least I could do! She's there for a 10 month internship, making some $$ but not enough to splurge often, especially in a city as expensive as SF. I know she'd be so bummed to miss this show, so I couldn't let her!

    As for me, not sure where I'll be at the time. If I move back home, then yes, if not, no.
