    saw them at the club in my town back in 2007 during the residency. seeing Jimmy up close in a small venue is an amazing experience.

    Agreed. his voice sounds excellent in this setting...
    like I said before, I preferred these type shows to the Manson tour shows I saw last year.

    Anyone see the setlists for the first few shows? I'm really happy with them so far, looking forward to Toronto.
    And James Iha went up and played like half the concert with them in LA! The real James Iha! I was so happy. And Billy apparently sang happy birthday to him which was great to hear. Always happy to hear when people can mend their relationships

    Excellent setlists. very different from last year's shows.
    good to see James back even if for one show.

    Got tickets to the Beacon on April 6th, I haven't seen them since Lollapalooza 94 at Randall's island. Times goes by quickly.

    I doubt D'Arcy would have anything to do with it. she's a recluse now, and pretty sure she hates BC. Although, I thought BC and JI hated each other too.
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    if D'arcy ever came back... hell would truly freeze over...
    but stranger things have happened.

    I believe she had spoken to billy more recently than James but obviously that is in doubt after James came on stage with them

    Really impressed with the show last night. They all sounded amazing and Billy actually spoke to the crowd, played along with them, and even hi-fived some people walking around at the end of it. Sitting right over top of Jimmy was an amazing experience for me, I was the closest person to him. Liz Phair was pretty good too!
    Much better than last year's tour, the intimate setting does make a huge difference
  • Anybody else seeing them at the Ryman tomorrow night?

    I would have, but I got this scheduling conflict called PJ in Greenville.

    D'arcy isn't remarkable in anyway. Not sure why her presence in the band is so significant to fans. I'd rather have a great bassist than a familiar face who was unremarkable.

    If I'm being host, IMO this band lives and dies with BC. The downward trajectory has more to do with his songwriting not being as great as it used to be, but it just so happened to correlate with the the band reforming without half of the original members, so it was something obvious to point to as what was wrong, when actually it isn't.
