    St. Paul and Chicago were shows 28-31 for me. Only heard a couple of new originals, but they were good ones I’d been chasing for a while- god’s dice and faithfull. Also heard some new covers, all of which I thought were great- wildflowers, brain damage, throw your arms around me, and street fighting man. Also heard a lot of songs that I really wanted to hear that I’d only heard once or twice before and/or hadn’t heard in a long time, including insignificance, LBC, go, off he goes, NAIS, last exit, I am mine, severed hand, in hiding, light years, in my tree, inside job, come back, tremor Christ, green disease, marker, immortality, deep, garden, and smile. Couldn’t have been happier with these shows! My only regret is I wish I could’ve made it to FTW to hear undone!

    maybe should note that fw1 had only one song performed that was written after 1998. old school.

    the texas run was shows 41-44 for me. only song i hadn't heard live before was undone. longest gap between shows for a song was 41- i hadn't heard thumbing my way since 2003.
