Just checked today and the price is $26.08. Just checked Pop Market and they are up to $31.79 a piece. Yesterday they were like $23.58 or something. Import CDs was $23.XX and today $27.38. Glad I locked in my price but damn. I was hoping to see prices go ever so slightly down and in a day they jumped wildly pretty much in every place that they were available yesterday. As far as "retail retail" goes I mean. I haven't even checked the indie sites. Just a heads up, the prices cited in this post are back down to the first day levels. If you wanted to score these editions for these prices I'd jump on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what your financial or travel situation is but if you can get yourself to either the Oakland or LA show, I would do it and be able to remember the awesomeness on your deathbed.

I'm trying to remember the exact order of the songs. This was my first show in a long time and I was way out of practice because I usually manage to get a setlist from the band/stage after most shows and I completely forgot to even try this time. Here's what I have so far: Desert Ghost [PLAYBACK ON PA] Mescaline Eyes Payday Loans Big News Camera Shy The Shit Sisters Woolen Heirs Subtle Body Run It Through The Dog Horse Girl Angela’s Secret Red Line Season Ethric Double [ENCORE] Crazy Woman. Dirty Train Drinking From The Necks of The Ones You Love Does that seem right? I'm pretty sure I didn't miss any songs that were played. Its just the order that I'm fuzzy on for some.

You glorious bastard! My friend was also on Ryan's side for much of the show. My brother and I were on Brian's side all the way in the back by the door/bar/merch booth. The view and sound from back there was phenomenal. By the time Ethric Double started we moved right up in front by Brian and my brother got a psychotically awesome video of the second half of the song where Steve was going full Exorcist up on the subwoofer above us.

mcpherson123 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) And in case anyone was wondering, I did pickup Oxeneers and Easter at the Chicago show and the matrix etchings are different than the originals so these are in fact remastered. They are the black versions that they have for sale on tour. Edited June 18, 2022 by mcpherson123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can snatch a set list or just take note of the set somehow, that would be awesome but more than anything enjoy being in the moment. I was so ecstatic during the show. I just couldn't believe I was seeing them again after the '09 breakup. Plus they were absolutely on fire. Steve's performance was particularly noteworthy as he's the only band member who can really get away with any slop or drop off in the execution of his parts and has traditionally taken advantage of that at least more so toward the end of their first run as a band. He was seriously hitting the whole night on Thursday though. In many live shows he doesn't typically reach the pitch he has on the recordings but for most of the show he was performing at the same range as the recordings. It was killer.

xfactor675 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Do you guys like know the website called setlist.fm? 😂 I mean this sharing sets on a forum is cute and so '03 but just wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you like know that the way setlists are submitted to setlist.fm is NOT actually some sort of automatic NSA AI program that observes and records all human activity which then delivers band set information to each concert date listing for every band on Earth that has a listing on the setlist.fm server? The reason the setlist from the Chicago show is up right now is because Juan sent me the picture of an actual setlist from the show which I corroborated and added the unlisted second encore song because I was there and can confirm the performance. Literally the behavior you are dogging right now is why you can rely on there even being a setlist.fm with any information on it at all.

xfactor675 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) Wow you don't say it's not automated, like I don't know lol. Yet basically "every" show gets uploaded there with or without your personal contribution (which is highly appreciated) . Fun fact i also contribute there.

Smaller, more independent bands like TAAS definitely have way more gaps than full set contributions. So I'm not sure what you mean by "basically 'every' show gets uploaded there." Most of the bands I've seen that aren't enormous names that found success in the 90's or prior usually have more gaps than fully filled out set lists. The reason is because there are too few contributors and too little emphasis on archiving for bands that don't have huge fan bases so the likelihood and size of a collective memory to draw from to build the archive of those setlists is deeply reduced. So me and Juan collaborated to get the 6/16 TAAS set archived. Water is wet. The internet connects people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xfactor675 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) Yeah there are huge gaps for past shows obviously, as for newer shows I bet all TAAS reunion shows will be there eventually. P. S i really thought you don't knw the website. Didn't want to bw offensive or anything. sorry Edited June 18, 2022 by xfactor675 mcpherson123 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P. S i really thought you don't the website. Didn't want to bw offensive or anything. No problem, brother. We all obviously love TAAS and seeing them live and having their records on vinyl. We have a renewed interest and life for the band now and that's a beautiful thing for all of us. Not everyone can get to these 4 or 5 shows in the States but at least its happening. And I saw that they were filming the whole time from the soundboard at Lincoln Hall so maybe that will be released soon! Plus, with all the albums being repressed more of us have the opportunity to own those records and crank them. Its a celebration. Let's celebrate it. 😁 xfactor675 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 I will add this much to this. This Chicago show felt immensely more energetic…esp. Steve…than the two Seattle “final” shows I caught last year. It was as if they were re-energized. Not saying the Seattle shows were lame, quite the opposite & they killed it. But there was a different kind of magic in Chicago. And I’m thrilled that I was there to witness it. mcpherson123 and zaoza 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
