Setlist was the same, crowd was so small the back of the arena was draped with a black cloth. Either they hadn't sold those seats, or they moved the people that were there. A lot of people were sitting down on the sides. The only real enthusiam was on the floor. Probably cause they let you go up to the catwalk..YAY!! :-) Paul messed up pretty bad on WATC. Not sure what he was doing. I thought for a second he paused to let the crowd sing, but I think he just forgot was he was singing..DOH! Anyways..y'all have me worried about the weather in Cleveland, so I'm off to weather.com. God, I hope there's no ICE. I'm from S.C.. I can't handle no damn ice and snow in the SPRING! Lordy..;-)
Paul also messed up badly at the end of AOBTD. He just forgot to sing the end of the song. Spike was frantically pointing at him but he did not seem to notice. WATC was a major fuck up. Once Paul realized that he had no idea where he was in the song he started to improvise. Eventually, after what seemed like an eternity he managed to finish the song. As Erin said, the crowd sucked, but the band sounded great. Under Pressue was well done, but Brian does not need to try and hit the high notes :-)

I definately enjoyed the show. The crowd was just kinda lame. I would not say that any song got a huge reaction. Certainly not anything like the crowd reaction in Duluth.

I have a feeling that Cleveland will rock... Onwards...

Might be why they didn't do an extra long version of All Right Now...like they did in Jacksonville and Duluth and probably most all of the other dates..:-P
we had a great time at the Pittsburgh show, but yeah Paul missed on AOBTD and WATC. Brian tore up on the solos for FBG; Danny and Jamie were jumping around the drum riser while Paul hung out with Spike, and Brian went to the catwalk for a solo. "Take Love" had a good response. Dragon Attack seemed a little mechanical. John's just got a slice of real funk is all. Paul did more improv with the crowd than NJ. Under Pressure went "goodly," my favorite bit of the night other than Last Horizon. Jamie did awesome on The Show Must Go On. Paul actually wore Steelers' colors for a while-- gold A-top, dark slacks, white shirt. The smoke machines & flashpots on IWTBF and the guitar solo were awesome! Thanks guys see yas in Cleveland :)

I thought it was great, I noticed the mess up an the end of AOBTD, but we are the champions was fine, i liked the improv during that. The whole show was spectaular, but the lack of attendence was due to poor promotion and ticket prices. I managed to somehow (i dont know how) get Pauls autograph and after a long discussion, managed to get the setlist from the mixing desk. AND was invited to play at the Breakthru convention this august. I could carless on peoples opinions, last night was the greatest night of my life.

We went to the mixing desk and just asked for the setlist and they just gave us one. It looked like they had several copies of it there.

Seriously about the setlist?

I am snowed in here Erin! I haven't been outside yet this am so I'm not sure how much ice is out there. You all please be careful.

Cleveland will kick ass, trust me.
Wo ist das kamerahhhhhhhhhhh!!! NJ!!!
yeah, he seemed to give me a hard time before the show, they did i think they had like 3 copies or whatever. When I asked for it he said "if you have a girl friend", but He was kidding then He gave it and I got the last copy!

We checked out the weather, I think we will be ok. It looks like the worst of that weather is going to miss Cleveland.

They had multiple copies of the setlist sitting at the soundboard.
