Ask and ye shall receive. More videos forthcoming.
For the sake of completeness on the wiki, I note that Jesss missed one song: Skullcrusher Mountain was between Shopvac and I Crush Everything.
Keebs gave a pretty good summary, I’ll just add a few personal notes:
1) I started standing in line at 4:45 with a couple other people (door opened at 7:30). They still had a few tickets at that point, but I think it ended up sold out. I had never been to the Mission Theater and wasn’t sure of the seating arrangement, so I didn’t mind being early. It’s worth it to be in the front row, even if Paul does pick on you and make you sing!
2) Paul and Storm were way better than I thought they were. I’d seen a few of their songs on youtube, but I don’t think it translated well. Brilliant!! And thanks for the delicious snack cake, guys…
3) It was cool to hear “When you Go.” Does he play that one live very often?
4) JoCo had trouble with lyrics a couple of times, most notably in I’m Your Moon. I think he was distracted by the woman in the crowd yelling out facts about Pluto, correcting his pronunciation of Charon, etc, before the song 🙂
5) I picked up the set list off the stage when it ended, which Mr. Coulton kindly signed for me after the show. Very cool…
