by the end of the night most of the bar was up at the stage singing and dancing.  Old folks, young kids, wookies and squares standing elbow to elbow belting out the songs word for word.  The arrangements, the harmonies all sounded great.  Listing highlights would just involve retyping the setlist.

I\'m hoping that this was taped and will be available to DL somewhere (you know, for those of us that don\'t live in CT or aren\'t able to drive 2-3 states to make a show).

Me too...

Does the setlist really need to be written this way? It seems a bit ridiculous to me. Can\'t people look up who wrote the songs, what albums they were on, etc., should they so desire? This setlist gives me a headache just looking at it.

it is a pretty busy setlist... but props to the researcher/executer of such a project!!

last night was absolutely awesome. a totally random mix of people, all united by the beatles. the guys were *fantastic* and exceeded even my highest expectations. i will certainly be back next week, and my mom probably will too ! (she had a BLAST!)  :)

joc, i disagree. i think the setlist is very informative. even if i so desired to look up all this info, i would never have the time. so thanks, pitchy.

I definitely think the setlist is very confusing at first glance, but it was very well organized for the amount of information he was trying to get in there. A great night of music on polar sides of the spectrum going from this sit down beatles singalong with kids and old beatles fans alike to the insanity that is gogol bordello. Was not fun getting up at 3am for work however. ugh.

We will not be able to make the next three Sundays, but we will be back for the finale.  If you get a chance to make one or all of these I highly recommend it.  Everything about the evening was great.  Nice size crowd, the sound was very good, and the food is always a treat.  Spread the word!!!!!

Chris thanks for the setlist.

setlist is very clean and organized, but i do think its a little over the top with the amount of information given.  for example, i dont really think it needs to be noted who sings lead/etc in each song.

with that said...this looks incredible...i cant wait to hear it

Regarding last night\'s setlist and the way it was constructed, obviously, it\'s imperative that we know who played what instruments and who sang lead on each song.

Of course, I went the extra kilometer with my notes regarding the covers and anthology songs. However, considering the nature of this project and how it encompasses all the music recorded by The Beatles, I felt it was prudent (Dear Prudent?) to not only distinguish the songs they didn\'t write, but also the ones which are not part of their proper discography.

And sure enough, as I was putting it all together last night, I knew somebody was going to say something about the way the setlist looked, yet I proceeded anyway. A once-in-a-lifetime concert merits a once-in-a-lifetime setlist. I mean, if three guys can learn 220 songs, surely we can follow an * from the top of the screen to the bottom, can\'t we?

Anyway, you\'re welcome.

Pitch


Meanwhile, back at the show...

Nice documenting Pitch.

What I really enjoyed seeing last night:  older folks who know nothing about the breakfast, losing their shit over the talent on that stage.

At one point I heard this guy on his cellphone:  "Yeah, we just walked into this place in Milford called Daniel Street and it\'s fucking awesome, you got to come down".

:lol: yeah - for us, going from the Neville Bros @ gotv, to the Beatles at Daniel Street, to Gogol Bordello at Toad\'s was indeed a weird mix.  Btw, Paul, you were so right when describing gogol\'s sound, too -- I think you said it was "a mixture of pirate music, accordion, and distorted yelling." I\'d never heard of "gypsy punk" before, but it was definitely a lot of fun! ;)

yeah..one man who i was talking to at the bar just ended up at daniel st after seeing the a-z poster the day before the show and couldn\'t get over the guys\' performance. he said that he\'ll probably be back every sunday in august and wants to check out the breakfast when they play there on the 15th!

i wussed out.  wish i hadn\'t, i\'d have probably made it back to boston before they closed two lanes on 91 and two lanes on 84, causing me to sit in 82 minutes of traffic on i84. i didn\'t time the first one cause i cut around a lot of it...

but yeah, note to all of you, apparently this is going on for months late night in CT

yea, there\'s a lot of construction in ct right now. They\'re working in downtown new haven as well, which with one way streets can make for some very long slow detours, not to mention taking away many parking spots. Say around bar, when you\'re trying to get to a timmy show. :banghead:

From the write up in the new haven advocate, I came to understand that the vocal parts would not be set in stone, rather they would be worked out from song to song.

Post by: SlimPickens on August 05, 2008, 12:03:22 pm
There is definitely no set in stone correlation between beatle and beatle a - z singer.

I think it came down to:

(a + b) / c

a = who wanted to sing which songs
b = who could sing the songs that nobody wanted to sing
c = could those not singing lead, handle the harmonies
