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...



i just want you to know that i think your detail is super and i thank you for all the time that you put in it...we were unable to go so again thanks for the cliff notes and we will be up to date ready to rock next sunday! you rule....
maybe the sun will shine today...
the clouds will roll away..
maybe i wont be so afraid..
i will understand that everything has its plan...
either way...

Show was indeed recorded via the means of both audio and video. So thanks to Fitz and Ken, respectively.

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".

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.


: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:

If Tim is on John Lennon vocals and Sean is on Paul McCartney vocals, am i led to believe that Ron is on George Harrison vocals?

And would that leave Adrian to fill Ringo\'s tunes?
