well, soundcheck anyway:
pb soundcheck 12-31-03

carnevil 9*, auld lang syne*, Vera st.,Carevil 9, ...^

Set 1: Mayfly Disarray,  [...]

sorry kiddies, thats where i left :(
*These two songs were played over an hour earlier than the rest of soundcheck, and were instrumental. They were played right after the band had set up but before Toads crew was ready.
^This was the new song first played tonight. Adrien told me the name, but I forgot.
Vera St. was sound checked with acoustic guitarist from Bunji also. Carevil 9 is an Emerson Lake and Palmer song (welcome back my friends/to the show that never ends), first time played.
someone else can post the rest of the setlist. hope everyone had a great show and remember I was already back in work when you were just starting to think of going to sleep, you bastards. hahaha

Whoa whoa whoa!  What is that?  Archivist is SLACKING!  Way to blow it on NYE!  Couldn\'t hang with the 3 hour set, eh Pec?  Clearly he\'s lost a step.  And what were you keeping the setlist on that you lost it...a napkin?  Don\'t you usually email it to yourself in real time by hooking the cell phone into the palm pilot, then back it up on the laptop by speaking it into the audience mics?  If this happens again you\'re canned.

Wow, what a night.  Got home at 11am on no sleep!  The show was a lot of fun.  The musical highlight of the night was the two new tunes.  Both Madness and Dimension 5 are songs that fill in new niches for the band.  Each song can be used to create moods and levels that were previously unavailable, which is a great sign.  As with all new songs, it will take about 4-5 live playings before the set placement and live accentuations are hammered down.  I look forward to hearing these again.  Second set was an Iron Fan endurance contest, especially when combined with the 40 minute encore.  All in all it was about 3.5 straight hours.  Funk was decent as the last song before midnight, though I might have preferred to see Attraction stretch out into this spot.  TONT was a great call for the NYE song.  Everyone was totally rompin\'.  There is no other PB song or cover right now that I would have picked over TONT to fill this spot.  See the Light had a really cool lead-in jam.  The inverted version is pretty cool!   The drum solo in Moby Dick was one of the all-time greats.  There were 3 distinct lives to it.  The first was a fast-paced toms rally with a steady jungle beat behind it.  Then he kept this going while switching to the handdrum.  Finally, there was the roof-shattering blur of methodical berzerkitude.   Rufus was the best jam of the night hands-down...I can\'t believe they had the energy to rage this song out that deep into the night.  Wait, no, I can believe it.  Overall a very strong showing from the band.

Great to meet kindms, realisthis, and bluefunkbhudda.  (First names withheld, though I do remember them)  Also nice to re-meet a lot of people I haven\'t seen in a long time, particularly some Hollis people.      

The post-show hotel was a lot of fun.  Thanks to Mark and Evelyn for so graciously sacrificing an evening of hot New Year\'s love so that a bunch of plastered PB hooligans could party in their room until sunlight.  Genius Of The Year award was locked up about 3 hours into the year by Todd for setting off the hotel fire alarm and getting the entire New Haven Fire Deparment sent to the hotel by smoking a bowl in the elevator.  Who brought the smart kids?  PB, of course!

Thanks to all for a great evening, see you in 2004!

What a time to get the **** flu!  $50 (three tickets) wasted and I didn\'t even get to see the damn show.  I\'m the one who mentioned "Karn Evil 9" (in some other thread) and they have to go and play it while I\'m lying on my couch coughing up a lung.  Not that I\'m bitter, it\'s just that... actually, screw it, in this case I am bitter. :) Sounds like it was a blast.  I\'ll see you all on Wednesday at Tim\'s next acoustic show.
