I'm planning on attending. Just to be clear, are we thinking that Spencer is playing at 5 in Portland with AFA and then driving down to this show??

That would be real tough. I just got word from a girl who runs all the Alive at 5 events that Pete will be on first. So AFA will be done close to 8 and it's at least 2.5-3 hour trip down to RI. That puts him at about 11. I guess he'll play with AFA? Maybe someone will fill in at RI

I just called Newport Blues and this show is happening, so I'm going to head over. Hopefully Spence will be there too.

Definitely interested to hear how it goes down and what it sounds like without Spencer if he doesn't show. Have fun!

I'll fill in for him. I can't play keyboard, or anything really, but I'll give it my best.

Spencer rolled in with his synth around 11, just as they were setting up the stage. Ryan was the no-show, a guy named Lucas filled in for him quite capably. Full string section on a relatively small and crowded stage. Pretty cool venue, more of a restaurant/lounge set-up. Good-sized crowd, with lots of dancing. I spotted one Viva-era t-shirt.
Will post audio when I get it cut up.
Set:
Rock Like War
Oxygen>
Carsick
History Crush
Hardest Way Possible
Sector Z
Combustible
Crash Landing
Sugarcoat
Carnival
Troublesome
C'Mon>
Gas On Skin
Light at the End
encore:
Love Underground
Smokashmir
Happy
Letter to the President (Gutter, Albee, Ward, joined by Noyes at end)

Audio here: www.archive.org/details/ro2008-07-10A few loud voices near the mic. Someone shouts for Darryl during the encore. Some enjoyable "crowd participation" during Letter to the President. |
