do you wanna be entertained?
Sleater-Kinney was superb tonite... shame on you if you missed it. Lots of new songs, but a healthy dose of the old stuff to balance everything out. The crowd was into it, the band seemed to be having a blast, and openers Viva Voce were great.
Corin Tucker
Carrie Brownstein
Janet Weiss
Anita Robinson of Viva Voce
Kevin Robinson of Viva Voce
the setlist: the Fox/O2/Wilderness/Jumpers/Get Up/Everything(?)/Modern Girl/Rollercoaster/What's Mine Is Yours/Steep Air/Step Aside/Let's Call It Love/Night Light/Entertain
encore: One More Hour/Sympathy/Oh!/You're No Rock n Roll Fun
Youth Decay was in there somewhere... but it's not on the setlist and I can't recall where exactly.
Finally, in non-S-K news, 3 more tracks have leaked from Fiona Apple's indefinitely postponed third album... download them: here
now playing: Fiona Apple - Not About Love

S-K were incredible. The new record, based on this show, is going to be fantastic.
I'm not a big fan of the new FA stuff you sent me. Where's Jon Brion's superb and unique production? I know he produced this record, but I don't hear it on these 3 songs (I do hear it on the title track, so there's hope!)
