BillBrasky Kinda surprised there's been almost no mention of all the repeats from last year. It's like they took the best stuff from those two nights, jumbled it up, and called it good. I mean Stealing> Suzy in the same closing spot? FEFY, Gumbo, Gin? Wedge was basically in the same slot as well. Similar problems at Oak Mountain with a repeat Sand that didn't cover any new ground. And they are really wearing out Cavern on these southern venues. They played a great Chalkdust in Alpharetta, sure, but they played a great Chalkdust there last year as well. Hood was great though, right? Well, they played a strong Hood last year, too.

I had a great time on my run through the south. I was jumping and juking and screaming and shouting and clapping as much as anybody. But this shit is mystifying to me. The shortcomings in song selection are a jarring contrast to how well they are playing MOST of the time. I just wish they would take 5 minutes before the show to pull up last year's set list and give it a quick once-over. I would hate to think that they just don't give a fuck.
