According to someone on another board they played 39 minutes, which isn't long but they can fit a lot of songs in 39 minutes.

Well, I mean...those are still the same songs. They weren't reworked, just re-recorded.

Anddd, there are no demos of these new songs released, so the only thing we're hearing are the live recordings. When I heard some of the new wave songs live, I was like, "it's alright." but then the record came out, and it was like, "okay, these are so much better than what I heard."

That's what I was referring to.
I am pumped to hear these recordings.

This is probably the one album I definitely want to hear the demos, because I know they have demos with Warren playing drums, and it not to hate on George but I would just love to compare the difference.

The CDs you gave me were great! A million thank yous.

I had brought only one CD with me, "Emilyn Brodsky's Greatest Tits", and Ian burned me some CDs and let me take the pick out of his CD case. Very outstanding!

I didn't get to Frank Turner or Brian Boitano yet, but that Mr. Burgess shit was hilarious!

I listened to Frank Turner and I generally liked it. Thanks!

To answer questions, I don't think they changed white crosses but not sure, Vicious will know. I don't know the first version of Rice and Bread so I can't answer that one Davy...

White Crosses was changed a little bit, but only for the better. I don't think any of the lyrics changed, I just know that building intense feeling it has only got more built and intense this time.

Show was awesome! Boca Fiesta was awesome! I had an ostrich taco and a alligator burrito!

Didn't play Girl I Used to Love, so that was a bummer, but I really dig all the new stuff. I think they did one cover, lyric was something like "standing there with a lit cigarette" at the beginning. Anyone know what song that is?

Hanging out with Ian was awesome! All the kids that were totally bummed because it was all new songs were hilarious. Anyone that didn't know it's not the Crime/RAR era any longer should get with the times and move on.

I'd like to ad that I don't get the philosophy behind "secret" shows. I mean I get if it is at Atom's house and we don't want cops breaking it up or something, but to have it at a venue and planned in advance is kinda weird. I sure did appreciate the $5 ticket price after paying for all that gas though. Shortly after I got in the venue Tom and I saw each other and the first thing he said was, "did you see I put you on the list?" So I guess that was $5 I didn't need to spend.

Andrew made the flyer for the show. It's pretty bitchin' and I will scan and upload it at school tomorrow. TEEN WOLF. Haha. I told him about Jordan Buckley's tour poster for ETID's recent tour of England having the American Werewolf theme on it.

Since I know everyone was dying to know, I asked Andrew about the footage Justin shot at the 1231 house show. He said he thinks Tom has it, and will track it down for me and either dub me a copy or upload it.

All the songs sounded super tight. As previously mentioned some were largely different from the SE small venue tour sound.

Someone had posted that AM!'s demos were never as good as the cuts that go on the albums. What are you smoking? The stolen demo is 10x great than the cuts that went on SFAFC, and with that said, SFAFC is prolly one of my fav AM! albums. I'm glad that the small venue tour was so thoroughly recorded though, now we can have at least 2 versions of each song.

Oh yeah, and for all those that love this sort of arcane knowledge: last night wasn't AM!'s first show with George. Last Tuesday after practicing they stopped at a bar near their practice space. They were having some sort of open mic jam band thing and got up there and played White Crosses and Rapid D (I think those are the songs I was told). There were like 10 rednecks in the audience and when they were done playing they told AM! that they were "pretty good. Y'all sound like the Sex Pistols." Fucking hilarious.

Averkiou was awesome! I got my dance on with some chicks that Ian and I met there and it was a lot of fun.

I ended up crashing at 1231 house again. Thanks Atom and crew!

poz for you my friend. Thanks for this write up, I totally agree with you.

No tears from these eyes, but I think I know which one it was.
