wow
tomas

I didn't know how to stop you from roaming about in that jumper with that anxious look on your face either. I was pretty sure it was but you were so good-looking and young that it was impressive for the regular, 36 years-old man I grew to become.
Saw you later in the Zénith with a bunch of 3-4 guys by the sandwich salesman.
I actually met someone from the board, a nice fellow from Italy, diamondsea.

I had to split my time between him and people I already knew.

Hope you got to see the band after the show, man !

The Dinosaur set was really short, which puzzled us.
Lee sang on Little Fury Things (which came third); they played Forget the Swan, Freak Scene, Straight to your Heart (diamondsea told me it was a new one), and they ended with SludgeFeast if I'm right.
No encores.

The setlist is probably incorrect, as I wouldn't swear the titles were played in the following order :
Candle opened for sure, then came
Reena (sure),
Incinerate (sure),
a great version of Skip Tracer (sure)
Then the band played
What a Waste (probably 5th)...
Rapture...
Turquoise Boy...
100%...
Rats (Thurston on bass)...
a beautiful version of Jams Run Free with Kim dancing around - she danced a lot during her songs - in a lovely golden dress...
World Looks Red (wow!)...
Pink Steam (near the end).
Encore # 1 :
The Neutral (Mark seemed to appreciate playing this one very much),
Teenage Riot (a wonderful version of it)
Encore # 2 :
Lights Out (still in my head),
Shaking Hell (very good, as said above).

Steve Shelley had eaten Dave Grohl before the show, he pounded the drums like noone. Excellent.

A great night.

Gotta wake up to go to work in 4 hours.

See ya.

Sorry to have missed you Tomas.
Sorry I had to go so soon, diamond.
