This is my first try at live-blogging from the Beacon, and my first try with this phone. If things don’t go perfectly, please accept my apologies in advance.
During the course of the evening I will do my best to update the setlist (including the VIP Soundcheck at 5:00PM). The blogging client I’m using on my phone seems to crash every time I try to include a picture, so I’m not hopeful that I’ll be able to include any during the show. When I get home (I live close to the venue) I’ll be sure to update this post to include some photos.
4:57pm – waiting in lobby while they do the real soundcheck…
5:14 – VIP Soundcheck Setlist
Warren has specifically said “bad karma will fall on anyone who leaks what we play now on the Internet”. And I don’t need any bad karma, so I’m respecting his wishes.
6:00pm stage dark
6:30pm @ Starbucks keeping warm, waiting for friends to arrive. The VIP soundcheck was interesting – it seemed to be an actual soundcheck, not a “mini-set” of pre-determened songs, which is what a lot of folks thought it would be.
8:07pm in the Beacon again, security decided to push the border of inappropriate on the way in
