GOOD LORD!! that was ridiculous!! It was SO loud!! But an amazing show though!! They had two drummers player it is was fucking awesome!!

They opened with Will You Smile Again from the new album World’s Apart, which blew my mind with the dual drummers. Like they were totally in-sync it was insane!! They played a good mixture of new and old stuff, with an awesome version of Caterwaul.

During a song from Madonna the guitarist just threw his guitar into the speaker, then picked it up again from the neck and swung it at the large ride on one of the drum kits, then picking it up AGAIN only to destroy it on the ground. It was nuts.

Show was wicked! photos shortly.

My ears are still ringing.

They played Claire de Lune, Another Morning Stoner, Days of Being Wild, Mistakes and Regrets, Totally Natural. . .oh man, it was better than I was expecting. Even the new songs were as loud as the old stuff. Absolutely crazy.

Note: My ears are still killing me.

Man, their energy on stage was just incredible, and I can't get over how crazy the whole two live drummers thing was. What with their new album being a shade mellower, I wasn't expecting them to still be so loud and hardcore. The didn't shy away from Source Tags and Madonnas more hardcore-like material. I kind of wish this show wouldn't have ended, but if it went on another hour, I'd probably be completely deaf.

They did A Perfect Teenhood. One of the highlights, I think. No Relative Ways, How Near How Far, Baudelaire, or Heart in the Hands of Matter. I really wanted to hear Heart because that's the one big ST&C song I haven't seen them do between the to times I've seen them.

A good bit of crowd singing, too, though it was difficult to tell with how loud the band was.

EDIT: I think seeing them perform a lot of the new stuff has made me warm up to the new album, too.
