Teenage Riot (short)

I'm not sure about the order but I think that about covers the songs played. It was a great show even though at the beginning I also thought it was a little lame to fill out a non-Daydream Nation show with nothing but Daydream Nation songs. Afterwards they mixed it up a little more, and just when I thought they weren't going to play any Rather Ripped stuff, they played two songs from that album. Very good songs/versions that made me think I should give that record some more spins and maybe reappraise it. They had to cut it short in the encores so they could only play a shortened version of Teenage Riot. I would have loved a noise blowout ending, but at festivals you can't always get what you want.
Thurston seemed a bit subdued and wasn't very talkative (I believe his only comment was 'feel the pain' somewhere between two songs). It was the first SY show I ever saw where Lee functioned as the main spokesman for the band. The sound was pretty good too, if a little loud. I didn't mind that during the concert, but the ringing in my ears did grow a little tiring after a couple of hours. I would have loved them to have played Sunday.
