Fan Recaps and Comments

Robot Parade:

Wonderful concert, my second show on 11/13 in a row. The Johns were very on their humor game this night; I was dying laughing half the show. I wasn't super excited about the Lincoln theme initially (rooting for Factory Showroom night 2!!) but I really warmed up to it by the end.

• Flansburgh spoke about how during the release of Lincoln, the band interacted with a publicist who was exactly like the character from Spinal Tap.
• JF was feeling under the weather before the show so the Johns started calling the concert the "John & John Shitty Hour."
• Flans must have also seen You Can See Everything recently because they were referencing it constantly throughout the night. During the spoken word bridge of Snowball in Hell (which was an absolute highlight of the night) it became a conversation between good friend of the band, according to the Johns, Ringo Starr and Elizabeth Holmes.
• Discussing the recent midterm elections and blue wave, JL mentioned that the results show the nation "hasn't gotten woke enough" before illuding to a forthcoming "Woke 2." This naturally devolved into a "Woke 3-D" chant that JF began before immediately regretted the abuse of power. He then came up with a hand sign for the Woke 3d movement.
• When Lie Still finished, JF hoisted the Stick up to the audience members from the balcony encircling the stage. He then proceeded to claim that the light the Stick tapped was "already squished when they got there."
• Immediately after the first song of set 2, there were technical difficulties with (I assume) Marty's in-ear monitors. Show went on without a hitch.
• At one point JF mentioned a Memphis show where a woman under the influence of LSD kept making a noise not unlike the Tim Allen dad speak "Aeoughhh" following every song. They also referenced the St. Louis show featuring the ardent fan holding up the bird through the full concert.
