Talk:Shows/2000-11-23

My comment edited out of this page: "The theme for tonight's show was "Then and Now". All of the songs played were either brand new or pre-Flood. The two exceptions to this were Fingertips and Mammal." CapitalQ's comment: What about New York City, James K. Polk and Hypnotist of Ladies?

My answer: "James K. Polk" pre-dates "Flood" as does "Istanbul" (in case anyone was wondering). Mammal and Fingertips were introduced as "exceptions to the theme". As for the others (including "Particle Man"), I didn't want to start a discussion on the "front" page of this show but I'm pretty sure that the set list as it appears here isn't what they played. I'm positive "Hypnotist of Ladies" and "New York City" weren't played. Also, there were a couple of covers that Flans played (sort of half-heartedly) as a tribute to VH1-Classic which he mentioned as his latest obsession.

I guess my question is, is there some way to verify the setlists? I know on other show pages there are situations where the written setlist varies from the actual songs played. -DKC

One way to confirm the setlist for this show would be to contact one of the people who has a recording of it; see the show's page on db.etree.org. -CapitalQ ♫ talk ♪ 18:12, 22 Jun 2006 (MDT)

Just a note to say that I haven't forgotten about this. The people who have recordings of the shows are not as easy to get in touch with as they might seem. I've added some notes about the show from my memory, but I'm positive that there are issues with that setlist. -DKC --DKC 19:07, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
