Here is the Old 97's set list for the first show on their summer tour spectacle (show was at Mississippi Nights in St. Louis)
1. Rollerskate Skinny
2. The Other Shoe
3. Who actually keeps set lists for the entire concert? The same people who take pictures of the band - thus blinding them by the flashbulb - and the same people who wear t-shirts of other bands, thus proving their diverse taste in music to total strangers!!
4. Some other songs were: Big Brown Eyes, Barrier Reef, Mama Tried, Question, Valentine, Four-Leaf Clover, Jagged, that Heaven song from the last album
5. I've stopped the set list but here are some other observations: I wish they had played some more songs off the new album - (they only played 3) because as much as I love the band (and I almost started crying during their first song) I've heard some of those songs 1,000 times, plus the new stuff sounded really good
6. but you can't play new stuff because people tune it out and bump into me on their way to get a Budweiser (this being St. Louis)
7. let's just say that the Old 97's and their fans are getting maybe a little older and this is actually a good thing - a perfect concert crowd has a 20% hipster total - anything more and the whole thing is ruined - just ask Chris Carrabba lord of the hipster
