Notes
David Zollo and Will Kimbrough opened this show.
Todd's set includes the Nervous Wrecks: Will Kimbrough (guitar), Joe McLeary (drums), Joe Mariencheck (bass), and David Zollo (keys).
Before Hey Hey, Todd tells a story of a girl he used to live with across the road from the zoo in Atlanta. Eventually, after juggling his relationship and his tour, he was given an ultimatum by the girl and he chose to leave. As he says, he was in his "Bono phase." He goes on to say that he tells that story because he wants to "establish early on in the show that [he's] a complete fucking idiot. Cause later in the show [he's] gonna be jumping around and dancing like a complete fucking idiot.....As always, our shows are a celebration of complete stupidity."
Todd apologizes after playing You Think You Know Somebody: "Sorry about that...right next to Christmas."
My Generation, Part 2 referred to as "My Generation 90210." The story after My Generation, Part 2 is about Todd and Will sleeping after a night drinking and waking up to a guy in the house asking them if they "need a brew." When both guys decline, the unknown house guest walks out the front door -- neither Todd nor Will have any idea who he was.
