Anybody want to car pool/ have an extra seat in their car they would exchange for a share of the gas money? I would offer to take people in my car, but the AC is not working, I don't want subject myself to that or spend the money for gas for the solo trip.

There are a bunch of videos up on YouTube of the show:

Lucinda
Innocent When You Dream (oh what I would have given to be swinging a pint during this song)
Jesus Gonna Be Here
Hoist That Rag

This isn't from the show, but it's been stuck in my head for days and it's amazing.
Lord I've Been Changed

Thanks for posting this (and the set list through e-mail).

What an awesome fun show!

I was directly behind you, Mr. Badr. Three rows back.

I have to admit that I was worried about not really enjoying this show since I haven't been into Waits as much lately, but while it was a rough start for me, about a third into the show, I realized it was worth the money.

The disco hat during eyeball kid was great.

Loved, loved, loved the disco hat. And whenever he stomped on the ground and steam rose up from the factory full of coal miners deep below the earth's surface. I loved the audinece singing along with "Innocent when you dream..."

Mr. Janik pointed out this gem: All Things Considered has the whole Atlanta concert up in one giant MP3
