Why are Pulp so unpopular now?

it's as distinct from the mid-atlantic as it is from new england though! sorry i don't know why i keep talking about this.

yeah i don't know why it matters to me, either, but it does. western new york is more like the midwest, anyway, but new york is like pennsylvania imo. mid-atlantic.

aaaaaanyway, pulp

All I know is that it is technically classified as mid-Atlantic and definitely not part of New England. This was like middle school social studies basics guys. It doesn't really matter though. Anyway - Pulp! Best show I've ever been to probably. I want to see them again now.

lol x-post

Seeing them Tuesday :).

You will love it. We danced pretty much the entire time.

I haven't seen them since they opened for Blur, looking forward to it.

Oh that was good.

Yes it was.

Setlist!

"Do You Remember the First Time?"
"Monday Mornings"
"Razzmatazz"
"Live Bed Show"
"Disco 2000"
"Sorted for E's and Wizz"
"His 'n' Hers"
"Dishes"
"Mile End"
"Like a Friend"
"Babies"
"This is Hardcore"
"Sunrise"
"Bar Italia"
"Common People"

1st encore: "OU"
"Bad Cover Version"
"Mis-Shapes"

2nd encore: "Back in LA"
"Something Changed"

need to add "Help the Aged," but may strike a little close now.

god i'm so jealous at the west coast set lists i can't even deal!!! we basically just got the entirety of "different class" with a few other things from later albums. they better play more old stuff when i see them in spain!

Back In LA? wow.

YOU GOT OU? OH YOU ARE GOING DOWN, RAGGETT.

Seriously though that's super awesome and I am glad you had fun!

(Notices and adores her inadvertent OU/OH YOU wordplay)

Hahah. I KNEW some of those choices would inspire, how you say, jealousy...

And yeah -- a super long droney great version of "OU" -- and I still can't believe they did "Back in LA!" Imagine Jarvis on megaphone and the band making a huge racket -- if you had told me early Blur essentially ripped them off just from this I wouldn't've been surprised.

Yah, I saw them three times last year and still green looking at that.

Unrelatedly, I found myself in Bar Italia a few weeks ago. It's pretty great.

Oh and I forgot to mention: at one point, Jarvis doing an a capella (falsetto!) version of the chorus of Tina Turner's "Steamy Windows." Never in a million years etc. (Does make me think he would be a perfect dude for karaoke.)

Hahahaha! We got a little bit of Louie Louie which was fun.

Oh also, best T-shirt by a mile that night was some guy wearing a Suede shirt, classic logo and all -- on closer inspection, the small type above it was not 'The London' or any of that nonsense, it was 'Bernard Butler-era'

omg i want that shirt!! haha

My review is up!
