Notes (from 5H):
After 'Evacuation,' Ed says the song was written by Matt, and that drummers usually don't like the singer, hence the reason for it being so hard to sing ... "Of course, I wrote the lyrics, so maybe I just don't like myself." "It's nice to be in North Carolina; it's been all of two days but it seems like two years." The 'Daughter' tag is read from Ed's notebook so is likely an improv. ("I wish I could ride the tide that leads to the state of normalcy. I wish, I wish, I wish that I could light the path, I wish that I could light the path to keep you from the danger.")
In 'Wishlist,' Ed changes the lyrics to "15 million hands upraised in North Carolina." After forgetting two consecutive "I wish I was...." lines, he says, "I'll get the next one!" Ed says, "Here's one we haven't played in quite a while ... so with a sip of some liquid courage, we'll try it," and he takes a swig from his wine bottle and they launch into 'In My Tree.'
'Rearviewmirror' is extended, powerful and awesome. Ed tosses his guitar 10-15 feet in the air and carefully catches it. After 'Light Years,' Ed requests that the houselights be turned on, and he points out a guy in the front who's been holding up a tape recorder for the whole show. Ed then tells him that the next song is a romantic song, and he'll need both hands so he can put his arm around his girlfriend, so why doesn't he put the tape recorder up on the stage. Ed takes the recorder, speaking into it (much like he did during several 98 shows) and places it next to his microphone, before launching into a FULL, complete version of 'Crazy Mary.' He later mocks the guy for thinking that the band would give the recorder back, providing much comic relief and the recorder is returned before the first encore. ;)
Ed breaks two strings during 'Breakerfall' and ends the song by ripping the other four off, seemingly close to smashing it! Before 'Soon Forget,' Ed is rambling about how he's not good at math, but he hears they are in North Carolina, and he'd like to say "thank you" with the absolute value brackets around it. He also says that he hopes he can get through the song without fucking up, and asks the audience NOT to clap, but still ends up messing up the song in exactly the same place he did in Bellingham (on the 'Light Years' b-side).
A "full-on" show including Matt breaking a giant crash cymbal and Mike tossing out a big handful of Stone's picks with "Mike" written on the back with a black marker! A teenage boy in a wheelchair with an oxygen mask was brought to the back of the stage with his mother. Ed went over to him a few times and touched him and hugged the mom, gave him some things and Matt gave him some drumsticks. It was very moving.
