Notes (from 5H):
An absolutely amazing show. Following 'Even Flow,' some people about 15 rows back hold up a large banner reading, "We're so sorry, Hope you're okay." Ed spies it, comes to the front of the stage to get a better view and then puts his hand over his heart before returning to the mic, saying, "Thank you, what an extraordinary welcome, thank you."
Lyrics to 'Untitled' are changed to "I can be there in 33 minutes or so ..." likely a reference to Boston Celtic's Larry Bird (#33). Another reference during 'Habit': "Speaking as a child who knows who John Havlicek was ...". Stone completely messes up the intro to 'Sleight' and then as "our punishment" (referring to the crowd's reaction) he later "has" to play 'Mankind.' Ed makes reference to being together ten years in October but with a smile put things in perspective by saying that next year Sonic Youth have been together for 20 years (Kim Gordon suffered terrible equipment problems during their warmup set). Mike actually smashes his guitar up again tonight during 'Porch' and hands it to some young kids at the front [family of Sweeney (PJ security)], and Ed gives them some picks as well :)
Ed says that this is the liveliest crowd since Europe, prefacing it with, "You'll have to check the bootlegs to be sure." 'Patriot' gets messy with the crowd clapping so much. Ed stops and nods his head in rhythm with the clapping for a bit and then picks the song back up. A guy in a cow suit comes to the front of the stage (prompting a comment before 'Crazy Mary': "We don't usually play this song except when there's a dancing cow." He asks, "Do you come to all the shows like that or just ours?" [Note: this guy goes to pretty much every show at this venue and gets pointed out at every show.] Ed passes a cigarette to someone front row during 'Sleight,' gives away his tambourine after 'Mankind', and someone passes Ed a Rolling Stones Altamont show tape. He says that people should use the power of the vote, if not to get Nader elected but to broaden the discussion wider to three guys. Through Ed's whole election year speech, 'Release' riffs are played. He says he is only talking about the election and Nader because "you're such a highly intelligent crowd. We won't even bring it up in Philly (then slyly trails off with) ... but we might."
Second encore begins (likely intended to finish with 'YL' but there seems to be a last minute decision to play out with 'Fuckin' Up' with Mike going crazy. Mike tags some of Aerosmith's 'Sick As A Dog' into the 'YL' solo and Ed takes more Polaroids. Seemingly a show that was never going to end with the band in such a good mood. 'Soon Forget' is on the setlist instead of 'YL' but is not played.
