RIDE terminal 5 new york 6.4.2015

setlist by album (not in order)

smile: like a daydream, chelsea girl, drive blind (with noise break)
nowhere: seagull, polar bear, vapour trail, taste, paralyzed, dreams burn down
going blank again: leave them all behind, ox4, twisterella, mousetrap, chrome waves, time of her time, cool your boots
today forever EP: sennen
tarantula: black nite crash
carnival of light: natural grace

cover during encore: tomorrow never knows (beatles)

perfect time (played monday nite) was replaced with natural grace. ironically enough the sound at this show was 10x better than monday nite.

songs not played which i request for september: all i can see, furthest sense, close my eyes, unfamiliar, here and now, today, grasshopper, crown of creation, magical spring, making judy smile.

see you in september.

rock n rolllll [guitar riff] never looked so beautiful.
Semi Precious Weapons last night at Galapagos Brooklyn [main room] plus k3nyon DJing!

autodrone was originally the only band on the bill i cared to see, based alone on songs posted on webby. ironically enough, autodrone was unavailable and Brooklyn's Semi Precious Weapons ended up setting the night on fire with late '70s punk rock n roll breaking the law with Diamond Nights, a glammed-up Ima Robot and a hard rocking Placebo. photos are mine from last nite but my camera battery power was lost (mainly on me stupidly taking photos of myself with flash), so the video is from another SPW gig (recorded by user wwwhatsup at youtube). the band was f-ing great, the only thing is that it's unclear whether the singer is completely serious or putting on an act. maybe a little of both? you decide. either way i'd be surprised if they aren't headlining venues the size of Bowery Ballroom or bigger within the year. -k3nyon
