That live shot rocks! Am I the only one who thinks that Tommy's harmonies add a great deal to "Love You in the Fall" and especially "Right to Arm Bears"?

Can't get any better than this....
(Unless of course Tommy & Paul set about writing and recording and touring, but for tonight I'll settle for a new batch of great songs.)

My 2 cents - seems logical that the "two songs" performed would be Love You In the Fall & Right to Arm Bears, as they're rockers and Tommy & Josh played on them. I just don't seem them getting on any stage to play those songs as a three piece. If only they had a friend/master guitarist/fellow alt powerpunkpop rocker that lived in the L.A. area. . . . Tommy Keene anyone? For what its worth, his own tour doesn't begin until Thurs 9/28.

"Lookin' Out Forever" & "The Ledge" -same chord structure, same theme. Must also mention "Garys Got A Boner", courtesy of Mr. Ted Nugent.
And that line stolen from the poet Tom Petty....

"Seein Her," "Stain Yer Blood" and "Far As I Know" all are shoulda woulda coulda been hits. Course Big Star never had a hit either....

Read somewhere that Paul's setup is somewhat spartan, but that he has plenty of tricks picked up over the years to get the most out of his studio. The sparse acoustic arrangements (i.e. Dirt to Mud) are straightforward enough, but the bigger electric songs are curious. Would love to know a few of his tricks, like how to get "As Far As I Know" on 8 tracks....

Wasn't that George Harrison on the solo in My Daydream?

I too was fortunate enough to catch this show. Amazing performance considering only three days of practice. Having seen Bash & Pop and Perfect twice, it was strange to see Tommy step to the side, without a mic, simply playing the role of bass rock star. Make no mistake, others rock, but Tommy is the only performer I've seen who bleeds rock & roll on par with Paul. And Michael B - simply the best drummer I've ever heard live. And you can tell he enjoys it, which is nice, there's no pretense. He & Tommy seemed to carry on quite well - when Tommy wasn't hamming it up for the fans, he was back by Michael's kick drum saying something or another, usually met by a smile from Michael. Several times as I saw the two locked in on a slammin' rythym, I thought to myself how that would sound behind High Time or Far As I Know....
As for the band - Dave & Dan seemed to genuinely enjoy being back on stage and ripped through the 90min or so set. The new songs from a forthcoming album due in March sounded particularly strong. A national tour is being arranged (wonder how Mr. Axl feels about that). Suffice to say that if SA was a decent band before, the addition of Michael & Tommy makes them a potentially great band.
