these setlists sure look great. i hope when he tours with a band they'll be similar to these, and not mostly Honeycomb / FMRM material. no offense to Honeycomb for FMRM
It would be nice if he played other songs off Dog In The Sand. Bullet is definately not my fav one, I'll prefer The Swimmer, Dog In The Sand or Robert Onion. But he's the man.

You forgot The closing number "The Shrimp Song!" -not aborted the second time around!
I know they're not part of the tour per se, but worth keeping a note of the Cafe du Nord shows a few months back. A couple more FM/RM songs played then too (and far better versions, arguably!)
i really believed this tour would be dedicated to both Honeycomb/FastMan but i'm blown away by what's being played. even if the two "Nashville sound" records never existed, i couldn't wish for a more favourable selection of songs.
It's a bit of a surprize, especially that he's bothering to play Pixies songs. I would imagine that the non-solo dates will feature less early material/Pixies fare.
I disagree - i think FB at this point is comfortable playing songs from his whole catalog, and he will continue to pull from wherever he feels comfortable.. Pixies or no-Pixies.
I do think with a full band Frank doesn't have to please the crowd (if he ever does) because the noise generated would leave them with no choice but to listen. The amount of talking i've heard during his solo performances, you'd have to drop a few "hits" and "crowd pleasers" just to hold/grab their attention, the ungrateful lot.
There's more confidence to do what you want with amps turned upto 10 with the boys by your side than just shielded only by an acoustic.
Incredible, incredible night and show. Frank was beyond terrific, and the Beachcomber rules. It was an amazing opportunity to see this show.
Headache started the show; he dropped his pick after a few chords and then said he had to change gears
Los Angeles Mr. Grieves Song of the Shrimp Nadine Horrible Day Headache I Burn Today Bullet Western Star All My Ghosts The Swimmer Where is My Mind Wave of Mutilation Cactus Sing for Joy Kicked in the Taco 666 (a cappella) Sir Rockabye Massif Centrale Two Reelers Parry The Wind High, Low (I Wanna Live On A) Abstract Plain Fitzgerald (first 20 seconds; aborted - only FMRM offering) The Water Song Living on Soul Deadman's Curve Brackish Boy I'll Be Blue (encore)
Reid Paley opened and played I'm Not Dead (I'm in Pittsburgh) among his dozen or so songs. Paley was great.
ATBNG - you thought Paley was great? I couldnt get into him at all. I didnt know who it was until after his set, when I saw his name on the amp, and I couldnt believe it was him! But, I was also stuck outside the venue, right behind those big windows behind the stage, and so I couldn't hear his words too well. Luckily, a few cool dudes opened most of the windows for me before Frank's performance, so I could hear that perfectly. I actually had a pretty great view as well, a few people left their spot inside the venue to come watch with me outside.
The whole show was friggin great beyond words. That 'Ill be Blue' was one in a million, while Western Star, Two Reelers and Massif were all I needed, the rest waS just a bonus. I think the solo acoustic crown has now been passed from Dylan, to Neil, to our friend Frank.
I wrote down the setlist for the Beachcomber show as it progressed, so this is correct and in order (I think ATBNG confused "Adda Lee" for "Parry the Wind"):
01) Headache (aborted) 02) Los Angeles 03) Mr. Grieves 04) Horrible Day 05) Song of the Shrimp 06) Nadine 07) Bullet 08) Kicked in the Taco 09) Headache 10) Dead Man's Curve 11) The Water 12) Fitzgerald (aborted) 13) Western Star 14) Cactus 15) I Burn Today 16) Sir Rockaby 17) Six-Sixty-Six (acapella) 18) Where Is My Mind? 19) Adda Lee 20) Brackish Boy 21) The Swimmer 22) All My Ghosts 23) Wave of Mutilation 24) (I Want to Live on an) Abstract Plain 25) Living on Soul 26) Sing for Joy 27) Massif Centrale 28) Two Reelers 29) I'll Be Blue
Also, the date of the show should be changed to the 18th.
i was not remembering hearing parry the wind and i do remember adda lee, so that makes sense. thank you, i was thinking i had more 3 dolla pbr than i should have.
yep, 3 bucks. i must admit it would have been hard not to laugh at the crying lady, while feeling her pain at the same time, of course. 8 dollars is outrageous. i was happy to find something to drink under $5 and pbr is better than bud anyway. and i do mean bud the beer.
Attn Brokenface: Your confirmed setlist breakdown missed Superabound from the Salt Lake City Show (file under TOTY). I wonder if he really played it in an acoustic set?!?! I haven't seen it in any other setlists.
Also, it is odd that in the interview from Indy Music Scene, he mentions Devil's Workshop as one of his favorite recordings, yet no songs from that album on the tour thus far.
