| Start with two covers, three new tunes and then hit them with the classics. Perfect festival setlist! |

Consequence of Sound's review of sorts pissed me off:
quote:
Who are these old farts? Deities of alt and indie rock, and the fest’s second biggest legacy act draw.
Tip of the gen Xer-approved one-size-fits-all baseball hat to: Kim Shattuck, whose recent, sudden call-up to fill the shoes of the irreplaceable Kim Deal still hasn’t sunk in yet. Or it has, and she’s just a big grinner.
Over-enthusiastic, inebriated high-fives to… Riot Fest organizers, for knocking it out of the park by not only avoiding a Replacements overlap, but also expertly managing the crowd by placing the two on neighboring stages.
Two cold, stiff thumbs up to… the rain, for calling it quits at just the right time, just before Frank Black kicked off this exceptional set with covers of The Fall (“Big New Prinz”) and Jesus and Mary Chain (“Head On”).

New material performed: Three consecutive songs (“Indie Cindy”, “What Goes Boom”, and “Bagboy”), thankfully placed at the start of the set, and over within 10 minutes.
Someone’s been listening to Trompe Le Monde: Might explain the inclusion of “Subbacultcha” and “Distance Equals Rate Times Time”.
Riotous Scale [1-5 fists]: Three “Bone Machines”, two “Waves of Mutilation”, and a shot of “What Goes Boom”.
