Manchester Orchestra - A Black Mile to the Surface (July 28, 2017) Album • Page 235

I can't speak.

 

What a night.

 

They were louder than god. The loudest band ever

 

Good or bad

 

Any real weird/deep cuts?

 

It was the same setlist as the other shows, I believe. Only difference was that Andy came out alone and did “100 Dollars” as a second encore.

 

In the best way possible

 

This part was so sick

 

Aside from “The Alien” through “The Grocery,” which really was as amazing as I expected it to be, I was surprised by how much I loved the Simple Math songs. I love that album, but those songs become something else entirely live.

 

I agree with this, that album keeps growing on me more and more. It’s still under their other lps but I still think I love it. I love all of this bands material. Unrelated but Alice and the interiors came on last night and someone said it sounded like death cab and it really does haha

 

This band should have dropped Pale Black Eye and Simple Math from their setlist for Pride and another song from ILAV, like Where Have You Been or Alice And Interiors or Golden Ticket

 

I think the band should just play whatever they want. Andy obviously loves that album and they play the songs live well. Playing that older stuff all the time gets boring for them I’m sure.

 

They should've just played longer. The set time said they'd play till 11:45, they stopped like a half hour or twenty minutes short of that

 

Yeah, I was hoping for an extended encore. It was a great show, probably the best I’ve seen them, but there were easily five or six (or, like, ten or fifteen) songs I would have loved to hear them play.

 

I was very surprised they didn't play where have you been or wolves at night. They are an excellent live band though, gotta catch them more often. Their set made me think they should've just recorded cope live too like in Utero or something

 

Yeah well that album is not good and it surprises me that Pale Black Eye has remained in tbe setlist for years now. I'd be down to see Mighty and Apprehension, but, other than those two and Pensacola, I could not care less about those songs. When I sae them, I got an email from work during Pale Black Eye and it was the perfect time to respond to it.

 

Made it onto the MO Instagram lol

 

Pale Black Eye is a great song and absolutely deserves a spot in the setlist.

 

they should never drop Simple Math, that song is killer. One of my favs

 

But also, would love to see Pride.

 

I think pride is their most played song live. I’m glad they gave it a break, I saw them two years ago it seemed like they just wanted to get through it, it will be nice it they come back to it fresh later.

 

simple math (the song) definitely didn't hold up from what i remember when i saw it live last week

 

I think Shake it Out is the ultimate MO song, both live and recorded. It encapsulates every single element of what makes them great perfectly.

 

One of the best shows I've been to. Set was incredible front to back. Also Andy hit the high B in The Grocery, I was very happy to see that live.

 

Yea he hit it both nights easily when I saw them. I know there are male singers that can go higher but it was really cool to hear him do it and it felt really powerful both times. I could see this band live every night and I wouldn’t get sick of it
