Worriers was okay. Kinda gave me an Iron Chic vibe, but I only know one IC album so that may sound ignorant. Tiny Moving Parts was so fun last night. I only knew of the name before this tour, but they really impressed me with their songs and energy. Tigers Jaw setlist would have been perfect if Window was a part of it. Ben had a little voice crack at one point, but it was the best I’ve ever heard them sound live. I bought the comet shirt! TWY’s heavy recent albums set worked really well. Dan sounded so good when he was belting out those choruses. Seeing The Ocean Grew Hands To Hold Me was a special moment. Can’t wait for Portland on Thursday!
^ TJ rotated their set at the dates I was at. Didn’t listen to them too much prior to this tour so can’t give a ton more detail than that haha but I really enjoyed them. Hope TWY keeps Dismantling full band and earlier in the set like that. Very into it.
Dismantling acoustic in Greensboro was pretty sweet. Although the full band is obviously way more fun.
The way Matt comes in with "December's got me backed into a corner again" in the acoustic version versus the regular one (which I think just sounds a bit...muddled?) is one of my favorite moments in any TWY song.
If doors open at 6 and concert starts at 7, any estimates on what set times will be? Obviously Worriers at 7...
Need The Wonder Years to immediately go back on tour after this one and put "Flowers Where Your Face Should Be" and "Heaven's Gate" in the setlist, thanks guys!
If they follow suit of their last few album cycles they will do a b market tour in the Fall or Spring and they will swap out half the record for the other half (for the most part)
