And let's not overlooked the inclusion of Most 'Ospitable!
Perhaps just a bit of background as the band took the stage, but still, such a beautiful, rare old track. Hope they played a proper good bit of it.

That's the pre-recorded track they've been using to intro the band for the past 3-4 years or so. Usually a good portion, if not all, of the track gets played.

Dang. Guess I really have given up on live bootlegs in the 2010+ era to not know this. But when the tracklist is essentially identical, why bother? Alas, at least Peach Tree and Confusion made it in for a change.

Not just identical setlists, but identical performances. You don't need to download a bad audio version of a song performed exactly as it is on the album you already own, much less pay money to go listen Karl sing a karaoke version.

One of the best live bands on Earth. What happened?

I mean they are still a blast live, its not like they are pressing play and jumping around like a lot of electronic acts these days, they just aren't as fun to watch every show and set list from home these days.

Peach Tree ?!?!?
WOW.
Still my favorite.

Here's some videos taken at Zepp Namba.

• Peach Tree
• Rez
• Cowgirl
• Born Slippy NUXX

Nice, thanks! What did you use to shoot the videos? Did you handhold it?

How big is that club? It looks bigger than the old Zepp Osaka, but Wikipedia says the capacities are similar. The lighting there certainly seems to be hitting above its weight class for a venue that size.

Do you remember the days Karl run around on the podium and dance his ass off? Now he's scared to leave his dance mat / pad the whole show... 🤔
