For anyone that's been to shows from both tours (98ish and 08) are you seeing similarities? Are you getting the same anxious feeling after each song ends and the mystery next song begins? I know I am, and I'm only reading the setlist.
I can't wait to see them again.

It definitely seems that they are experimenting more on stage again. Bringing in some "random" old tracks definitely keeps things interesting, especially for long-time fans such as ourselves. The've added a load of new songs for this current tour, a lot of which have rarely or never been heard live before. from the top of my head I've heard (or seen in tracklists): Banstyle, Mowed Path, Air Towel, Holding the Moth (album version), Little Speaker, Spoonman, Deep Arch, BS original, Best Mamgu Ever, Cherrie Pie... not to mention unreleased tracks like Darc and Bamboo. That's probably a bigger amount of "new" tracks added than on any tour before.
