Got to meet Randall! Y’all going to the rest of the shows have a great time. I had an excellent trip. SKWM was magnificent as expected.
Malkamus was there, I peeped him when I went outside to get some air before the show.

213Lotta humbuckers on stage! I like that the boys turned a slight corner.
Re: Let Us See Your Shows
214Had to go through my other photos to verify... SKWM guitarists were still favoring their single-coil pickup guitars but both Joel and Andy played guitars with humbuckers at some point in the show (obvs Andy did in the photo above, just didn't remember if Joel played his...).llllllllllllllllllll wrote: Wed Sep 24, 2025 5:38 am Lotta humbuckers on stage!

Re: Let Us See Your Shows
215For those of you curious about their setlist, this is my best attempt at remembering what they played (NOT in order, except the first two and the last one). I'm 100% sure that I'm missing one or two.
1) "Couldn't You Wait"
2) "Treat the New Guy Right"
"Garden City Blues"
"Raised by Tigers"
"Dremate"
"Pilot"
"Nerves"
"Slow Hands"
"Swings" - sung by Joel
"Don't Make Plans this Friday"
"Give Me Some Skin"
"Never Met a Man I Didn't Like"
"Clean'd Me Out"
"Raging Bull"
"I Hope U Don't Survive"
"Dirty Air"
"'Don't Look Back'"
"Insomnia"
"Bar Ice"
"The Bones" - acoustic, sung by Joel

217Holy shit, it was. Never realized it before but that melody and the way it is sung fits him perfectly. I don't know SKWM history super well but it makes me wonder if they had that song in pocket before Joel left the band and that's how they originally performed it.

Quite a few of the songs you listed strike me as incredibly thoughtful and moving inclusions. Bar Ice, here, sutures a wound.
