“No photography, No Audio, No Video”. The signs were posted just before the doors opened which sucked since Okkervil River are totally cool with taping and according to The New Porno’s management, they have no strict rules about it. Oh well. I only stayed (and went?) for Okkervil River. It’s too bad they were not in town on their own tour. They played a great set though. The sound was ok and the crowd was pretty big. Although it seemed to be more of a NP’s crowd. Anyways, here’s hoping for OR to return soon and play at a better venue, maybe The Music Hall.

Okkervil River’s setlist:
01 The President’s Dead
02 Black
03 A Hand To Take Hold Of The Scene
04 The Latest Toughs
05 A Girl In Port
06 Plus Ones
07 A Stone
08 It Ends With A Fall
09 John Allyn Smith Sails
10 Our Life Is Not A Movie Or Maybe
11 For Real
12 Unless It Kicks
