1. World goes round
2. Honestly
3. Declarations of Faith
4. Broken Heart
5. Settle Down
6. Jesus -> Mary

And I swear to God...I'm 90% sure he was wearing the moose sweater. Or at least something oddly similiar.

Thanks. This was part of a multi-band thing again, right?

Any good stage banter or anything?

Any good stage banter or anything? Yeah, multi band thing. Almost no banter. Billy talked about the Bears for a bit and Sweeney went off about doing it 'Philly Style,' that's about it. But Mary was about 20 minutes long and was the best performance I've heard so far.

It was a good show. Zwan has lots of great songs. You can't expect them to play everything you want when they can only play ~6 songs.

The crowd was really into the show, just not for Zwan. The majority of the people there only really got into Good Charlotte/New Found. And to an extent, coldplay.

Coldplay put on a good show, though mostly composed of just single material. The regular Nelly 'hot in herre' tease, and they played part of a christmas song.

it wasn't the moose sweater, though the "taste" was similar.

As far as setlists go, I don't know that you could ask for a better one from a 45-50 minute set. They played 4-5 of their shorter songs. They were tight, but nothing special (although Until I died was the first "soft song" from any band that night and seemed quite heartfelt.) BUT they jammed for like 30 minutes total with the Jesus/ Mary bit...there was no stoppage, just one right into the other. The sound was bad for hearing lyrics anyway, but the jamming came through loud and clear and was perfect for the venue. It was mesmerizing, escapist, spaced-out rock, and no one on that bill brought anything close (though QOTSA did their thing well).

I think that was the best performance they could put on at a radio show. the song choices were just perfert and the Jesus-->Mary Star of the Sea thing was amazing. I think they played for about 45 minutes as apposed to 35 but who really cares, it was all awesome. I had these Good Charlotte fans looking at me funny and mocking me everytime I yelled something for Zwan and I couldn't help but think how little they realized what they were witnessing. oh well. it was really great to see Billy and Jimmy play again, since its been 2 years since I saw either of them perform, and really, I don't think an opinion can be had about the band unless you have seen them because any bootleg I've heard did not do justice to what I saw last night.

It was good to see them smiling and having so much fun. They both said that they're really pleased with how things are going after the show.
