They opened with Geek USA. I remember Snail. I remember Silverfuck *with* Over The Rainbow, and being so excited when years later I heard the Earphoria version with that in there.
Set:
* Geek U.S.A.
* Snail
* Soma
* Disarm
* Frail and Bedazzled
* Bullet with Butterfly Wings
* Spaceboy
* Silverfuck
** Over the Rainbow [Harburg/Arlen] (tease)
* Today
* I Am One (with rant)


Most notable (at the time) was that they played Frail and Bedazzled (which I swore I heard him introduce as "Frail and Beguiled"), Bullet With Butterfly Wings (I remembered the "rat in a cage" line), and a song that was introduced as "new" and very much resembled Porcelina in structure. (But my memory isn't good enough to remember if it was. I just remember the feeling of it building up for a long time, feeling very spacey, and then exploding, and my friend and I going "wow!") Since none of those songs were out on record yet, we were treated to a very special show indeed.
Encore:
* Mayonaise


Odd: Before it came out on record, I remembered a different arrangement for the song that had the "rat in a cage" line. I assume that they really played Bullet With Butterfly Wings, but honestly, I remember it having more of a beat like "Jesus Loves His Babies," if you can believe it. Could've been a different song in which Billy was just using the "rat in a cage" line.
=== Notes ===
 
* Setlist is incomplete and out of order
Anyway, I would kill for a copy of this show, if not to settle the score about whether we heard an alternate arrangement of BWBW or just the same-old version, and whether we heard the first-ever performance of Porcelina.
* Starla may have been played
 
Anyone who wants to share recollections, email me at johndmulhausen@gmail.com.

When James took the stage, he touched the end of the guitar cord to his head before plugging it in. It buzzed. He acted like it was kind of stimulating. Funny!

Halfway through the show, Billy said: "See those people leaving right now? ...Those are the people we don't give two fucks about."

Billy: "This one's called Soma, for those of you who didn't make it past track 5."
 
James cracked a joke about Tulsa and people started booing, and Billy almost
got hit with something. He laughed and went "HE said it! People think B'm the mean one. *He's* the mean one! I'm the nice one. D'arcy's the cute one...and Jimmy's the ..smart one.." ..and then Jimmy gave Billy a big exaggerated ''wink''. Billy laughed.
