First of all I was shocked at the number of people that went to the
Modest Mouse show. Most of the audience I don't believe had heard of the
band before that day though. Apparently there was some guy break dancing to
MM songs. How you can do that is beyond me but my friends assure me it
happened.
Their setlist was pretty mundane to say the least. They took a couple
requests but nothing to terribly odd. They played Shit Luck which I haven't
heard them play in a couple years. I was a bit dissapointed they didn't play
Cowboy Dan though. I'm sure they're probably pretty tired of that song by
now though. They didn't even have a encore... Hope they have more energy for
the rest of the tour.
I must say the sound guys did a great job at the Key. For once the
guitar/bass didn't drown out Isaac's voice.
Overall it was a great show, however, I miss Modest Mouse's small venue
charm.
