    I just got home from this show. Great show and the Rooster video was awesome.  Social Ghost did a good job, too.

    How was the setlist, did they play anythign different from the Orlando show?  I agree, Social Ghost wasn't bad. They kind of sound like Trapt unplugged

    Re: Asheville, NC (Thomas Wolfe Auditorium) 10.16.07

    I can't remember the set list in order but it went something like:

    Don't Follow
    Heaven Beside You
    Brother
    I Can't Remember
    Nutshell
    Killer Is Me
    Angry Chair
    Sludge Factory
    Love, Hate, Love
    No Excuses
    Down In A Hole
    Curtains by Elton John
    Squeeze Box by The Who
    Got Me Wrong
    Would?
    Rooster

    I didn't take any pics or vid but a lot of people did. I just bought tickets on Sunday since I had no idea they were coming here so I got stuck in the balcony. Decent view but I couldn't hear a lot of what they were saying between each other.

    They sounded great. William sounds much, much better live than I've seen or heard from bootlegs.

    We were Left Orchestra Row M and couldn't hear or understand much of the band's comments between songs either which was a bummer. Loved the way William and Mike interacted with the crowd. The vocals and music were superb!

    Great show once again, although the setlist has not changed.  I love being up front so that you can actually interact with the band.

     At the end of the show Jerry came over to me straight away and handed me a pick and I dropped it!  Never did find it.  Dayum!

     It turns out that the guy I sat next to and was talking to throughout the evening is one of Mike's best friends.  He was kind enough to later introduce me to Mike who is the sweetest thing ever.  Gave me a kiss on the cheek hello as well as a hug and a kiss goodbye.  Can I just tell you how soft his hair is!

    I could see a lot of band-crowd interaction from middle balcony on the left side but couldn't understand a word of it. Too bad I didn't know they were coming sooner and I would have bought tickets long before Sunday.

    We didn't hear about the show at all in Columbia. Just happened upon it while getting Smashing Pumpkins tix. Got ours about 3 weeks ago and they were pretty good seats. I think the reason we couldn't hear the commentary was more attributable to mixing than seating or acoustics. On the rare ocassion the crowd was quiet enough I could hear 'em but barely. Maybe if they cranked the volume it would've helped. Still very enjoyable!!

    The show was great, when I was parking William came walking out by where the buses were parked.  Didn't get to meet him, but it was cool to see him hanging out pre-show anyway.  They had a great attitude, lots of good chatter (although it was tough to understand any of it) and they really seemed to be enjoying themselves.  William really did sound better than I could have hoped for, it was so much better than any of the bootlegs I've seen/heard.  Right on.

    The Asheville show was AWESOME!  The fans support of the band alone was really cool to be a part of and experience. The fans chanting "Jerry, Jerry, Jerry" was really cool. Drove up from Atlanta, totally worth it!  Saw the boys with Velvet Revolver in San Fran and Atlanta, they were great at those shows, but last night blew those away!  The venue was small,  a bonus to an already kick ass show!
