no Cold Water bit tonight. Loved the opening MFFF on electric guitar... IDWTCY was also on electric guitar, nice talk before that, think he said it´s the love song he´s written, like a true love song...

Camarillas!! Next rare request- Non-falsetto Orchard!! To paraphrase, you give us miles and miles of mountains and some of us will ask for the sea (passively on a message board)!!

Camarillas!!!!!!

Thanks for sharing, as usual. Please share stories, videos, etc!! Think I saw on facebook that there was no galagalactic. Are they not joining him at all?

You are the greatest, Marti!! Quite lovely, no quiet seething at all!

Mia Maestro opened with Joel on guitar, not crazy about the songs... she did not duet with Damien (as I expected)

Damo was chatty, well, not much at the start but became more chatty as the gig progressed... he told some stories in French, before T&T... also a long rant about being in love and making lists of what the loved one can/cannot do... he said he eventually ended up being in love with one person (he didn´t say names but it´s obvious who he´s talking about) and he wrote IDWTCY, which is his only love song...

never seen an audience singing so much, from the very start, Delicate, even the newies,... after Volcano Damien said something like, I didn´t wanna do this (the singing part with the audience divided in 3 groups), but if you wanna sing, let´s ****ing sing

he forgot again the lyrics of Colour Me In... same as usual... but was beautiful


Bastard was amazing tonight!!

We went on line pretty early so we were front row... I was actually in front of the harmonium as you can see...
Trusty & True


Long Long Way

I would've lost my mind with all the singing!!

I wonder what percentage of fans are new because I'm finding it hard to be at multiple shows with a standard setlist (the Grateful Dead supposedly varied theirs for the Deadheads). How has the setlist experience been for you and cuulium, given you've gone to so many shows and have several ahead of you?

I have to say I've been liking the harder ones more in the larger venues even though I have always been drawn to the softer ones at home. I find the noise he can make with himself, an acoustic guitar and pedals astounding!!

I love italtkam live because sharing his vulnerabilities of his Byron Katie "Work" is so generous. He messed up the honeybee/sting line in philly. Of course, I didn't mind at all.

How early did you have to line up to get front row?

Was indeed a good bastard but I still think the best is when we get the original line.

Am almost 95% convinced now that forgetting "I tried to forget it, it was all part of the show" is illustration and mind-f***ing the audience. Not a great line, but compelling because he forgets it as part of the show.

Marti you are the greatest! Can you go and document all the concerts?

Fabulous, Marti and Stefan and all the Montreal folks. Thank you for making this huge world seem so delicately, perfectly small. And thanks for asking for Camerillas! Safe travels.

He really has been since I started lurking in 2002/2003. Most of the rarities in my collection are from him and another fella from here. He should get a prize for MVE (Most Valuable Eskimo). For now, I have the satisfaction of buying him a drink.

marti... :icon_pray

shut up people :D :D :D :p :p :p

:smiley36: so modest...I hope Damien or his people see this so maybe you can get a lift to a venue (perhaps even in that special windowless, airless equipment carrier) so you don't have to spend extra hours (and $) on public transportation.

thank you so much marti!

damien came out about an hour after the end of the show. stories and full recording coming!
