WOOO!! Me acaban de responder mi correo y se supone que estoy en la lista!! No te mandaron algo Lillian?

Mi única duda es que no firme mi correo, pero mi nombre aparece junto a mi dirección de e-mail, entonces supongo que lo tomaron de ahí.

For more information visit: www.alastairramsey.net

____

Mexico, Chile and Argentina all sold out woo

Damo will definately be back with support like that!

[borneoman]

so where are the reviews from Mexico????

[Lilian]

WOW! I never thought I would have so much fun
I would love to write a full and exciting review from last night, but I'm not a lot-of-words girl unfortunately :/ Anyway, I'll try my best.

I recorded the whole concert, the audio is kind of crap but at least you can tell all the songs, I'm listening to it right now and here's the setlist.

The Professor
Delicate
Elephant
Coconut Skins
Amie (he also told the story of that song before playing it)
Older Chests
Cannonball (totally acoustic, no mic or anything)
---
Woman Like A Man
Eskimo Friend
Animals Were Gone
I Remember
9 Crimes
Grey Room
Cold Water
Hallelujah (he played with the lights off these two last songs)
Childish
Accidental Babies
Rootless Tree
Volcano (with everyone singing along, each part of the venue a different verse, it sounded SO great)
-Encore-
The Blower's Daughter (some drunk guys started fighting so everyone got up and went near the stage, so thanks guys! haha)
Cheers Darlin'

Here are some pictures, I'm uploading the rest of them later this afternoon but I wanted to share at least a few right now. I also recorded some songs on video, if they're any good I'll put them on youtube. That's all for now, more updates later :P

Just to end this, it was awesome. Damien was in a great mood, it was a good audience I think. Just his voice and his guitar, a nice vibe definitely.











And I'll tell you about the recording of the tv session later

[glo32]

Thank you Lilian! The setlist looks great (I was hoping for some new song though)...
Glad you enjoyed the gig!


ps. ...a tv session?

[borneoman]

thanks Lilian!!! Good setlist, almost like a Damien Rice Greatest Hits setlist in fact he did play O in full plus most of 9.... Wanted some newies damn it

You seemed to have got some rare ones. Glad you had a good time!

I don't think he plays Grey Room, Animals were Gone, Childish or Hallelujah that much.

I wonder why he starts every gig with Professor..

Million dollar question- why does he start every (seemingly) concert with Professor?- everytime I saw him he did, among other setlist ive seen.

I hope Childish remains a rarity

[Joyful]

Thanks so much Lillian! I am so glad that you had fun. Wanted some new songs though too.

nice set list - not sure why ya'll expected new songs though.........love the grey room cold water hallelujah sequence

while yes he does play the professor a lot in my 6/7 gigs he has never opened with it.......

[eskimo_prague]

Gracias por las fotos y el setlist Lillian, sólo te faltó "Then Go" La cantó después de "Accidental Babies".

Yo también pude grabar la mayoría, aunque la calidad no es la mejor porque mi cámara no enfocaba muy bien desde mi posición, pero por lo menos el audio estará jeje, y según he estado checando algunos videos también quedaron decentes.

No pude ir a la grabación del programa , iba a estar en el DF hasta el domingo, pero tuve que regresarme hoy en la mañana . Me platicas cómo estuvo por favor!

De hecho ayer me tuve que ir cuando empezó con "Cheers Darlin'", contó la historia y después la cantó o cómo estuvo? Cualquier detalle estaría excelente ya que me perdí el gran final .

As I was telling Lillian, he also sang "Then Go"!! I was very happy he did that He sang it right after "Accidental Babies" so setlist is as follows:

The Professor
Delicate
Elephant
Coconut Skins
Amie (he also told the story of that song before playing it)
Older Chests
Cannonball (totally acoustic, no mic or anything)
---
Woman Like A Man
Eskimo
The Animals Were Gone
I Remember
9 Crimes
Grey Room
Cold Water
Hallelujah (he played with the lights off these two last songs)
Childish
Accidental Babies
Then Go
Rootless Tree
Volcano (with everyone singing along, each part of the venue a different verse, it sounded SO great)
-Encore-
The Blower's Daughter (some drunk guys started fighting so everyone got up and went near the stage, so thanks guys! haha)
Cheers Darlin'

I'll write a little review shortly. It was a great night! Also worth noting now is that he played like 5 seconds of "Sand" and then just decided against it and went to "Childish" instead.

[Felipe]

AMAZING!

actually, i wanna listen he sings "Sand" and a little bit of "Desafinado", in portuguese! I'm sure the hole place will sing this with him.!

it would be heaven for me

but, as i said to my friends, problably i'll be in state of emergency if he sings The professor, Delicate and Elephant as he sang in Mexico City... wow my 3 favorites ever.

i'm sooooo excited! thank you for post this, the pics are amazing!!!

Next week he'll be here in Brazil

He usually starts gigs with an acoustic or piano song. The Professor, Delicate, Cannonball, 9 Crimes.

Looks like a terrific setlisrt, and pretty long too, right? I'd ballpark a set with that many songs at close to 2 hours.

[Larissa]

Oh, I am so anxiooooous!
I hope he plays "Desafinado" too in Brazil... it would be so perfect!
Has anybody been in the concert last night???
How was it?

[eva_arg]

I.can't.wait!!! 2 more days yayyyy

[Moves-My-World]

Anyone signed up for Jan 31st/Feb 1st?

Interesting point to note, I looked at Ticketmaster.br for Seu Jorge concert on 31st, which mentions that there will be a DVD made of the concert (I think). I wonder if Damo will feature..

Have a great time Argentinian Eskimos!!!!
