I may be missing a few songs in the encore portion of this setlist.

Night #2 of The Posies performing “Frosting On The Beater” in New York
was held at the Blender Theater (named after the defunct magazine) but
might now be known by it’s old name The Gramercy Theater. Who the hell
knows, who the hell cares.

All this to say that on this night, we were treated to the comedy stylings of Ken &
Jon. These two should have their own talk show. They were riffing on everything from
the history of drinks (being in a venue name blender brought this on) this dude
Tequila Tom which I had to look up just now, scalpers, twitter, Bret Michaels (again)
and so on.

Don Fleming, FOTB’s producer, impressed us all by closing out the show performing
a Beatles cover of “Why Don’t We Do It In The Road”.

A very enthusiastic performance that found his white haired, 6 foot 3 frame getting off
the stage and in the crowd singing to confused women and as a finale, jumped in the
drum kit head first.

A nice rock ‘n’ roll moment.

I shot a few videos of the night’s festivities. Excerpts from Emperor City Motorcade and PT Walkley’s performances and some of that witty banter between Ken & Jon.
