Built to Spill Saturday night- excellent. They are no longer at the head of the "must see before I die" list, a list which is whittling down pretty fast. They played a few new songs that were actually really great, along with a nice mix of songs from their best albums- "You Were Right," "Virginia Reel Around the Fountain," "The Plan," "The Sidewalk," "Car," "Carry the Zero" . . . mostly songs from Keep It Like a Secret really. And good lord, can those guys jam with the triple-guitar threat . . . they didn't speak much and spent too much time dilly-dallying in-between songs, but wow, can they play.

Tonight: the first Books tour ever! Pictures will be up tomorrow night when I get home from my NEW JOB!
