First off, I have no idea what the specifics were on the order of songs...seeing as I don't have a copy of the newie I can't name any of the new stuff unless the band mentioned it.
It was a good mix of the old and new: they interspersed every 2-3 songs or so. They started off with Park Avenue (?), then went on to Psycho Future. The whole show lasted approximately 1 hr. 10 min and it was totally packed. Not too much moshing going on, just lots of head nodding (and one guy who had his own groove going on).
Other songs played: Super-Fire, Crash 17, Disco Six Six Six, TheKindaMuskYouLike, Vera Cruz, Cash Machine, Click Click, American Black Hole, Cowboyz Orb, Kill The Sexplayer, and a few other new ones.
One thing I noticed is that Scott kinda introduced a lot of the songs: "I never found my way to Vera Cruz." They didn't do that the last time I saw them and I wondered if that was for the benefit of new GVSB fans, or what? Then again, the show was advertised as being part of the NY Underground Film Festival.
I don't know if you could say it was an encore 'cause they didn't say "good bye" or anything, but the band left the stage for 1 min tops and were back. Before they played another three songs, starting with In Like Flynn, Eli announced that all were welcome to come down stairs where they were going to be spinning some records as part of their House of GVSB stint.
Throughout the performance, there was a guy (can't remember his name) in the back left corner spinning throughout. And I noticed that for some of the songs from House, they played in different keys and livened them up a bit more.
Ummm...that's about it. (QuickSonic and the Railroad Jerks opened...24 and 46 minutes each, respectively.)
