I saw the band at House of Blues in New Orleans last night, and was glad to see the were still a great live band.  I was semi-fearful that the live sound would change with their new set-up. And while it wasn't the same, it still sounded good.  The House of Blues sucks, just as an aside, don't go there if you can help it, it really isn't worth the effort. 

Roxy was slowed down a little I believe, but it was hard to tell. I was dissapponted that they didn't play "She's Lost Control" but I suppose I an cope.  Anyway, it was a pretty good show and one of the cheapest shows they offe at the House o Blues ($10).  Usually show can go up to twenty bucks for bands like these.  I woud have liked to see more old songs played (I wish they still closed with glazed-eye).

Key points--
Park Avenue sounds a lot better live.
Alexis is a really really good drummer
Both opening bands were fairly entertaining.

Past all that there really isn't much else I can say.  I wasn't able to get a set list either, but I don't imagine it changes all that much from show to show.
