If I had one night left on earth I would go to an Avett Brothers gig!
Just saw them for a second time and it was truly amazing. The place was packed and it was rocking last night. I can't remember the whole setlist but they played all the songs this time that I really wanted to hear last time (and didn't get):
Murder In The City
January Wedding
Laundry Room
Salina
Shame
Go To Sleep (the highlight of my evening)
I'm sure someone will have the full setlist but the songs above were my own personal favourites that I was dying to hear. I took a group of 10 people along and all but one of them had never even heard of them. Needless to say they were all amazed by the band.
Come back soon Avett Brothers.....please!!

I think there were a lot of shellshocked newcomers to the Avetts last night as the crowd wasn't as active as I've seen in the past, but the merch stand was doing a good trade on CDd at the end!!!
Thanks for the update from across the pond! I hope someone took down the full setlist.
thanks for the video!!

I keep shoes on from the time I wake until the time I go to sleep. I was in a fist fight once, back in high school, and I was wearing flip-flops. I found it difficult to defend myself without shoes on, so I always keep a pair on now. Just in case.
Here is another video posted by pneurotic of "If It's The Beaches." Very nice.

With Lucifer beneath you and God above, if either one of 'em asks you what you're living of say, "Love."
^ I like that review but statements like this still make me cringe, "the band upped the tempo and showed us how real bluesgrass is really done."

I believe I'll dust my broom.
Good work katminelli. Looks like a fairly decent set list as is.

"I need HEEEEELP!
But I'm on it. I'm on it."
This was great!
nice pick me up.
We got Skin & Bone too
got a few more videos to share but can't till tomorrow
I went to this too and I have to say, out of all the concerts I've ever been to in my life, this topped them all. They were absolutely outstanding! It was so great to be around a bunch of like-minded people as Avett Brothers fans are very few and far between over in the UK it seems.
I took my sister along with me, she'd listened to a couple of random songs before we went but she hadn't really seemed TOO impressed by them, so I was really unsure of what she was going to think, especially as she can be very hard to please sometimes! There was no need to worry though (of course), as by the end of their first song, I and Love and You, she said in my ear "I LOVED that, it gave me goosebumps and everything". And then as their second song kicked in (I can't remember which song now but it was more upbeat), she just looked at me and said "I love them!". Well I was happy! She then spent the whole coach journey home from London to Liverpool listening to The Avett Brothers on her iPod.
I got a video of Shame and If It's the Beaches which I'll be uploaded to YouTube very soon!
Here are a few other songs from the set that haven't been posted:
Head Full of Doubt
I Killed Sally's Lover
Distraction #74
The Fall
Putting everyone's songs together, we may have the full set list now.
Finally got the rest of my video up on YouTube (what a ballache!)

Changing the plans that I’ve been setting on

I just uploaded a video from this show of The Avett Bros performing Shame. I love it!

So gutted, Avett Brothers finally come and play London, and play Koko which is a 5 minute walk from my house and i had to be on the other side of the world for a stupid wedding!!! (ok the wedding was great but the timing sucked)
That was hard enough but now i read through this blog and see that the show was amazing, which of course i knew it would be as the brothers rule and Koko is the perfect venue for them.
PLEASE COME BACK TO THE UK!!!!!!!!
