Link to Blog write up!<\/a>. <\/p>\nI think Saltair (the venue) had time restrictions. The set started at ~ 10 PM and SxDx wrapped at about 11:30 PM. Way short set for SxDx. They went to their encore departure after about 7-8 songs and encore was only about 3 songs. Not played: Story of My Life; Sick Boy, Mommy\u2019s Little Monster; Don\u2019t Drag Me Down\u2026.<\/p>\n
The good: <\/p>\n
So, it was good b\/c there was 3 new songs introduced, a lot of older material\u2026.they intro\u2019d with So Far Away and opened encore set with Making Believe. Most of us purists were in the back just chatting and being a bit pissed about the short sets\u2026.normally SxDx plays 2 hours plus when they are mainlining \u2013 heck they play longer at most festivals as a non mainline\u2026.<\/p>\n
The bad:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I think I am getting old and my standards are increasingly more demanding. The crowd that was there was poser-rific, but it\u2019s SLC. Mike even mentioned before playing a rousing rendition of Prison Bound that there are too many crack-whores in the crowd that probably have no clue how to identify with this music. Not played: \u2018Mommy\u2019s Little Monster\u2019, \u2018Story of My Life\u2019, \u2018Don\u2019t Drag Me Down\u2019, \u2018Another State of Mind\u2019, \u2018Under My Thumb\u2019. This wasn\u2019t too big of a deal, but it was odd to me after seeing them more than a dozen times and getting stirring renditions of each as their encore or mixed in their set list.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Summary:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The night started with SxDx getting straight to work with \u2018So Far Away\u2019 followed by \u2018Bye Bye Baby\u2019. Nice simple mood. The SLC crowd didn\u2019t get warmed up until after the third song. mike finally begins engaging the crowd a bit. Of course he has become more prolific with his spitting into the crowd and this seems to be much more prominent than in years past. I will have to try and rememeber the overall set-list but I was too shocked at the short set to remember. Anyway, I was glad to go and see my favorite band. We tend to all be getting older and it seems SxDx is not exempt from that either. It was nice having my brother there and being able to enjoy the events with him. I still remember like it was yesterday seeing them play a few other times and the memories keep getting sweeter. We\u2019ll see how long the links stay valid for the channel that I found on youtube so I may revisit this event into the future.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I would say this wasn\u2019t their best concert, but I was glad my brother and I took the time to attend.<\/p>\n
