All-American Rejects-Manhattan Center Studios-12/5/08 (Walmart Soundcheck Taping)
So, about three weeks ago I said my last concert of 2008 was going to be AAR on November 18, and I ended up being half-wrong. Last week, I got my hands on tickets for the free taping of the Rejects set on Walmart's Soundcheck (which is an internet concert show)
The setlist:
1. Swing Swing
2. One More Sad Song
3. Dirty Little Secret
4. Top Of The World
5. Stab My Back
6. Gives You Hell
7. My Paper Heart
8. Mona Lisa (When The World Comes Down)
9. It Ends Tonight (Acoustic)
10. I Wanna
11. Move Along
12. The Last Song
The setlist is essentially the same as the previous show, with several songs dropped. I'm not gonna bitch about that since it was a taping, and more importantly the show was free. The Rejects played pretty tight, and were quite entertaining. I will say the band seemed to be a bit nervous about all the cameras and taping at the start, but loosened up by about the midpoint of the show. Good concert, and totally all worth it
One story that I did want to bring up, just because I found it really call. The band had to cancel a show in Pennsylvania last week, and there was a big outcry amongst the fans. The band and the record company arranged for free busses to take any ticketed audience member from PA to New York and back (which is 8 hours round trip) for free to see the show. I thought that was pretty cool.
