EDIT: Thanks to Sophia and Kristin for pointing out in the comments thread that "Imitosis" and "Yawny at the Apocalypse" should be in there somewhere between 11 and 16. Also, against others' recollections I'd still swear that he finished off the main set with something more uptempo than "Birthday..." but I've no idea what.

i think imitosis should be somewhere there after armchairs and before fake palindromes? btw, i love your blog. i didn't know such a lovely blog about the pittsburgh music scene existed.
Thanks! I was looking for the list. Great show. Yawny at the Apocalypse should be at or around #16.
thanks for getting a list up! (I always get too excited and overwhelmed to ever remember what went where.)
I'm pretty sure that "Fake Palindromes" was the last song before the encore, though.
So I might be making a false memory, but didn't he start with at most a minute of some random wordless song before taking his shoes off. Wasn't that random wordless song the same song that's in the new Cesar dog food commercial? Doesn't the song in that commercial sound exactly like Andrew Bird?
