Here’s what I played a couple of nights ago… ‘Twas a short little set, and the early evening period meant I slipped in more than a few mellow songs. (Except that the PINE*am song takes Erik Satie’s minimal classic and turns it into a Japanese-pop noise-festival.)

Aerosmith, “Dream On”
Elbow, “Asleep in the Back”
Jeff Buckley, “Hallelujah”
Ryan Adams and Emmylou Harris, “Return of the Grievous Angel”

Wilco, “I Am Trying To Break Your Heart”
The Beta Band, “Dog Got A Bone”
The Postal Service, “The District Sleeps Alone Tonight”
The Electric Soft Parade, “Silent to the Dark”
Jimmy Eat World, “Lucky Denver Mint”
