Press previews:
Phillyist: “It’s a good thing the Mann doesn’t have doors, because if it did we have the feeling they’d be getting blown off.”
Philadelphia Inquirer: “As far as reunion shows go, this is one of the most welcome. At the very least, it’s the most bizarre.”
City Paper: “When Faith No More played the Tower back in October 1992, the show came to a memorable end when Mike Patton’s evening-long taunting finally led the audience to swarm the stage. Who could forget the image of Patton singing “The Crab Song” while crowd-surfing onstage, as the rest of the band dodged people diving from the tops of the Marshall stacks?”

Wonder if the mystery song will be ‘The Crab Song’, in tribute to the 1992 gig?
Hey do you know what time they are going on? Is there an opening act?
Whose opening besides NH?
Good question.
What’s with the Masonic artwork?
It was Neil Hamburger and Rahzel. Both were on cumulatively for maybe a little over an hour.
FNM played the same setlist from the night before with the exception of the second encore, which was not played.
Hello all…
I don’t know if there’s a change for Monday or not, but this was Roddy’s tweet about Monday’s schedule/info about the opener last week: Doors 530, James Chance maybe 6 or 630, Neil Hamburger at 7 or 730, FNM at 8. K?
Whether Rahzel is going to be the opener, or RB was joking about James Chance…we won’t know til Monday…
