kevins_concertsI'm not the biggest Bob Mould fan, in that I don't know all of his songs. But I'm pretty sure he played four songs from Workbook. Wait, maybe it was only three. "See a Little Light", "Wishing Well", and he closed out his acoustic set with an awesome version of "Brasilia Crossed with Trenton." And of course, "If I can't Change Your Mind" and "Hoover Dam" from Copper Blue. And a couple from Hubcap. And I'm pretty sure some of those songs were from Hüsker Dü...
Anyway, Bob had a quiet night. He remarked on this several times. He remarked that he could hear the air between the words. Someone said, "scary, huh?" He replied, "no, not scary. It's just that I can hear the air between the words." He mentioned how he wasn't trying to sing all the other vocal parts too.
It was a solo night. A bit over half the show was acoustic. He's got that strumming, droning thing going on, but he still works some fancy fingerwork in among the chords. The electric part was a lot looser - and louder. I would have preferred he'd done "If I Can't Change Your Mind" more true to the album version. But it was still cool.
