Nuff said, he played pretty much what I'd expect to be on, plus a few I either hadn't heard before, or hadn't heard in ages. "My Name Is Macbeth" suffered a slight technical hitch when he couldn't find the mask and hat, but he was pleased that the audience didn't seem to mind. I was hoping he'd play "Ikea", which he didn't, but as he said to the person in front of us in the queue he gets people asking for songs he can't even remember writing. And he does have an extremely large back catalogue.
For those of you who don't know, he has a blog. There are youtube videos on the webpage. And he's very funny. Especially the rock opera, and the proper musical (not this fad for "tribute bands with a plot").
