Corinne found the Madison setlist online: Set list: Balloon Man/I Got the Hots/Oli! Tarantula/Autumn is Your Last Chance/I Something You/I'm Only You/Glass Hotel (with Sean Nelson)/Cynthia Mask (with Sean Nelson)/Full Moon in My Soul (with Sean Nelson)/Take It Away (with Sean Nelson)/Queen Elvis (with Sean Nelson)/I Often Dream of Trains/Creeped Out (with Sean Nelson)/I Feel Beautiful Because You Love Me (with Sean Nelson)/You & Oblivion (with Sean Nelson)/Encore: Adventure Rocketship (with Sean Nelson) I got the Hots! I Something You! You & Oblivion! Glass Hotel! (one of C's absolute faves, which she has not ever heard live) I Feel Beautiful! IODOT!! I'm Only You!!! Cynthia Mask!!!! (perhaps my all-time RH fave, which I've only seen him do at an in-store back in '99)...damn -- I guess we shoulda waited a day and added the extra 100, 120 travel miles to Madison. Like I said before, I enjoy whatever Robyn feels like playing, but...about 3 songs longer and a more interesting / diverse / generally rarer range of songs (lotta "I" songs there -- his iPod must've been stuck in that region). We were very glad for "Candy Says" (never heard him do that before; ditto for "Ghost Ship," I think), but...I woulda definitely traded those for the overall breadth of songs that I especially like in the Madtown set (about all it lacked was "Airscape," "Heaven," "Trams," and maybe another song from "Eye" to be about near-perfect, IM-(and Corinne's)-HO) Oh well...but, of course, any Robyn show is better than no Robyn show to me... Michael "The song-ending solo on 'I'm Only You' -- !!!!!! oh well..."

But we call 'em pancakes in Scotland (or "drop scones" if you're weird). Crepe-style things are also called pancakes, but only if eaten on Pancake Day. American style buttermilk pancakes don't exist at all, which is probably for the good.

I have and enjoy the new EYE bonus tracks. I'm wondering about the fate of the other solo tracks from this era, which are scattered amongst the old editions of _Invisible Hitchcock_ and _You and Oblivion_.
