I've loved Eels since seeing them on TV at Pinkpop '96, but never got around to seeing them live. Imagine my surprise last year when I logged into upcoming.org to discover them coming to the town I live in! (you could've gone to Cross-linx in Utrecht though, would've been closer to A'dam)What I didn't know (came not so well prepared) was that it was a theatrical show, with seats and a two-man setup. I'd expected a full band, playing the songs like I've gotten used to them on the albums. At first I was disappointed, but did a 180 when E and Chad started playing. It was beautiful. For me the high points were the impressive rendition of Flyswatter you mention and Last Stop This Town. I've got this mental list of 'songs I want to have heard live' and LSTT has been on there for a while. What I really missed? Manchester Girl. I don't think he ever plays that live anymore, but still. Would love to hear that live once. It was indeed an absolutely awesome show. I’ve loved Eels since seeing them on TV at Pinkpop ‘96, but never got around to seeing them live.
