Agreed with all, Mr. Huck. Muchos photos and some youtube here, as well. You woulda given Dallas an 11 to Houston's 10, me too.

"and play more tracks off the formidable front end of their catalog" Sure their first few albums were great, but I see nothing to complain about with the new stuff. The songs were all incredible live, and I thought the tracks from Hail to the Thief were especially well placed in the set - much more notable than they had ever been to me on the album. I couldn't have imagined a better show, unless they played for two more hours to sufficiently cover their earlier material...sure there was a lot of stuff I was disappointed not to hear, but there's nothing I regret hearing instead. The Dallas show got Fake Plastic Trees, The Bends, Exit Music, and Paranoid Android, so maybe you would have liked that set better. The two shows had very different feels, esp. since I was really close for Houston and way back on the lawn for Dallas, but both were perfect.

Jonny uses a radio during "Climbing Up the Walls," not a sampler. From 58 Hours: The audience's cue that the band is about to play this song live comes when Jonny pulls out a small radio and begins tuning it to different stations. During the band's sound checks, Jonny locates classical-music or news-oriented local radio stations, and uses these -never rock stations- to execute "Climbing Up the Walls."
