I've got to say. It's pretty rare to see a band outplay the audience. The audience was whipped by the heat in the Austin Music Hall and 3 hours of standing had taken its toll, but the band seemed ready to jam for another 3. I can't think of another band I've seen that played 2hrs and 15 minutes straight with almost no pause between songs, before launching into 45 minutes of encores.

The last encore was entirely from Boy's Don't Cry/ Three Imaginary Boys. What a great set to see, it was a blessing that after being a fan for 20 years, this set was one they chose to play on the first time I ever got to see them.
