Like an idiot (nothing ever changes around here!), I overwrote my original setlist notes with the titles given in the stage setlist picture I got after PMW finished up. Which makes it darn near impossible for me to verify whether or not they played what was planned, except as hinted at by my comments above. Doh! Maybe someday a recording will surface that could be used to fix the setlist problems. I probably should have been paying better attention, but at this point in the afternoon, the combination of a full day's sunshine and easy access to Lagunitas had gotten me a little discombobulated.

Anyways, PMW delivered a fun, high energy set, and I'm looking forward to seeing them again soon at the Sweetwater.
