The Living Rockumentary

Here's a nice report of a recent Robyn Hitchcock concert that I read on a message baord. If you were thinking of coming to the show on March 28, this may be representative of what to expect (though Neko Case probably won't be at the Iron Horse).

"Club Congress was set up with tables and chairs tonight, a first, for all
the shows I've seen there. Robyn (now wearing his black & white polka dots
shirt) was in a very good mood, and in search of coffee quite a bit of the
evening (as he had been at the Largo, also). Here's the songs he played:
Ole Tarantula
Devil's Coachman
I've Got the Hots
Full Moon in My Soul
Television
I Feel Beautiful
(switched to Telecaster)
Autumn is Your Last Chance
Freeze
Queen of Eyes
Adventure Rocket Ship
Airscape--Robyn introduced this saying, "This is apparently my favorite
Robyn Hitchcock song."

(encore without a break, Robyn playing in the audience)
Rock Me Baby/Beautiful Woman/Sound & Vision/Kung Fu Fighting (Bowie/Carl
Douglas/etc.)

(Robyn then had the crowd join him in the hotel lobby around an old piano)
Flavour of Night
Ted, Woody, & Junior
Satellite of Love (Lou Reed)/with a bit of You Won't See Me (Beatles) at the
end

(Robyn asks everyone not to go away, and he ran back inside to get his
guitar)
A Day in the Life (Beatles)--during the middle part, Robyn had an audience
member hold his guitar while he switched to the piano, then finished up on
the guitar, and hit the final chord on the piano

During the last two songs, the crowd joined in on the singing. I'm not sure
if Robyn knew it, but one of the people helping out was Neko Case. She was
next to me in the lobby and told me that she was in town recording her next
album."
