    And it easily was!!! Wow - just got back. Long-time Beck fan this was my first time seeing him and the band live.
    Could not have asked for a better gig - they played every song I could have imagined they would do.
    The sound was fantastic (though there did seem to be some difficulties with guitars).

    The acoustic slot was excellent - Lost Cause was beautiful. And here was me thinking the dining table part was just a visual prop - WOW again!! Clap hands is my new fave Beck song.

    What was the cover song?

    1.5 renditions of Where's it At!

    And finishing on Get Real Paid - there was a song i didn't expect to hear live. Superb.

    If you're a Beck fan (or own at least own one Beck album) and weren't there then you really need to kick yourself. Top night and I haven't even mentioned the half of it.

    If anyone knows/remembers the full set list will you post it plz?

    PICTURES HERE

    Amazing show! The light show on the screens was excellent!

    Set contained all the great new stuff like Hell Yes, Girl, E-Pro and Que' Onda Guero! Also the classics Loser, Devil's Haircut, New Pollution, Where it's at!

    Dueling Banjos too! With solos!

    Beck went acoustic for a few songs while the band sat at a dinner table, for the last acoustic song the band started playing the bowls and table and glasses! Totally brilliant! I recommend his show to anyone, listen to the new album Guero!

    Oh so good!

    I'll get the video up soon
