Nice. What I liked most of all of that is that he sounds so passionate about the here and now and what the future holds for his solo material. Doesn't sound like he has any plans on throwing in the towel on his solo career anytime soon, and that we will see many more solo albums to come in the future. This is a fantastic thought. Also, I think it's awesome that he puts so much effort into designing a complete experience from the moment you arrive at the venue to the moment you walk out. Perfect evening with experience.

What exactly happens in the Routine video? I've heard the song is about a mom whose husband and children were killed, but I've read many comments about the video.

I think what made the video extra depressing is the fact that it reveals that they were killed in a school shooting. Children dying is depressing enough, but having it be a school shooting that caused it is extra fucked up.
I missed that part of the video.  I hadn't put much thought into the lyrics prior to the show.  I guess I had been thinking the mother had been divorced and no longer had the children with her.  The video was extremely sad, more so from the fact that I have kids 5 and 3 years old so I can't imagine going through something like that.

I cried/teared up about five times. I wasn't expecting to hear Lazarus, so that really got me (as did Routine, Ancestral, Happy Returns and Raven).
I'll admit I was sobbing during Happy Returns but that song frequently does that to me.  It makes me think of a family member who is closed off a lot of the time and I can imagine them writing something like the lyrics in the song and never sending it.

Anyway onto less depressing thoughts.  :)  I thought the show was really awesome.  Probably not as awesome as the last tour but I still have a slight preference for the Raven anyway which taints that a bit.  As usual his banter on stage was a lot of fun. 

The new song/material was really interesting.  I'm not sure if it will be on the next album since he said it was a leftover from the new album.  In any case hopefully it gets an official release. 

I do find it interesting that his stance towards Porcupine Tree music has changed.  Last tour he said he didn't feel bad taking stuff from the Porcupine Tree albums that were more solo work and the ones he played this time around certainly didn't fall into that category.  I did go back and look at other sets and see that he did an acoustic version of Trains at some shows.  That would have been cool.  And apparently some shows got "How is your Life Today" in place of "Lazarus". 

It was cool to meet up with you and your friend Jackie.  Lots of good conversation and laughs prior to the show.

Hey guys, glad you're digging the interview.

I am still around, but I've been extremely busy the first half of the year, all winding up with me FINALLY moving to Minnesota (about 15 minutes from 80% of the venues I go to here). I still have a few boxes and pieces of furniture to go, then set up internet and BOOM, I'll be back.

The interview was a bit last minute for me. It wasn't till the Thursday night before the show that I was told by Steven's PR that HE wanted ME to interview him (not the other way around, well obviously that too, but his PR sent me the first email). I was hoping to do it at the show on Sunday, but due to time restraints I wasn't able to make it happen. So it got moved to yesterday where I had to make a makeshift studio setup with my phone, the mic I use to record my radio show and my computer that is about to die. I think it turned out great and once I get set up tp do it again, I definitely plan on doing more phone interviews, it was a hell of a lot of fun.

The only downside is that I didn't get to ask nearly the amount I wanted to and you can tell that right as i hit the vein of some killer stuff to talk about, it was over (I edited out the part where his PR told me I had to stop so he could go to the next interview). But I know this won't be the last time I get to do this, so I have much more to talk about on the horizon.

And I will be back! I promise!

Same to you!

As for Routine, the deluxe edition tells you about the school shooting, so that part wasn't surprising to me. The video was quite sad, though not as heartbreaking as some people seem to think. Maybe it's different for those who didn't know the entire context before.

As for his banter, that was great. When he flipped off the people from Texas and said "We came from England,"  :lol

I would've been thrilled with Trains or How Is Your Life Today, but I'm really glad we got Lazarus  :heart

He is playing Lazarus at every show on this tour. I was fortunate enough to see him twice (in Newark, NJ and NYC) and for whatever reason, I lucked out with the extended set list with How Is Your Life Today? and Trains at both shows. It is unfortunate that he isn't playing them at every show on this tour, but I'm thrilled that I got to see them  :hefdaddy

i dunno, "Lazarus" seems to be swapped out for the medley of HCE leftovers, and i think i'd rather hear that, personally!

hopefully he includes a studio version somewhere (but i'm sure there'll be a Bluray for this tour that includes it, given the live stream thing)!

According to setlist.fm, the only show on this tour that Lazarus was not played at was the 2nd show in Chicago on June 5th. I wasn't a huge fan of the song prior to the show but seeing it live made me appreciate the song a lot more.

All righty, then.  Less than 9 hours to go.  I don't know what to do till then.  I might as well relisten to Hand. Cannot. Erase.

I think there's bound to be 24 hours worth of replays on the same channel after the live stream is down.  We'll see.

The performances have been fantastic so far. The rendition of Perfect Life was so much more livelier and I think I prefer it to the studio version.
