I've lost count of what number rehearsal thing we're onto now - 7 or 8 - at trusty old First Avenue. Recent rehearsals have taken a shape of playing the set of the 11 of so songs we've got down pretty well, an hour or so of working on newer things and then repeating the set.
That 11 song set in full:
You're Gonna Miss Me
1-2-5
Pretty Big Mouth
I'm Gonna Make You Mine
I Ain't No Miracle Worker
Action Woman
Little Black Egg
I'm Not Like Everybody Else
Primitive
Hey Joe
I Can Only Give You Everything
All Day and All night is taking on a role of beery encore. The Bad Seeds' (not the Nick Cave one) All Night Long was given it's first run out with the proper chord changes in the middle bit. First runs out for My Flash On You (tho' our footing is trying to gain a-hold somewhere between Love's and Thee Sixpence's respective versions), Can't Explain, Tristan's new song When the Morning Comes and something I've cobbled together from a few chords thrown out at the last one called Stick or Twist.
To fill in the final few tired moments there was a fun blast through Territorial Pissings as well as Gloria. We've played that before and it sounded pretty lame, but didn't sound too bad this time! Might have something to do with Pete's later observation that it felt like we clicked as a band somewhere through the second run through of the set. These things take time, as someone once said about something totally unrelated, perhaps.
I was somewhat discombobulated early in the rehearsal by mucking about with that delay rack thing. No tech-head me.
