First Stadium Show in the Books
June 14th, 2008
“Hello Again Philly!” finally welcomed the crowd to the next stop of the Year Of Still Here Tour in Philadelphia after a brief rain delay pushed things back a little.
Returning to Citizens Bank Park for the first time since 2005, the first set featured a new opener, a quick version of “Why Don’t We Get Drunk,” performed Solo by Jimmy. This was the first known time that Jimmy has opened with “Get Drunk.” Past that, the set returned to regular tour form with “Fruitcakes” and “Miss You So Badly” returning to their spots in the set list after being skipped in New York.
The second set saw a few changes as well as “Tryin’ to Reason With Hurricane Season” was back in the set after being absent from the New York show. Nothing else was new to the set, but the order was slightly shuffled.
The First Encore was the same as New York, as “Glory Days” stayed in the set but was not an audible this time. The second encore was again different, this time with a solo acoustic performance of “Defying Gravity,” dedicated to Tim Russert and Family.
