We're Bad People, We're Just Freaks
then they went on to some on-the-spot covers:
Hey Bulldog--the Beatles
You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)--the Beatles

David Garza joined them on keyboards and they closed the show with a medley:
Sound & Vision--David Bowie
Rock Me Baby--?
When You're in Love With a Beautiful Woman--?
All in all, it was another great Largo show. Robyn said that Tuesday's show
would have no repeats from Saturday's. He seemed to be in a great mood and
was extremely talkative. Robyn confirmed at one point that he was now
married and is really excited about the prospect of spending more time in
the US next year playing more shows and recording a new album.
That pretty much covers it for the moment, but there's more to come on
11/25. Stay tuned... Marc
