Stage AE, Pittsburgh, PA.... Seth and Scott Avett had visited WYEP that afternoon for an interview and I did the stage announcements at the concert, so it was fun being backstage being treated like a VIP. The Avetts introduced me to their father Jim (who joined the band on "Salvation Song"), and I chatted with my old NJ friend Nicole Atkins (who was a friend of the Avetts during her brief time in NC). It was a great show, of course.   The Avett Brothers   Nicole Atkins   me with Seth & Scott Avett me introducing the Avetts on stage     Avett Brothers setlist: Go to Sleep Tin Man I Killed Sally's Lover Shame The Fall Will You Return?

Champagne Supernova Fade In-Out All Around The World Encore: Acquiesce external review: review by Peter Vamos for Jam! Showbiz >> In the intimate confines of the beautiful and ornate Hammerstein Ballroom in New York's Chelsea district, Oasis, the self-proclaimed "world's greatest band" arrived Tuesday night with only one goal in mind. To crank out their biggest and best tunes at such a volume that they crack the molded plaster lining the place. Playing the first of two nights in what will be their only headlining gigs in North America this year, the band thundered through most of their popular numbers, including Supersonic, Roll With It, Live Forever, Champagne Supernova and Wonderwall.
