Did you see the Devin Townsend Project at Harpo's in Detroit?

Please post your reviews, setlists, photos and video links here!

Thanks!

Completely unrelated, but seeing the name of the venue, this had to happen:

"I really like the group NSYNC. My favorite member is Harpo. I think there's a Harpo. If not then there should be."

Great show, as always. Opened with ZTO, By Your Command, Seventh Wave, and Life. After that, I'm not sure of the order but they played: Stand, Juular, Addicted, Regulator, Deadhead, Supercrush, Earth Day and Bad Devil. During Bad Devil Devin left the stage and went up to an upper level dance floor. Most of the people from down in front joined him up there for some sweetass dancing (well done, everyone). The encore was Heaven Send and Vampira. Heaven Send worked really well and was stretched out a bit with some nice soloing by Devin.

Devin's interaction with the crowd makes his shows so much better than can be expected. He talks to individuals between songs and makes eye contact as he plays. He makes the crowd feel like a part of the show. This helps to make it a fun experience each time.

I may have forgotten a song or two. If so, please correct me.

Fun show. This was actually the first time I was able to see a full Dev show, other time I saw him was in an opening slot.

Guy doing the MC Hammer dance in the pit during Earth Day was a hero. I totally missed him running up to the dance area during Bad Devil until it was almost over (was right in the front so I didn't see him come out on the floor towards the side)...guess when I looked back and saw half the crowd missing I should have known something happened. Funny stuff.

Thanks for posting the songs, took a stab at the order, I think this is very close, hopefully someone actually took it down.

Man, you guys got a hell of a set too. I totally would have gone if I didn't have class on Tuesday nights. We didn't get Seventh Wave, Life, Addicted!, Earth Day, or Heaven Send. We did get Disruptr and Numbered! though, and I'm extremely shocked not to see Truth and OM as they seem to be his big staple.

Deadhead was absolutely incredible live. The moment when he went up to the dance floor was fucking awesome. I was late to get up there but I still managed to stand about two feet away from him. Man his guitars are huge! I remember during the "How could heaven be so fanatical" part of Heaven Send I was singing along and Dev looked straight at me and mouthed the words "Oh he knows it huh?". Then I looked around and noticed no one else was singing along. Its a shame the stage was so high up there.

Also I'm pretty sure Earth Day was after Deadhead. Could be wrong though. A lot of the show was kind of a blur for me because I was in such awe the whole time. It was my first time being to one of his shows.
