holy shit they were amazing, 2 encores, the second one was not planned like most encores are, it was so sweet
anyone else like the hold steady
There's nothing special about doing extra encores. Most bands I've seen did a second encore.

bands i see never do, except for radiohead, but then again, theirs too was planned.

It's still not enough to make it amazing. I'm sure it was a good show, but a second encore isn't super special. Any band that really gives a shit will do that.

i dont mean second encore, i meant genuine encore, and besides thats not the discushin point
this is a hold steady thread
Apologies if this topic is somewhat old, but The Hold Steady is like the most amazing band ever. You're such a lucky bastard to go! They only play little club shows, and Minneapolis being the former home of Craig, they sell out in the half an hour every time.

Little club shows are always the best shows.
It's true, but once you reach the point that your shows are selling out in under a day, where even big fans can't manage to get tickets, then you're clearly playing in an undersized venue.
Our show sold out but I got tickets the minute they went on sale. It was really awesome though, I'd see them again sometime.
