Crescendo

Rilo Kiley’s set consisted of nine of the eleven tracks from More Adventurous and, including the encore, five tracks from The Execution Of All Things. Also included are two songs not yet released. Somebody Else’s Clothes is available only as an acoustic version on the limited edition Live At Fingerprints EP. This version incorporates the full band in an electric arrangement. Also on the setlist was a new song called Pull Me In Tighter, sung by Lewis, who also plays keyboards. The song ends with guitarists Sennett and Bloom, along with bassist DeReeder crowded around one microphone providing harmony backup vocals.

	Though the majority of lead vocals falls to Lewis, Sennett occasionally takes his turn at the center microphone. The first of the two tracks he chose to perform was So Long. During this song, it was evident that Sennett was having trouble hearing his own acoustic guitar. Midway through, he motioned for the band to continue while he put his guitar down and went over to the soundboard at the back of the stage to have a word with the technician. When he returned, he strapped his guitar on and finished the song. Whatever problems Sennett was having onstage were not reflected in the crowd for whom everything was loud and clear.
