Back in 2004, I saw Aimee Mann perform a spectacular set at St. Ann’s Warehouse in Brooklyn. By coincidence, the show was recorded, and it soon became available as a DVD + CD ($15!). Mann streams all of her music at her site, so you can check it out at your leisure before buying it.
I enjoyed that show so much that I check out her live concerts whenever I like the venue. I had been wanting to see what the Paramount in Huntington was like, and Mann gave me the opportunity on Friday night.
The Setlist below is from Club Helsinki (Hudson, NY) from the night before — isn’t identical, but its pretty close.
All told, a great show in an intimate setting (not sure if last song was Red Vines or something similar).
