Videos: moe. Plays Acoustic In-Store Performance & All Originals Show At The Paramount

The Paramount in Huntington, New York welcomed moe. last night for a stop on the band’s current Spring Tour. The home state performance featured an all originals setlist as the group avoided covers throughout the two set show.

Guitarists Al Schnier and Chuck Garvey, bassist Rob Derhak, drummer Vinnie Amico and percussionist Jim Loughlin crafted a Saturday night performance loaded with well-established favorites from their catalog. They paired “Defrost” with “Brent Black” to begin the evening and the first set also saw renditions of “Lost Along The Way,” “Blue Jeans Pizza” and “Bring It Back Home” and closing combination of “Billy Goat” > “Tailspin.”

“Rainshine” opened the second set and was followed by the first “Understand” of 2017. “Time Ed,” trailed by “She” > “Sensory Deprivation Bank” and “George” kept the all originals show progressing. Set two closed with “Haze” segueing into “So Long.” The encore began with the recently introduced new moe. song “Don’t Wanna Be” and came to a close with “New York City.”

Saturday’s second set was webcast live from a camera positioned at the front of the house. Watch the set here:
