Andrew Bird @ Hiro Ballroom, NYC - pics, setlist
Photos by Fresh Bread

The amazing Andrew Bird played his second of two nights at Hiro Ballroom in NYC last night before heading to Music Hall of Williamsburg to close out the Barack Rock event with a second, but shorter performace (10/7). More than half of Bird's Hiro set was made up of songs taken from his upcoming album, "Noble Beast." There was whistling. Minnsesota/South Dakota singer-songwriter Haley Bonar opened the show and plays again at Union Hall in Brooklyn tonight (10/8). More pictures and the setlist below...

What a wonderful show in a beautiful venue! Thank you, Mr. Bird, for being such a class act.

Anyone have the set list from the first night? It was pretty similar, though he played "Nervous Tick Motion", as well.

I took a few pics of the setlist from Monday night's show:
http://flickr.com/photos/16687688@N04/2921036574/in/set-72157607806560138/ and http://flickr.com/photos/16687688@N04/2920199429/in/set-721576078065601
Overall similar, though for the first night's encore, I don't think he actually played what was on the setlist-- we only got one mostly a capella song.
I'm jealous of the Fiery/Spare Ohs on the 2nd night setlist, but the first night was absolutely gorgeous.
