Here is the setlist from Saturday night’s Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds show in New York. It was a pretty amazing show and a far cry from when I first saw Nick at the old Ritz in November 1986 where about thirty people showed up and he was slugging cheap vodka from a plastic bottle. Although I love the stage presence and musical inventiveness of Warren Ellis I still miss Blixa!
