Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness - BottleRock 2016

Festival Plan: I saw Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness last year and would be willing to miss his performance to see a different artist/band of similar liking.

Excellent: Dark Blue ((JM)) {2}; Punk Rock Princess ((SC)) {2}; I Woke Up In A Car ((SC)) {2}; Cecilia And The Satellite {4}; Synesthesia ((AM)) {3} [Actually sounds quite like Cecilia And The Satellite];

Above Average: High Dive; Watch The Sky ((SC)); Maps for the Getaway; Halls; All Our Lives;
Slightly Above Average: Canyon Moon; Swim ((JM)); The Resolution ((JM)); La La Lie ((JM));

La La Lie (Jack's Mannequin)

On the Fence: Holiday From Real ((JM)); Black and White Movies; Bloodshot ((JM))
((JM)) = Jack's Mannequin; ((SC)) = Something Corporate; ((AM)) = Andrew McMahon

Setlist:
1) All Our Lives [AA]
-- Jack's Mannequin:
2) Dark Blue ((JM)) [E3] -- the electronic keyboardist does back-up vocals
3) High Dive [E4]

4) Canyon Moon [AA] -- he only sings during this song
-- Something Corporate:
5) I Woke Up In A Car ((SC)) [E3] -- Andrew McMahon jumps off his piano at the end of this song; while I caught the jump, my camera was out of focus

6) La La Lie ((JM)) [SAA] -- harmonica portions; Andrew McMahon stomps on the keys at the end of this song
7) Cecilia And The Satellite [E9]
8) Synesthesia [E3] -- he passes out large parachutes which the crowd moves along, cause "I see colors..."

Post-Festival Thoughts:
While Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness's setlist here at BottleRock 2016 ended up being a subset of their setlist at Firefly 2015, a major difference is that I had the energy to stay awake through all of it and got a tad closer.

I Woke Up In A Car (Something Corporate)

Excellent: All Our Lives {2}; Dark Blue ((JM)) {2}; I Woke Up In A Car ((SC)) {2}; Cecilia And The Satellite {6}; Synesthesia ((AM)) {2};
Above Average: High Dive [definitely much better live]; Canyon Moon [also better live];
Slightly Above Average: La La Lie ((JM));

La La Lie (Jack's Mannequin)

((JM)) = Jack's Mannequin; ((SC)) = Something Corporate; ((AM)) = Andrew McMahon
