Comment
- "Set 2" was played acoustic, the band expanded to 8 players, played on a stage that descended from the rafters to the middle of the arena about 100 feet from the main stage.
- Pat Smear played with the Foos on this acoustic set and on the songs from ESPG. During this set, Dave boasted to having the best triangle player in the world, and had him (aux. percussion guy) do a solo.
- Dave and Chris traded solos on the "Guitar Dual" and subsequent jam, as well as on "Roadhouse".
- There was also a string player that played cello on "Let It Die" and "The Pretender" and violin during the acoustic set, as well as a keyboard player that played on various songs throughout the night.
- Taylor sang his song, Cold Day In The Sun. Everlong was played by Dave alone through the first two verses on the acoustic stage then joined by the entire band (electrified on the main stage) on the breakdown.
- During the encore break, the band played with a camera backstage that was transmitted onto 4 large screens behind stage and teased the audience as to how many songs they would play for an encore.
- In his "speech", Dave stated that Portland was where the Foos had their first paying gig (at the Satyricon) and subsequently "helped start the band".

Show lasted approx. 2 hours 35 minutes (Started at 8:45, ended at 11:20).
