Here are the recordings from my phone, be sure to turn your sound down low. The quality is pretty bad for the louder tracks.

the "panda bear warmup" is just what was playing through the speakers at the time.. nothing he was acutally doing on stage. i think he was just checking his equipment. Anyway, I shazammed that song.. it's a CAN song (called Transcendental Express).

speaking of which, there was a song before PB's set that sounded like some 50's pop with a female singer. Shazam couldn't find it. I liked it. anyone know what it was?

Yea, I started recording as soon as he got on stage, and stopped it when he did not come back for a bit.

Were there any set changes beyond The Preakness?

EDIT: Just checked out the phone recording and it sounds like no Heart and Soul this time?

Was it the faster or slower version of the Preakness? If he cuts heart and soul tonight I'll be pretty bummed. That's my favorite

I met someone at the show last night who stuck around to talk to panda and he just texted me saying that Panda told him that the material from last night was 3/4 of all the material he's put together.

Nice to hear about The Preakness! I was hoping he'd bring it back on Sat.'s show for the actual day of the race, but better late than never.

Drove 3 hours from new york state with my bro and we got searched at the border and city traffic was shitty and we almost got lost in downtown Toronto and we blocked an intersection and got honked at by taxis but damn, so glad I went. I haven't listened 2 any of his new music yet so it was an experience hearing it all for the first time.

DJ dog dick was pree hilariously bad, does he not know yr only allowed to grab yr nuts once per show?

I think I was walking behind your car when you got honked on the intersection of Broadview and Queen (noticed the plates)....I might have also ended up driving behind you for a bit on the highway back....

Did anyone notice the dude really vibing out and raising his beer can and hands throughout the encore (near front centre/leftish)? At one point, he started talking to a girl and she ended up hiding behind her boyfriend :?

I was up on the balcony and there was an arm (I couldn't see the person it was attached to - I was almost over it) on the floor (leftish) that kept waving and pointing, etc. It was a really enthusiastic arm, getting into the music. It was a bit distracting!

That was an amazing show! and well worth the tired, shitty day of work on 4 hours sleep today.
I liked some of Dog Dick's beats/music but I wasn't a fan of his rapping. Panda was unbelievable.
Had a great spot on the balcony, sound and visuals were amazing. somebody brought a baby?

Was he dressed all in black with a black baseball cap? If so, he also kept talking to me. I'm pretty sure he was Russian based on the accent. He asked me if it was going to be a dj set, and when I said no he said "good, I came to hear one song, that 12 minute one off his first album" he was referring to Bros, and Person Pitch. Also kept yelling 'Bros' during the encore

No, it was another dude, he had on a red and white patterned shirt and was sporting a blonde moptop style haircut. When he was dancing, a big gap in the surroundings started to form, heh. We were standing outside and he approached us and said something in a British accent that we didn't understand...interesting night!

Spoiler: show
What a wonderful show! Totally entrancing for the most part. The visuals really paired well with the music. I was often confounded at what I was looking at, to the point where I wouldn't dare take my eye off of the screen, lest I would miss a single cryptic image spliced into the visuals. Really trippy--especially those two images of a man with his mouth open and a snake is crawling in and out of his nose and mouth (!!). Leaving the venue, it felt like I was walking out of a dream.
Whats that one song called? where Panda is singing against a pitch shifted/auto-tuned version of himself amid a shuffling, processed groove?

lol. Was it that obvious we were lost? Wtf is up with Lake Shore anyways, Our directions said "Stay on Lake Shore East" then all of a sudden we were on West and that's when we learned taxis hate it when u block intersections. Then it turned into East again. What a loada crap that was.

Also that Russian dude in the black was pretty cool, even though he spilled his drink on my kicks twice. He said he was trying to get out of Russia with no real destination and ended up in Toronto. He told me and my bro Bros was the only PB song he knew but he wanted to see him anyways cuz why not. He was clearly having a good time/real drunk even though he didn't play Bros. Interesting guy.

Huh, that thing about Lakeshore is weird....sounds like you went in a loop? Anyways, if you ever come back up to Toronto one day, just remember that Yonge Street acts as the dividing line between the East and West sections of streets parallel to the lake (e.g. Queen West/Queen East, etc.). Also, in the two towns west of the city (Mississauga - where I live and Oakville), Lakeshore is also split into East and West once you enter them, so if your GPS was telling you to keep driving on that road, you might've simply gone from Lakeshore West in Toronto to Lakeshore East in Mississauga. I'm assuming, though, that it would have told you to take the highway back to the border.

I think we got off the highway at the wrong exit, we didn't have gps but we had directions that said "get off at Lake Shore E." Apparently there are like 50 places to get off onto that road and we picked wrong. We almost turned around thinking we missed it but the road we were gonna use to Uturn turned out to be the road we were lookin for. o well, fun adventure, would get lost again

I am the driver that got us lost. My b for causing gridlock. Dude from Russia was cool to chat with. Got me thinking all "WHAT IF" about Bros. Panda was amazing. Was groovin out hard up up front, slightly rightish. And that encore, damn! I was ready to cheer for a second one but then the lights came on and security was all GTFO.

Haha yeah! It was sweet to see him have fun, and not be bummed to not here the song, I hope his mind was blown. Anyone who was close to that guy was also close to me as I was right next to him.
