Saw the curent incarnation of Procol Harum last night.
Brooker was in terrific voice, the band was pro, and the occasional A-list material performed -- "Homburg," for example -- sounded fine, in a sort of Procol Harum Mania kind of way. But I mostly spent the show fidgeting, and in the end, I prefer my memories of the real thing.

They didn't do "High Hopes?"
;)
As in ...Bob Dylan.
Haven't seen the setlist, but in general they don't vary a heckuva lot on U.S. tours. You get your Whiter Shade, your Homburg, your Salty Dog and Conquistador and Nothing But the Truth, plus four tunes from the new CD that no one will remember an hour later (no matter what year it is), one or two gratifying surprises (Whaling Stories? Repent Walpurgis?), and out the door. You'll see a lot of shows before you get a "Mabel" is what I'm saying.
