Following their surprise hometown show in June, last night (August 9) The Gaslight Anthem properly kicked off their comeback tour in Germany.
At Berlin’s Columbiahalle, the New Jersey heroes tore through an amazing, career-spanning 21-song setlist, kicking things off with beautiful Get Hurt B-side Have Mercy, and wrapping up with The ’59 Sound’s glorious title-track.
In-between, they celebrated all eras of their music, from older favourites like 1930 and Blue Jeans & White T-Shirts, to ‘newer’ non-album tracks like Halloween and Sweet Morphine. Plus, of course, there was all the massive singles – from Great Expectations and American Slang to Handwritten and 45.
