Fizz setlist 6-21-2010

It was a hot, sweaty night at Fizz, thanks to the humidity and the full house. I was subbing for my friend Chris, whose laptop died. (Back up your music now, folks!) In comparison to last week, I felt like I wasn't able to stay ahead of the crowd to the same degree, but I was still pretty happy with how this set turned out. The tempos tended to be slower, because of the heat, but I still had a good range (as you can see from the sparkline and frequency distribution, which is more gamma than gaussian) and a good diversity of music (including some old chestnuts).
