Timeline notes: Before 'I Believe', Bertis Downs comes onstage with a laptop to announce that Barack Obama looks very likely to be the next US President. Michael puts on a Barack Obama shirt & 4 audience members wearing Obama t-shirts are invited onstage to dance to the song. After the song, Michael checks his phone to make sure of the result.

 

Notes:
-Setlist highlights: I took Your Name (16), Everybody Hurts (11), She Just Wants To Be (18), Nightswimming (11), Sweetness Follows (16), I Believe (1 promo 2 tour), Radio Free Europe (1 promo, 1 tour, last performance), Cuyahoga (7)
-MS notes before Drive that preliminary electin returns are looking promising.
-Driver 8 is introduced "unlike many of our songs which are inflammitory and political and somewhat negative, this one is very positive and it represents the dream that is the American Dream, the dream that is something that wherever you're born, wherever you live, wherever you're from this is a song of hope and promise".
-Before MSW MS notes the next two songs are inflammitory diatribes and that in 28 years they have never performed on an election night and promises to keep the crowd updated via his phone.
-PB drops a 2:13 solo to end SJWTB.  After the song MS announces Obama has taken Ohio.
-MS invites people wearing Obama shirts to come to the fron throughout the show
-After I Believe PB teaches MS some Spanish.
