Here's the thing about this show, I honestly don't remember Ted Leo and the Pharmacist, but they are listed on the ticket. I'm sure I've seen them, because this was a long, long night.
What I can tell you is that I distinctly remember Apollo 440 (aka Apollo Four Forty) also was at this show. I remember that they played "Stop the Rock", which is the only song I knew from them. Shortly after Apollo 440 played, the majority of the audience left the 7th Street Entry. I've seen this happened at other shows, but not as grave as this one, where only less than ten people were left standing. I blamed it on a work/school night, but in truth, I'm thinking the opening bands drew in the crowd.
By the time Juno took the stage, it was practically empty, and I felt bad for the band. Juno had just released A Future Lived in Past Tense in 2001, so, as you can see from their setlist, the majority of tracks were played ("A Thousand Motors Pressed Upon the Heart", "Help Is On the Way","When I Was in ______", "Covered With Hair", "Killing It In a Quiet Way", and the encore "You Are the Beautiful Conductor of This Orchestra").
In the Where Are They Now? department, obviously Juno is no more, but they briefly reunited in 2006 to do a one or two off show. Apollo 440 is doing alright in London, releasing The Future's What It Used to Be in 2012. Ted Leo is currently hanging out with Aimee Mann as The Both. The Both is planning on releasing an album in February 2014.
