The Disco Biscuits Open Weekend Run At Virginia's The National [Full-Show Video]

The Disco Biscuits continued their long-awaited 2019-2020 tour on Saturday with the first of two performances at The National in Richmond, VA. The Biscuits’ two-set show last night treated fans in attendance to mix of older favorites to go with a few of their new originals which the rock band has already debuted on the tour thus far.

Saturday’s sold-out show opened with a “7-11” which rolled right into the 2005 Conspirator track, “Commercial Amen”. The set continued with a two-song, three-part segue beginning with “Caterpillar” which transitioned into one of their new originals in “Hero”, before returning to “Caterpillar” to complete the segment. “Mindless Dribble” came next and went unfinished before moving into the middle and closing sections of “Digital Buddha” to send fans into set break.

The band returned to the stage to open the second half of the show with “I-Man”, which went unfinished before moving into “Helicopters” which itself transitioned into another new original in “Anthem”. The music kept flowing with “The Champions” and “Tricycle” before the band returned to “Helicopters” to close the set. The show’s one-song encore sent fans home with a performance of “The City”.
