They also played several older songs including 'Monday Monday Monday', 'Living Room' and 'Walking With A Ghost'.

Hunter Burgan from AFI, who plays bass on the new album, made an appearance on the shaker at the mostly acoustic show.
At the end of their 55-minute set, the sisters announced that they wouldn't leave the store until they met everyone who wanted to meet them. They spent the next three hours meeting their fans and signing autographs. |
