Change a plus for Minus 5
The Minus 5 that will roll into Portland for a show at Dante's may not resemble the group that would have played in town a decade ago. Back then, The Minus 5 was a true side project for frontman Scott McCaughey, who spent most of his time in the critically acclaimed band the Young Fresh Fellows. It gave singer/multi-instrumentalist McCaughey a vehicle for songs that were too introspective and restrained to fit the exuberant power pop of the Young Fresh Fellows.

22 Sept - The Crocodile, Seattle, Wa
The Minus 5 were in fine form, and there was a camera crew on hand to capture their show (along with Kurt, Mary, Jennifer and I bouncing and singing along maniacally) I never did find out who or what they were filming for, but if anyone does, I wouldn't mind seeing it.
I snagged a setlist. It's kind of innacurate order-wise but it's fairly close. Over the Sea Aw Shit Man Rest O World Posted on 24 Sep 2006 by Stoffel

Get Happy!! - It's the tears of a clown for the Minus 5's Scott McCaughey.
"I didn't really think I was starting a band."
Call these the famous last words of Scott McCaughey: founding frontman of the dead-but-not-buried Young Fresh Fellows, R.E.M. sideman-extraordinaire for more than a decade, supporting cast member of Tuatara and backing musician for Robyn Hitchcock — in short, a busy, busy man who has somewhat accidentally led a rotating cast of musical characters through seven full-length albums, a handful of EPs and countless tour dates under the catch-all moniker of the Minus 5.
