I'll probably go anyway, but it looks like they aren't doing Spiderland (at least not entirely, I'm assuming):

I wish I could go to this.

Alright, I'll bite. I checked Wikipedia and there was no mention of what the deal was...

They really announce beforehand what shows they will be playing songs from a particular album? How does that work? I've never heard of such a thing.

It's done from time to time.

Pink Floyd, Sonic Youth, and Brian Wilson have, off the top of my head.
