great show, though mellower than what i expected/hoped for.
connection opener... ? dwd was the real opener in my opinion. sample was standard, ocelot was great and jammy. reba was great, albeit far too short. horn was BEAUTIFUL. never disappointed. funky bitch was funkylicious, though not the best of the tour. undermind was great, best new jammer of 3.0 imo. curtis loew was great, i was pumped to hear em rock this one. bowie pulled out way too early, leaving me moist and wanting.
possum was great as a 2nd set opener, tons of energy! high lite of the night (obviously) mike's groove took us all for a spin, with the best live performance of any song i've EVER seen with I am Walrus... you had to be there. and if you were, you know what i'm talkin about. simple was great and spacey, very interesting version. weekapaug was fuuuuuunky; definitely got us all in the grooviest of grooves. unfortunately it all went downhill from there... limb by limb was surprising and slightly lack-luster, and we were all SOL when the most unfortunately placed Joy in the history of Joy popped up next. well played, but at the end of 2nd set? really? hood, i'm pleased to report saved the day, though this version cut it too short yet again. regardless, there was nothing short of a chesire grin across my face this entire tune, and i was pumped when a high energy golgi sealed the set with an exclamation point of compositional glory.
first tube.. what to say about first tube? it was a great version, but i reeeeeally thought they were gonna rock another tune after the distortion had it's fun. i felt like we deserved it...
good show, 6/10 (the mike's groove receives a 8/10 for it's sheer badassity)
