For a time, I was obsessed with being at the Perfect Show....that I would attend a "5" Show or what would become the New Years Eve 1995 Show. Something Legendary. Fortunately, now I look at it like every show is legendary and I'm just happy to be there and share in the groove so to speak.

It's all about the feeling and the vibe when you're there, but you do miss some things for certain. I can tell you that the group I was with as well as myself, had an awesome time at this show. When I listened to the download, I was fearing that my emotion had clouded my judgment. But alas, I was excited to hear a great show and one I'll "go to" for some time to come.

This show had a really great mix of old, new and surprise. That is what, in my opinion, makes a great show....of course superb playing helps. Buried, AC/DC and Vultures was a unique twist for me...I hadn't seen those live in a long time. I will never argue with some Stash or Chalk Dust either. Very strong 1st set.

Then the 2nd Set punches you in the ear. I happen to love 20 Years Later and the live version was very cool. But throw in Lizards, Carini, FYF right after that! Perfect blend of New, Old and Suprise! But wait, 2001 and YEM to close and some Beatles to send us on our way. I don't think it gets much better than that.

July 2nd 2010 my friends, my friends was certainly a phenomenal "Day in My Life."
