Another outstanding performance by the boys! Setlist wasn't anything out of the ordinary, but the songs are sounding so good. As usual, Jimmy absolutely floored me with his playing. Second set was much more lively, as even Bill Walton (bad back and all) was shaking to the fine groove layed down by Mr. Schools and Co. Agree the venue was surprisingly good, although would have prefered an outdoor venue like last year. Ran into JB outside right after the show, thanked him for another great night. All hail Panic!!!!!!

The sound at this venue was the best I've heard in, well, ever. Granted I was in the 12th row center, but still, everyone was crystal clear. Even if Jimmy was cranking on some crazy solo I could still hear everyone else, which is rare. On a related note, please, pretty please, Chris or whoever mixes these, could we get more low end? I listen to the aud recording sometimes because it's got better bass. And I'm not a bass freak, either. But for some reason all these recordings are lacking on the low end and have been for years. The best sounding recording I've listened to was from the Columbia/Portsmouth run in '06 with Sam and John Keen.

kinda messed up that they got the hatfield at 12:17. it definitly clocked in under 12, about 11:53. Guess you have to buy the whole show if you want this great hatfield.

Well lets start with the surroundings.....great weather, Sunshine, cool theatre, cool downtown vibe, breweries all around, Bill Walton in attendance, and all that is left is WSP. Can a show ever be bad when you start with Drumz? Not a chance! This show was a cooker from the start. Here are some of the big highlights:

A of D > Greta > Jam > YGY, Gimmee, LGDTB, Steve > jam > 20 minute SMOKESTACK LIGHTNING, Hatfield, and during Climb to Safety a fan ran on stage and School's waved to him as he was dragged off! What a show!

Absolutely ROCKED. Very loud and everybody was fired up. Always take a day break after LA in the future. The band needs the rest to fire it up again is SD. I was concerned about the venue but it turned out great. Lots of room, almost to much...hopefully the promotor has a job after this show. We loved it as fans. It is nice to see the band have such a great time with Jimmy but he is a little over powering at times. Don't get me wrong, he is excellent but just a lot to swallow with so many good musicians next to him. ALL and ALL great show. Dont let the setlist fool you. How about the Smokestack. Thank you guys...Can we get a "cocunut" someday...;)
