Hope you all enjoy the Breakfast in your neighborhood.  It\'s nice to see a small but growing pocket of fans down in D.C.!  Hope the word gets out after tonight\'s show.

from what i remember....

inner glimpse
ldz>
beef barley
(now let me just tell you about this bb. strong contender for jam of the night! its a good song and all, but it doesn\'t usually do *that*!!)
some stuff i\'m forgetting
karn evil 9
the chase
firey ball
gladys pimp

(i just realized i remember much less than i thought i did...)

second set had
superfly phaddy daddy
mayfly disarray
no regret
a jordan song i\'m spacing on
phaddy boom batty (with a hail to the chief tease - \'exercise your rights!\')
and the utterly ridiculous
gravity>rufus>gravity
to close the show!

sorry it\'s not more complete, but i figured i\'d give y\'all a quick taste of the insane pummeling that dc just took. it was big jam after big jam, with that rufus just shaking the place! if that\'s just the first night of the run, folks in two days are gonna have their spleens shook loose! i was really impressed with how huge ron and adrian were sounding tonight, too. not that jordan was slacking, just that i thought those two were really thundering.

as timmy said afterwards, \'well... *that* was a workout!\'. its not often you leave a thursday night show drenched in sweat and beaming, but we sure did tonight! :^)

i thought that there were a decent number of people there at the begining (although it is a tiny space. kinda like setting \'em up at the end of your living room), but at setbreak a lot of folks trickled out. thursday night, and all that. which i guess is a bummer, but the guys played so hard second set that you couldn\'t tell they weren\'t in a packed stadium!

I agree, sometimes I kinda of sigh when they start playing it, but then ten minutes later they are in the middle of some crazy jam and you forget what song it is!
