Setlist: 2008-09-24 - Harper\'s Ferry; Allston, MA

vallo taped  but on old equipment, I don\'t know yet if it came out.

I would guess there was about the same crowd size of the last Mill Street show.  Overall better than I expected.  

I was hoping they would play Metropolis all week, and when they started with it, I knew it would kick ass.  CMSS was some deep funkage.  HLH definetly owened the first set, one of the best ones I\'ve seen. Etch4 is a damn good song too, great way to close the set.  Unfortunately I ended up leaving at setbreak to catch the T so I could get back to Weymouth, I really wish the T ran all night.

While at the show I ran into this kid I went to college with, we actually lived together during a summer session.  I was trying to get him out to a Breakfast show back in 2006, but that was the Mill Street show that got cancelled because of a blizzard.  So a few years later he finally gets to his first Breakfast show.  One of his roomates he was with, this was his first show in 8 years apparently.  Always good to find random people finding out about these shows.

last night was pretttttty spectacular.... not gonna lie.

HLH was absolutely awesome. i always am psyched for that song, and its different everytime they play it. last nights was a flat out dance party; in fact, most of set 1 was full of booty shakin and fist pumping !

second set started with more dancing, synergy>ep1>synergy was the perfect way to launch the set! i loved last night\'s synergy, they definitely slowed it down in the middle coming out of ep1, and it was some really awesome chris-adrian interplay that kicked it back into gear.... it ended with tim flat out shredding and the crowd losing their minds...how it should be ! Puppetry was dark and creepy and very very psychedelic.

overall, last night was everything i look for in a breakfast show. plenty of lighthearted dancing and funk rock in the first set, followed by creative, experimental, and spontaneous psychedlic jams in the second set. i am so sad Red Square was cancelled; however, i am so thrilled the guys will be on the road for a month together. i can\'t wait to see what brews while they are traveling and playing multiple nights a week.

good luck on the road boys !!

I wouldn\'t say "hero" but Chris was definetely laying it down for the rest of the band last night.

Yeah he was definitely Dangle-Doin\'-It. (Tyzack get back to work!)

Did mcajam make it to the show?

yup

Gladys>Pupp owned everything/everyone, nuff said.

People were beggin for more but no encore for some reason.

Good to see everyone.

I hate NH temporary IDs god damn photocopied pieces of shit.

[Igziabeher]

ser times.  any show w/ hlh and gladys is destined to be an allout dancefest.  i managed to get whiskey in my eyes during hardluck, thats how good it was.  cut me some slack was my addition to the setlist, and i appreciated its placement.  gladys>foam jam> puppetry was clearly the highlight of it all.  everyone was smiling from ear to ear for that one.

[siflandollie]

good times good times.  We got pulled over on the way in but the cop gave us a warning, the opening band wasn\'t bad, the red sox won and then the breakfast tore it up!  no encore was a bummer, but oh well.  I thought Tim could\'ve been turned up a bit, but overall the sound was pretty even.

[derickw]

i thought it was a real good show and Chris was def. keeping the guys on track= MVP of the night!

siflandollie, that sucks you got pulled over but a warning was a nice break. sound was hugely dependent on where you were standing.

oh and i HATE F$CKING BOSTON DETOURS!!!!!!!!!!

jam > Synergy* > Episode 1 (Happy)** > Synergy^

very interesting considering this is kinda what they did in utica.

tapers?

Ahh yes, Utica Electric memories....daydreaming...

It\'s still a shame they\'re not playing here in Albany tonight, but duty calls I suppose.

good review, DW.

Tell it again sometime.

maybe if you actually attended a show you wouldn\'t have to read my senseless dribble and would be able to form a review of your own.

Unfortunately I had to leave after the first set. The rest of the night looks pretty damn good hopefully a recording of this pops up I\'dlike to hear the Gladys.

I didn\'t have any $ when i left and wasn\'t able to grab a hat at the merch table. Don\'t when I\'ll be able to make it to another show, hopefully the iron horse show, can the hats be purchased on line anywhere?
