Post by: Ren on December 28, 2008, 04:05:09 pm
so i figured last night wasn\'t gonna even come close to the night before, but it was pretty close, let\'s just say that i wouldn\'t wanna have to make the call if i had to.

couple of misleading sounds during the opening jam, wasn\'t thinking of the sound when it began, but once the jam took off i didn\'t care anymore.  what the funk was great to hear especially with jordan back, you could see how excited they all clearly were to be playing, and it translated quite well into a really wild one.  loved honey butter, seems like it\'s been a while since they played it, but then i seem to have absolutely no concept of time when it comes to them.  doughboy was as good as it always is/was, however jordan had some technical problems that distracted him enough to think, as he told me, "oh shit, i have to sing, what are the words!?!" and then fuck them up.  he said one of the pedals wasn\'t working, honestly i doubt anyone but him noticed.  metropolis was no joke, even with an oddly placed (imo), greatly received and long awaited echidna\'s arf.  i was so excited that when i screamed, "yeahhhhh," my voice cracked horribly and went up like 3 times higher than normal, hopefully only jen and i heard it.  i figured they\'d break it out sooner or later, but still had my doubts, (chris, is there any song you don\'t know or can\'t learn in like 10 minutes?) then it was right back into one of the wildest jams i\'ve heard from metroplis to finish the set.

pretty slow starting long jam that had pretty clear shades of sleeping beauty throughout the begining before somehow finding it\'s way into mayfly.  weird, kinda slow start that just turned into a dirty, funky, hard, rockin\' mayfly.  

the puppetry that ensued was nothing short of pure magic.  from begining to end it was complete and total insanity.  the jam was their classic, trance-like, techno-ish, style that could just take you on a long wild trip with or without any, uh, outside help ;).  by the time it came back around and finished, even the band was looking at eachother like, "what the fuck was THAT?!?"

goddamn.

i don\'t think i\'ve ever heard such a long piano intro to tlatg, or for that matter any kind of piano intro at all to it.  holy shit, did it ever make for a ridiculously drawn out, dramatic, climactic, or whatever you wanna call it, song.  i swear, sometimes gencs actually looks like he\'s gonna collapse into a pile of sorrow, happiness, or just raw emotion onto the floor and just start twitching or something.  christ, kid.  unreal build up to overexposure that segued so fast that it almost sounded like it was edited if that makes sense, it was just like right at the peak, it was suddenly a new song, i don\'t even remember hearing adrian\'s little drum intro or whatever you call it.  

overexposure was great, but it did seem to go on forever, unfortunately sometimes it seems that way, though it doesn\'t take away from anything.  great finish to the show!

gladys was about as wild and crazy as any i\'ve ever seen or heard, they just laid it all out there for it, i loved how time tim just started screaming really fast at one of the peaks what sounded like, "gladyspimpandkangaroos" or "gladyspimpandkangarooswithme," over and over.  shit they were having a such a blast that when it seemed it couldn\'t go any further they launched into spunk!  spunk was just filthy, like it ever isn\'t, with a drum solo that as lexingtaint once said, "may have loosened my belt a little," then back to spunk to finish us off....

don\'t know what else to say...bye!

Great run indeed!  Being able to use fog/ haze for the lights is clutch.  Visually and aurally, the show was outstanding.  It was great to meet some of you over the last two nights as well.  I\'m sure we\'ll cross paths again, soon.  Peace.

Yeah, I was that guy last night. I walk out after Doughboy for some air and then it hits me, my car is gone!!

I was literally parked almost next to the band\'s van but I guess I was on the wrong side. What a bummer, I was really digging on the first set, but I gotta take care of this.

I left my cell phone in the car. D\'oh!!

I could hear Metrop kicking in as I went in search of a cab. Big bucks later I was driving back to the venue and made it back in during May Fly. What seemed like a really long time actually went pretty quickly and smoothly. Thank goodness for credit cards (the emergency card), or I would still be in Albany!

Long story short, epic show that I feel blessed to of attended. The energy was totally palpable and I think this band has incredible potential. Welcome back Jordan. Chris D ballin\' last night. Huge!!!

So, all of these trials and tribulations just made the show that much sweeter. Thanks guys!!

The Puppetry was completely out of control. Maybe best ever. I know it seems like people say that a lot for particular tunes, but man..... da shit was bananas! Pre May Fly jam was really out there too....

so so glad i made the last minute decision to go up last night thanks to sallyalli\'s help.

\'twas definitely one of the better shows i\'ve seen in a while. i love seeing jordan back with the band. hadn\'t heard the band cover echidna\'s since the last time it was played at the middle east in \'06. i reaally reeeeaaally hope to hear that more often now that sequoia is in the picture. second set really owned last night. gladys>spunk=holy smokes!

This show was absolute energy in musical form! It was fun to hear Jeff rock out and then to hear some full-on jordo style. I enjoyed Chris\' solos. Great job guys- I had lots of overdue fun...

It would be great to see more spotlights on Adrian. A pedestal might help out too. He seemed to get lost visually in the depth of the stage.

Thanks Jeff although I had to miss your tunage between sets. Hopefully can catch you play another time.

I really dug the Sound. I was listening to a version on the drive to capital city and I thought how great it would be to hear it, but thought Jordan didn\'t know it. I\'m glad I was wrong.

I sort of agree with this... sometimes its hard to see that guy. And when you do get a glimpse its like holy fuckin shit. At least 50% of my brain is locked into Adrains beats but dude looks so damn intense behind the kit, at least give the dude some lifts or put him on the side opposite Sequoia.

Unless thats the way the band likes it then I don\'t really care whatever makes the jams nasty right?

can\'t wait to hear this. the show was all around amazing, i really wanna hear the puppetry jam again, it was grimey. also i would like to check out the OE and gladys because it was so crazy in there that i\'m having trouble separating all the jams in my mind.  mayfly was def slower than usual and funky as fuck and puppetry got untzy. i\'m pretty sure i released a blood curdling "eppy 3" scream at some point, maybe encore break.

Just reminiscing about this show this morning. The car getting towed, etc. Wow, what a night.

I wonder if this recording is sitting on a HD somewhere still? Or was that talk just a mirage?

I wonder how many more shows are sitting there waiting for our hungry ears and souls?

Food for thought...
