:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

great night! i\'m beat. :tired:

me, lisa, todd, gray, and mike left staven around 6:30... met wolfman at The Hangar around 8... phaddy nachos, dank beer, and heady wings (which we seriously overordered on!).. :drool: SO good... this place is like a yankee-hater\'s paradise, but i love it! it\'s a good thing i\'m ~90 miles from it though, cause i\'d be about 400 lbs. right now if it were close! :chug::gulp:

looked at the clock and noticed it was 9:30, so i figured we\'d better get our asses in gear... unfortunately for the people with me, my ass already was in gear! :fart:

perfect timing, we walked into pearl street just as the band had taken the stage. HLH was a strong opener, and a clever segue into Score before finishing it... nicely done..

thin crowd on this thursday night at pearl street... prolly had something to do with Naughty By Nature playing over at UMass.. apparently a lot of people are still, in fact, down with OPP... not knocking NBN at all, as i would have loved to check them out myself... anyways, i just never like being able to hear my own claps, but those of us who were there got to see the show that we wanted to see, as the band was playing all the fan favorites!

and by the way, it was great to see everyone again... been too long, especially you, Mr. Q! feels like forever...

anyways, hard to point out highlights in a show that was this good.. Hey Hey What Can I Do Memory Of A Free Festival was a great choice for the only cover of the night.. the standalone Mooboo\'s kicked ass, and Scheme > ? > Scheme was executed nicely...

The fuckin Chase :thechase:, as always, had everyone groovin\' to close the set.. :disco:

encore featured the much-requested Phaddy/Rufus sandwich (hmm... would you call this an open-faced sandwich??), and should have ended with WPOA, but unfortunately, as they were starting the leading jam, ron was told that \'that was it\'... so it was kind of an uncomfortable, unexpected ending to an otherwise very strong show...

so chalk this one up as a well-played crowd-pleaser! thanks to the band for listening to our setlist thoughts and piecing something together with a little bit of everything. :thumbsup:

Dave, you forgot the real shock of the night.  After the show the fine security at Pearl St. didn\'t throw us all out before the fucking lights even went up!  It\'s good to see that they\'re not as hostile at midnight as they are at 1:00am.

I guess this has already been said, but this was the first real PB show I\'ve been too. I saw them at Hobart College Fallfest 2002 and they were definitely the best band playing there.

But the other night at Pearl Street... holy shit! I honestly had no idea these guys were that rediculously good! The Phaddy jam was sick. Actually, pretty much the whole show would qualify as being "sick". My mind was blown.

I hope you guys come back to Fallfest at Hobart next year and jam out like you did at Pearl Street. If you come back I\'ll definitely work the publicity wheels to get more people out on the lawn for the show.

Best $13 I ever spent on a show without a doubt. Keep that shit up and you guys are going to be seriously famous!
