Scheezun Fricken Rice, Mang!
I was the foo\' who got to introduce the band at this show. Reading the setlist is probably good and all, but actually being there was something like witnessing some kind of rock-god miracle! I was glued to the very front rail at the phat rustic wooden "Chapel stage" for this entire set, save for the times when I had to seriously shake that ass to cope with the undeniable sonic onslaught. The wasted blonde hotty with the Xena warrior princess scream was obviously feelin the love too. Yummy.
This was my 3rd PB show (BHouse cincy and Wokenboke before), and it was by far the phattest. I\'m only just starting to realize how special this group is, in the grand scheme of "jambands." I used to rave like a damned lunatic about a band called BIG ASS TRUCK from Memphis. I could never effective describe exactly what is was that made that band so badass, but PB tapped very close to that exact same feeling in me at Terrapin.
Now if you Jedis would only start hitting Cincy on a regular basis...
(Jack Quinn\'s or Mad Frog would probably be better than Barrelhouse)
The Terrapin Hill Harvest fest had around 36 acts total, ranging from Grisman to GFE to Yonder to Oteil to the Wailers etc etc etc...
Of this entire sick-ass lineup, PB did it the best for me personally. OM Trio also gets the big phat nod since they also slayed the dragon on the night before.
Thanks for the utter phatness y\'all. I\'ll be making trips to see you again soon.
