so glad to seem memory of a free festival show back up. i LOVE their version!!!
well, this ain\'t it..
more of an accidental jam that turned into MOAFF. not a full version by any means, but a fantastic way to cap off the night, nonetheless.
terrific show. SHORT first set (~52 minutes), and i felt like they were just getting going after quite a monster puppetry. beef barley was also quite huge, but i feel like the
jam > SB
stole the set. absolutely one of the best
jam >\'s i\'ve ever heard out of them.
language was a great tone-setter for the second set. lots of dancing and smiling, and that\'s never a bad thing. psygn was great, and very well placed. i turned to wolf during SCA and said it was the best SCA ever - they were doing really great things..
and then came gladys. now, i\'m usually not all gaga over gladys like everyone else, but i LOVED this one. might be the best one i\'ve ever heard, or at least the one i enjoyed the most. the jam got really "different", and strayed away quite a bit from your typical gladys riffs. the segues into and out of the drum solo were PERFECT. it just sounded extremely natural. and i have to say, this was one of the
cleanest drum solos i\'ve ever heard adrian play. just extremely tight, precise playing the entire time.
it\'s funny - two years ago i would have found something else to do during shakedown, but it was a really nice surprise last night. and there was no one in the place who minded that they were playing it either, because *everyone* was moving more than they moved the entire night while they were playing it. now
that is good cover selection/placement. there were possibly more teases than i was able to account for as well.
intension was a nice rockin\' encore, but it just felt like there was something else coming, and that wouldn\'t be it. the MOAFF "jam" ended up being that something, and again, it was something that was perfectly placed. i just couldn\'t do anything but smile at that point.
a solid
9. i really can\'t find much else to complain about than the length, as the show just made it over 2 hours total. i definitely could have taken more the way they were playing last night.
oh, and once again, the grilled veggie wrap at the church proves to be one of the tastiest things on the planet. SO GOOD!
fantastic to see everyone last night, and thanks to mikey, princess, and doyle for sharing in what was probably the quickest 6 hours in a car that i\'ve ever been a part of. absolutely awesome time. :thumbsup:
