First night in the Midwest. The Verve is a old, narrow, long bar in downtown Terre Haute with stage set up in the right rear corner. The band was using the drums and keyboards from the MacPodz. Show got started a little late. I got there at 9:30 and the MacPodz weren\'t even there yet. Short set, only about 55 minutes. Pretty sedate, but appreciative crowd. The band was tight, even after their tedious drive from Canton, NY. Mayfly was the highlight of the night for me, the jam was sick, one of the best versions I\'ve seen in my limited show total. And from Mayfly on, they brought the funk and set the tone for the MacPodz. If you love the funk, you gotta check them out when they come out east. I\'m not a "funk guy", and I was pleasantly surpised. Nice guys too, hung out with a couple of them at the bar after their set. The Mousetrap is next. Peace.
