Unreal! Great show! Mayfly was a top 3 version for sure. STL seemed like it went on for 30 minutes and was fucking glorious.
Some vocals were a little pitchy at times but that was I think to be expected. All the jams owned and owned hard!

Great to see everyone and great to have Jordan back even it\'s just a show or 2.  Brought back some great memories and reminded me that Sequoias organ chops have never been filled!

A couple of setlist notes:

- "No Quarter" tease in May Fly by Jordan
- There was definitely a tease (that I couldn\'t place) in the keyboard solo preceding The Chase, I\'m sure somebody will get it from the recording
- Jordan on harmonica for VT Song

What a fantastic show! jam > May Fly might be my favorite opener, and last night proved why. It really set the tone for the rest of the night. I was a little disappointed to hear Tim sing the lead on May Fly, but was definitely appeased when Jordan started to belt out Puppetry. I\'m pretty sure everybody knew that The Chase was coming at some point last night, but it was still a top notch jam. Doughboy has never really stopped being "Jordan\'s song", and the crowd responded with the biggest reaction of the night. YEM was first for me live, and it was flawless- as was the jam into Son of Simpleton with Tim and Jordan trading riffs.

Taboo was a good call as a second set opener- a great way to get people back into the groove after setbreak. I don\'t like to throw around the term "best ever", but See the Light was definitely different than any other version I\'ve heard, in a very good way. You can add Hush to list of covers that the Breakfast plays better than the original*, Chris was laying down some great beats throughout. There\'s nothing to be said about Mooboo\'s that you haven\'t already assumed to be true: The crowd went nuts and the band rocked the fuck out. Say what you will about The Vermont Song, it certainly isn\'t going to be mistaken for a song off of The Yes Album in terms of composition, but I don\'t think anybody in attendance had a problem with it. Great jamming with Tim going nuts and Chris nailing a great bass solo.

One of two things has happened: Either Jordan got even better since leaving The Breakfast or I forgot how good he is. He was definitely a reminder to me, after hearing some recent Breakfast + Stoops and Breakfast Trio, that the band needs a full-time keyboardist. The obvious call would be to deem Jordan the MVP of the show, but, emotions aside, it really was a solid full-band effort. I know I\'ve missed some epics this year, but last night and 8/30 are my frontrunners for favorite show of the year.

* I realize that Deep Purple is not the original artist on "Hush", but at this point it\'s really only a cover for them in the sense that "Respect" is a cover for Aretha Franklin.

What an amazing, emotional show!  Seeing Jordan play with them again and sing his songs was unreal, something I never thought would happen after he left.  Doughboy and See the Light were fantastic, I definitely felt myself getting a little teary during those songs.  It probably won\'t happen, but I\'m really hoping Jordan will play with them again! :)
