Tuna, after hearing my first Existential Funk last night I fully understand your passion for this tune! HOLY SHIT! I thought the guys played it with great intensity last night, really nailing the hard-hitting progressive parts. And Tim and Chris\' vocal exchange towards the end was just so beautiful, singing the "look a little bit harder/higher/closer this time" lines just a little bit out of sync with each other so that the singing created this amazing melody. Their voices sounded great together. Like I said, just beautiful.

The show as a whole was impressive, as it always is, with some sick jams throughout.

Crash Mansion is such a great venue, from a fan\'s perspective. It has a mad chill vibe, with leather couches, tables with little candles, stone walls that are dimly light, friendly bartenders, etc. And thank God they did away with that encasement Adrian played behind last time!!

The crowd last night was pretty good, too. The early start time was weird at first, but it was great to have people filtering INTO the show as the band was playing instead of people leaving b/c it\'s past midnight and they\'re just exhausted. I definitely liked the early start. BUT NEXT TIME THEY NEED TWO SETS!!!

:that:  The open bar was nice too, even though it was only for their "house vodka" mixed drinks.  Overall, a nice atmosphere and I hope they play this place again (...TWO SETS of course!)  It was great seeing you, Diana, I\'m def looking forward to this coming weekend!  It was also a real treat to hear a GBFBITS.  I know a lot of .infoers aren\'t crazy about it, but it\'s just so damn fun!  Existential Funk is growing on me slowly too, I\'m sure it will keep getting better & better. :disco:

Oh shoot! I should have taken my empty beer bottle to cash in.
Then my beer would have been $7.95 instead of $8.00!
Live and learn!

 It was great seeing you, Diana, I\'m def looking forward to this coming weekend!

[KEN RAFLOWITZ]

Bud light is horse piss! I\'d rather be broke!
Throw in an extra strapless bra for me also!

[boombox]

Well, this.infoer thinks fOR a short set, that\'s a pretty damned good setlist - yes, I agree: GBFBITS IS FUN!!

[galenas]

too much singing in GBFBITS for this dot infoer, but yeah, i agree it\'s a fun song.

[Jim Cobb]

FPZ>Puppetry>FPZ was stupid good.  

stupid.

[frolfer]

Great little setlist here. Wish I could\'ve been there. Count me among the GBFBITS lovers, that and Epi 3 the night before would\'ve sent me into orbit!

FPZ>Puppetry>FPZ was stupid good.  

stupid.

yes it was. and doughboy was properly raged...well done! EFunk is starting to grow on me. nice show, but the 9 pm start was pretty bunk (as was the open bar). as for the venue, i\'d prefer sullivan hall (or anywhere that would allow an 11pm start and/or two sets)...feels like a better fit for them. i\'ll take breakfast in the city whenever though

So you don\'t like GBFBITS because of too much singing but you like EFunk?
Hmmm that\'s seems odd to me.
I guess because I think there is too much singing in EFunk.
:lol:
This band has something for everyone.
This band is ser rad.

this was my first time hearing efunk.  not sure how i feel about it yet.  but then again it\'s taken me a while to get into ALL the new material.  except metropolis.  i loved that shit immediately.

i want to hear that fpz>puppetry>fpz again.
