Setlist: 2005-01-14 - Middle East Upstairs; Cambridge, MA

[Igziabeher]

I don\'t have the exact setlist, so don\'t hold your breathes, but if that wasn\'t the sickest single set of music last night, then I don\'t know what was.  It was pretty much 1 2+ hour long set, and it was phenomenal on all fronts.  The Breakfast just blew everything out of proportion, but in that really kickass why that they only know how.  The set opened w/ a sick Beef Barley w/ a Jammed out intro that made me think they were gonna play Mayfly instead.  Some highlights of the show were an intense Echinda\'s Arf, a huge Fiery Ball, and Rufus> Shakedown Street.  You really got to see the entire setlist as a whole to have a full appreciation for how hard they brought it last night.  I just like to announce that Freddie challenged me to see who can call a random segue the fastest, and I put him down with my speed and accuracy on Language of the Gods.  Great seeing everyone as usual, and all you poon tangs who couldn\'t make the ride out to Boston, I\'ll see y\'all tonight in Palmer.

how could i possibly forget to mention the fact that the show was sold out to the hills,half an hour before the boys went on...stuffed house.borderline uncomfortable!

No encore, or was it the Rufus>Shakedown?

[freddiewaht]

no encore..lights came on,still a pretty packed house,but not  a huge response at all...

[Igziabeher]

Me and Jocelyn both had to work the sneeking people through the back door routine.  What Boston venue is the next step up from the Middle East?  The crowd was definitely digging it, the crowd was probably too exhausted at the end to give a huge response.  Either way, its time they move up a bit in that city.  I\'d say if they booked a gig w/ a somewhat competent band(instead of all the crapass openers) say AGP or something, and play the Paradise, then they could really turn some heads.

Great night overall.  They were turning people away at the door and telling them to come back in 30 minutes.  Joce and I were at the back door at one point letting folks in.  But a BIG thank you to everyone who helped promote the show.  Seeing all the new faces in the crowd was great and watching them groove was even better.

Grassroots baby.  Keepin it real!

That setlist was not quite right, This is the way it went...........
drums>beef barley, inner glimpse, no glove no love, wake up in a coma, great big firery ball in the sky>echidna\'s arf>fairy, gladys pimp and kangaroos with me>language of the gods, no regret, doughboy, Rufus>shakedown st.>spunk



The changes from the setlist I saw was, No tom sawyer?? Not sure why this was written down, it was echidna\'s arf.
spunk came after shakedown to end the show. There was no encore because they ran out of time. It is a law in boston they have to stop at 1:30 am. They were in danger of the plug being pulled. I was back there taping and two people came out repeatedly to tell josh to give them the signal lights went on etc.
If anyone wants the show I will be happy to B+P.

[freddiewaht]
