after the show, peck said he thought the first set from last night was better than either from the turkeytour sullys show. at first i couldnt agree with him. just the run of the november shows, porters>thanksgiving>knitting factory>sullys, was just an amazing breakfast run and the buildup to the sullys show made it even greater to me. but as last nights show kept creeping in my brain, last night and into the painful swirl of I-91 at 7:30am, and further into my snowed-in couch-a-rama today, I have come to the realization that it was...
It seems that every time I get to a show, this band is playing at least two "best version ever"s. This is an amazing thing because it means that they keep getting better. amazing and frightening. with the minds and imaginations of all the creative factors in the breakfast, they have the ability to do things nobody has thought of in ways nobody could have imagined.....
sullys is my new official best place to see a breakfast show. last night the belt changed hands from longtime champion callahans. There are so many great angles and views to watch the show from. the place has a great crowd and coolass environment for a venue.
my first set highlights were the amazing great big firey jam, where timmy just grabbed the crowd buy their faces and tore them off collectively.... and are you ser with the Dimension 5 > Attraction To Shade Ditty?
The No Regret > What The Funk** > See The Light^ was some of the freshest, interesting, and musically amazing music of the night. I was not expecting a HLH especially after getting one recently on Timmy Tour, but I am still wondering what I heard. I dont think my earholes could take it by that point. which is why I had to go for a walk to the smoking tent when Schumacher came up and Whole Lotta Love started. I was spent physcially and I just needed a breather, well turns out I missed the best part of the evening....
which was Don (Greenleaved from the boards), falling onto timmys pedals and knocking over the micstand mid whole lotta love. from the recounts I heard, timmy played it off and fixed it like the true rockstar he is. thats all good, hell, I have done the same thing at a hubinger street show back in the day, but the real problem I have is not with someone who is so drunk and diggin the show that they fall into the band, the real problem i have is when someone is so drunk at an aftershow party that they leave the party with your sneakers, leaving you with their queer ass nike tennis sneakers. good thing they fucking fit. so don, if you are out there, i want my adidas back....
Walshy, Happy Birthday!!!!
