Where to start?
My head hurts today, I don\'t know why. Maybe, it was the $55 bottle of Tequila that WALSH made everyone swig? maybe, it was the umpteenth beer in the lot? (Have to add that WALSH made a SER good suggestion on bring beers, I walked out of a Breakfast show with money in my pocket!) maybe, it was the princess and her Godly bottle of Jagermeister? Maybe, it was the SER fucking music being served? I don\'t know but I guess I don\'t need to know.
First time I have ever experience a true lot scene at a Breakfast show. I even got my little pre-show and setbreak one man drum circle. Thanks WALSH for the talking drum demo.
This show was unreal. The boys have been on fire lately and it is good to see them this way. SER conversions at this summers festivals. Frankly Po Zest bustout. Was talking to Daffadil on the ride up and she mentioned how she wanted to hear that song, so did I. Never did I think they would open and close the 1st set with it. Grand. Great to hear Cosmic Spaceway Rhyme again. Doughboy is a crowd pleaser. Barley has been unreal as of late, keeps getting better.
Fresh Cut > jam > Attraction To Shade Ditty > Question Mark And The Mind > Octopus\'s Garden
Tasty sandwich here! Highlight for me for the set. Never thought that I would hear Octopus\'s Garden last night. Good tune, like the beat. Best Gravity to date, IMHFO. Even better that it went back into Po Zest!
Setbreak lot scene, \'nuff said.
2nd set NGNL opener was a terrific way to get the energy going again. Then all hell broke loose.
Gladys Pimp And Kangaroos With Me > Willie The Pimp > Dig, Puppetry > Mooboo\'s Voodoo (Episode 2) > Wake Up In A Coma > Mooboo\'s Voodoo (Episode 2) > Puppetry, Space City Affair > See The Light > Memory Of A Free Festival
I think this speaks for itself. I can not explain the feelings I held for this band at that moment. They were out of this world.
Encore of Funky Bills was IMO a little rushed because they ran out of time? Either way, they could not top what they had done without ripping into a Buquebus or a Rufus for the encore or even a Buquebus>Rufus might have put it over the top. Wishful thinking, but I dream.
They owned me and I was a slave to the traffic light.
ellis-d, I think I love you. The lights are phenomenal! Thank You for the added experience.
Thanks to DW for driving, P&S for the big couch, althoug I don\'t remember coming home. Jason-A thanks for the discs. Can\'t wait to relive a few of those moments. So glad that you made it down. Ron good to see you there too. Hope you travel home was safe and carefree. JKing, I knew in my hear that you would make it before the 1st set ended. You got there right in time for Fresh Cut and the mayhem that followed. Inertia great to finally meet you. Thanks to the entire Breakfast community for one hell of a night!
and now...
Where are my heady fan Spaceshots??
The fan-cam last night snapped 140 shots of the audience. I still have a little work to do with adjusting to the lights. The proof of how fucking hot it was is in the pics. I will upload as soon as I become motivated enough. I figure that DW and Todd do such a great job at snapping pics of the band that no more are needed, so I decided to take pics of the fans having fun. A lot of fun. A little side note, I tried my best to open windows all night, especially when the cool rain started.
That just took all my energy from me. I am never drinking again. Enjoy the rest of your day.
Peace
