highlight: tim on drums, already possibly looking the goofiest i\'ve ever seen him, reaching back for the mic to sing at the end of VT Song, getting tangled up in the stand, fighting it off, and knocking it to the ground. :lol::thumbsup:

completely agree with spacey here.. it may sound insane to say that this show lacked energy, with songs like DMB, TONT, DB, and MV on the setlist, but i felt it just wasn\'t there.. maybe because of the enormous room that hardly had any people in it, and the fact that after a few cheers, there was DEAD silence in between songs... you could actually hear yourself breathe.. while ellis made good with what he had, they were only dark reds and blues, which i think also contributed to the energy level being low..just a weird, weird show.
Now just WHY did Ellis not have his lights? Gencs mentioned a power issue but I find it hard to believe a theatre even a small one could not handle 5 dj scan 250\'s. .
The room had excellent quality sound. Maybe, I was taken back by the quality of sound and was listening to them differently. I\'ll have to give a listen to the disc and see how I feel about. I may have just had a bad night and just didn\'t connect. It\'s possible.

The spacey quality to their recent jams is heard in all it\'s glory on this recording thanx to the acoustics it seems and of course the stellar diligence(sp?) of the taper.
the sound is pretty good, yeah, but where is the crowd? it sounds like they\'re playing to a half a dozen mute people. maybe the few of those that did make it were exhausted from the show in NH the night before, but it sounds like its just lacking that overall rowdiness and energy that I love about the Breakfast crowd.
