First off let me just say that River Street Jazz Cafe is my new favorite Breakfast venue. The room is big and spacious. The stage has ample room. The green room is relaxing and quite chill. Everyone that works there is friendly and has a great attitude. And the owner/promoter Tom is one of the nicest and funniest people I have ever met in the live music biz.....
The show was great as well. Johnny Upstates broken lightshow did return, but only for Hard Luck as there was some sort of power issue on stage. Although Walsh was convinced upstate just had the lights set to infra red. Regardless the lights were amazing. The sound was top notch as well.....
The band was on fire, per usual, all night long. It was great to hear the return of CMSS. Hard Luck jam was intense and a straight rocker.....Its been a while since I have heard Eschers 1&2 together. The Love Lake ruled the set in my opinon....Regardless this show was all about the second set. A monster of a set. However, Jason, I am not sure about the Late and the Great ending jam however. Now unless you confirmed that with Tim or someone in the band after the show, I would have to say that there was no Late and The Great ending jam... Regardless it was amazing and the Gladys > Intension had potential to kill mofuckers it was so good....
$1.50 PBR Tallboys were good as hell especially after a nice base of some king of beers......
Jason, It was great hanging out with you and Brittney. You guys are top shelfers. Mason and Holly, thanks for all the laughs both nights, and for not throwing me out of your hotel room for screaming jibberish all morning. Colin, great to see ya broseph....thank for rockin. And walshy, it was fun doin the ball stompin get down dance with ya up front. It was a fuckin Paaaaaaahty all weekend long...
