really really sick show.
canton rages! can\'t wait till next time!
hopefully some of the many enthusiastic newbs in attendance will be back.
people were really groovin and the band really responded by with a fantastic performance.
It was one of those really high peaking dance party jump up and down sweaty floor stomping rage fests of old.
It was also super funky and dirty with lots of really thick baselines and reggae rythyms.
Throw a couple really epic harmonic convergences.
Some off the wall spacey jams.
Lots of shredding.
a wicked techno section.
And always back to the hard raging classic style
yadaydayda
end of the night Ya got yourself a pretty amazing performance
It was one of those shows where the set list was irrelevant because they just played the
**** out of anything they set into. STL, queeb, HB and VT song were all among or decidedly the best versions I have ever heard.
None of the jams were typical.
Also as mentioned I have NEVER heard the vocals so crisp. I could understand every single word they sung which has never happened before.
Dangle threw down so many insane bass lines and solos he is so good he can really carry a show on his back. D-Man side was where it was at last night.
I felt after the show that they had really turned a corner as a group like they did the weekend of red square/mezzanote with matt. or maybe they turned it last weekend. but they were almost there when I saw them 3 weeks ago in ithaca/cuse but now they are past it and really throwing down. The midwest run and Cali is gonna be sick. and when they get back is gonna be even sicker.
Can not wait for whatever the next show I hit up is.
side note-the snow was INSANE on the way home I hope the band made out alright as they had to drive 14 hours right through it. It started right outside canton and got really bad really fast. Seracuse was an all out blizzard at 4 am. It took me 50 minutes to drive the last 15 miles of the trip behind a snow plow with both plows down plowing the entire road which had about 6 inches of heavy wet snow and chunked out stuff all over it. Highways were almost as bad and visibility was like 5% because it was snowing so hard and the biggest flakes I have ever seen. The breakfast snow condition predictor is definitely more accurate than the weather man.
But it was well worth it!!!!!
