Hey..Bryan in Aberdeen here. I would have to say that out of the 5 shows I\'ve seen now this one was by far the best. Aberdeen only has 24k but the scene here is great. I\'ve been spreading the word to many in the area and the several of the older crowd that were in attendance were very impressed. I was actually disappointed that more of the older musicians in town didnt show up. There were a lot of random kids that showed up just for the recreational aspect but there were also many that I\'ve talked too that were blown away.
The venue is below several high end condos in an old Ballroom and about 1/2 way through the first set the promoters were getting noise complaints. The guys running sound were struggling all night with the sound and they usually have bands setup in the band shell originally meant for acoustic instruments without a Mesa Boogie and Adrian in the room. The PA simply couldnt keep up. Once 2nd set started the guys turned down a bit and the sound was great. Then about 2/3 through the set they realized that the PA was able to do itself justice and there was some singing but the instrumental **** was great and kept the crowds attention the entire time.
Overall...great show. Was nice to meet Stephen and (sorry I forgot your name) "the other guy." Look forward to TB\'s next visit to Aberdeen. Next time it will be a different venue.

haha. we\'ll see after xrays. not everyones so **** lucky
-
Maybe they\'ll play Flashlight next show... They teased it last month. No?
I kid, I kid.... Sucks that happened, hope you are healed.

keep cryin. won\'t change much
-
yea, 4 times in 2008 is not nearly enough. kind of surprising, really.
-
sometimes they dont WANT to play certain songs. this being one of them at this point, apparently. ep 2 was on the porland ME list right before tour, but they ditched it. i\'m sure they have had a longer ep 2 hiatus than this one
-
it was a trio tour, duh!
remember how long it took them to bust it out last time they went trio? i know, matts back. whatev. we\'ll get that ****, but i wouldn\'t hold your breath.
i like eppy 2 best of all, but i\'d take a eppy 1 and 3 in the same set with no complaints.
seriously that 2nd set makes me wanna cry (the good cry, of course). please tell me this was taped.
Point being? They could still play it. I know the reason why now, so it\'s moot, but them being a trio doesn\'t give them an excuse to not play Eppy 2 seeing as there are no definitive keyboard lines.

i\'m gonna need a p value for that one
f(x)=((p-1)/c)^(.3prs) where f(x) is the crowd size, c is the cover charge, r is the radius of distance from the venue, s is the number of other shows in that radius that night, and p is the population in that radius.

The lesson here is that often times, contrary to intuition, crowd size is inversely proportionate to population size. And sometimes it isn\'t.
trippy

Great setlist. Nice. Put down the mics and just shred. Love the concept.
Shows in Bumblefuck often end up raging because The Breakfast is the biggest (or only) act in town. The plus side is that you can take over the town for the night and have great show. The minus is that these people never leave Bumblefuck and they also don\'t always care who the band is. They just go out and rage to whoever is playing. Which is super cool of them, don\'t get me wrong. But if you ask them in two weeks who they were raging to on 10/21 they might have no idea. City shows might draw a smaller crowd but every person there usually chose to be there over the 20 other things they could have done that night. You get very few accidental attendees in the city, and can count on some support from those people in the future. It\'s all part of the ups and downs of touring.

I\'d much rather hear Eppy 3 right now, only because I\'ve never gotten a live Eppy 3 and have had 2 2\'s.
Fuckin sick setlist. I wonder if OE started @ the 3:24, 3:35, or 4:42 (Epoxy cut) mark? Goddamn I need some live TB. I hate school at the moment and listening to OE makes me want to run away, or dance away I guess.

It\'s a bummer. I\'ll take 2 over 3 & 1 any day of the week. I mean, that\'s a given.
-
was there a reason for all instrumental-ness?
looks ser
"the vocals were a bigtime sorry chip, so no one felt like singing."
didn\'t catch that they were all instrumentals....
some people hate all instrumentals/"too much jamming" but I think it\'s a great idea, every now and then.

It\'s Terry Francona\'s hometown.
And a quick look at Wikipedia says that it was also the home of L. Frank Baum. I wonder if the Lollipop Guild was alongside at the show?
