As of last night, I\'m convinced this band could be the next big thing.

I was in attendance for the 1st one, but missed the last 2 weeks.

I will be there next Wednesday for the final throwdown

WABO?

Great show.  The band is tighter than ever - and there now seems to be an added level or guitar effects that are making their way into the Fu sound.  Always a treat, Tim!
  Caught last night\'s 1st set live - and most of the 2nd set online.  Kudos to the A/V team for the now 7 camera shoot - and even better than that, their use of UStream\'s \'Producer Pro\' technology.  If you haven\'t checked in with the simulcast recently, you really must do so next week.  Really takes the Kung Fu experience to a next level!!!  Better yet, go there now and check out last night\'s production:

what time is the band actually going to start? if it\'s not too, too late, i could be a maybe. possibly.

Both nights so far were about 10:30...

that being said, 1st show they were getting used to the room and 2nd show Tim got stuck in traffic.  I\'m hoping for a 10:00 start time tonight

thx nels!

Diana, you have to make one of these, it\'s Bridgeport!

A 10 pm real start time would be perfect, but it\'s also the crowd.  At 9:30 the room is half full.  The room doesn\'t get completely filled until 10:30-11 so the band waits for more people to show up.  If the room was filled at 9pm. The band would be on at 9:30.

If they actually start at 10, people should be there. If the event says they start at 10 and they start at 11:30, that just sucks. I find it insulting and unprofessional. It\'s not fair to the fans who are actually there on time.

Ser biz as expected....good turnout......sucks being an old **** cause i couldnt even make it to setbreak....next week, setbreak and beyond!!!!!  Thank You Fu!!!!

when the show is on a wednesday and setbreak starts at midnight, you\'re absolved. good times last night. i only stuck around through the first song of the second set, but it seemed like they started to loosen up a bit. the only thing that was lacking was a tripping, shirtless dude in the front row throwing dollar bills at the band. oh wait...

So I if I can get there by, say 11:40 this week, I\'ll catch the entire 2nd set. That\'s worth a little a hurry, I think.

oh, and big ups the the audio/visual crew (chrisfitz/kenraflowitz/mattvallo) in streaming/taping this. i know i won\'t be able to hit all of these, and it\'s great to know that i can watch them live (or after the fact). i obviously didn\'t watch the stream last night, but i was able to catch a few shots of the stage...i especially like the view that looks over adrian\'s shoulder...don\'t see that view often enough

 During one of the songs the guy was "dancing" holding 2 dollar bills in his hand and then when the song ended he offered the bills to Rob Sommerville.  He literally held it up to Rob\'s face trying to get him to take it.  Rob, being the professional that he is, refused the $2.

Wed night tripping your face off...must be nice (sigh)

Ha...I saw that kid slam into a woman with a full glass of guinness....He didnt realize there was beverage involved.  It wasnt her first rodeo because she worked the impact so well that not only didnt she spill a drop, but the liquid barely even moved in the glass...kudos to you lady, a lesser person would have dousched themselves and surrounding people with a Guinness bath...

Matt,

I tried the front of the room with the wifi connection and couldn\'t even get a signal strong enough to run the full bandwith test.

I think the best bet is going to be using the hardwire in the back.
